Bible Sprint Day 2

Questions:
  1. What is the connection between Genesis 39:12 and the naked man in Mark? Is there one?
  2. Genesis 49:31 – Why the change to a first person singular pronoun?
  3. What connection is there between the slaughter of the innocents in Exodus 1 and the slaughter of the innocents in Matthew?
  4. What is the significance of the three signs of Moses in Exodus 4?
Observations:
  1. In Exodus 7, God says to wave the rod over the water and Aaron strikes the water. Later, God says speak to the rock and Moses strikes it. One is acceptable, the other is not.
    1. Ex7 strike/wave/strike
  2. Exodus 7 “strike” with blood, “smite” with frogs.
  3. Ex 12:43-51 Only members of Israel could eat the OT Paschal meal. Only members of the New Israel may eat the NT Paschal meal.
  4. Ex 13:1-2, 11-16 Verses to remember for later
    1. God claims the lives of the firstborn of all who were in Egypt for the first Pascha. The Egyptians and their livestock he kills while the faithful Israelites he gives the chance to redeem their firstborn
      1. Israelites were proven faithful by complying with God’s commands, esp. the doorposts.
  5. Exodus 14:19 There were both an angel and a cloud going before Israel.
