The book begins with a new king of Egypt who feels that there are too many people of Israel. He says “‘Come on, let us deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight out against us, and so get them up out of the land’” (Exodus 1:10). The Pharaoh then makes the Hebrew people slaves, and to stop them from multiplying even more, he orders that every son born be thrown into the river.

There was a woman who had a young boy though, and after hiding him for three months, she decides to put him in a basket, and into the river in hope that something good may become of him. Her daughter observes, and he is taken in by the Pharaoh’s wife. She decides to call him

Although Moses is scared, he delivers God’s message and says, “‘Let my people go”’ (Exodus 5:1). The Pharaoh does not believe that the Hebrew God is more powerful though. To show him that God is in fact more powerful, Moses turns his rod into a serpent, but the Pharaoh’s magicians do the same so God is forced to do more powerful things.

When the Pharaoh dies, the children of Israel are stuck in slavery, and they cry to God for help. The Lord says, “‘I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry…; and I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians”’ (Exodus 3:7-8). The Lord then sends Moses back to Egypt to confront the new Pharaoh.

Exodus is a spiritual journey. It tells the story of the development of the people of Israel as they went from slavery to freedom. They come to learn that nothing is possible without God. They see his power everyday, and know that they are free because God has allowed them to be. Without the Lord’s power they would not be able to make a full transition
