(3) The Two Stone Tablets Incident ① The Meaning of the Two Stone Tablets Exodus 20:2 "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery." Exodus describes Moses leading the Israelites to Mount Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments from God. Exodus 20:2 refers to the two stone tablets God had initially created. However, when Moses went up Mount Sinai and did not come down for a considerable period of time, the people, led by Aaron, made a golden calf and began to worship idols. Exodus 32:1-4 When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered together and said to Aaron, “ Up, make us gods who will go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him. ” Aaron said to them, “ Take off the gold rings that are in the ears of your wives, your sons, and your daughters, and bring them to me. ” Then all the people took the gold rings...

He tells them to simply observe what God is doing. This is salvation. Even today, with nothing we can do, people struggle to survive. Salvation is God's work, and all we need to do is enter into the faith He gives us. However, people believe and act according to their own thoughts and circumstances, regardless of the faith God gives them. Therefore, this faith changes depending on the circums...

  4. Christ in Exodus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy   (1) Exodus ① Moses Moses shares many similarities with Jesus Christ, to the point where he foreshadows him. He was similar to him from the moment he was born into this world. Matthew 2:16 "Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the Magi, was exceedingly angry. He sent out and put to death all the male children in Bethlehem and in all its districts who were two years old and under, according to the time which he had carefully determined from the Magi." The pain of death began from the very birth of Jesus. Exodus 1:15-16 “ Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, one named Shiphrah and the other Puah, saying, ‘ When you assist the Hebrew women in childbirth, look at the birth canal. If it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, she shall live. ’” To save him, Moses' mother placed him in a reed basket and set him adrift on the Nile River. This basket, called an ark, was likened to the ...
