Exodus PUP (ESV) - Precept Ministries International | Bible

ExodusLesson 1, Chapters 1–43. There is a map on page 11 that will show you the boundaries of the landpromised to the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as an everlastingpossession. If God promised Abraham and his offspring this land as aneverlasting possession, will it happen?4. Now in the light of what you saw in Genesis, read Exodus 1. The book ofExodus is printed out in the Appendix.As you read this chapter, double underline references to location because thisanswers the question “where” and, thus, gives you the geographicalcontext of the beginning of Exodus. Also mark references that would giveyou an indication of when something occurs. We suggest you mark timewith a green clock like this because it is easy to see at a glance.b. Observe who the main persons are in this chapter. List them and the factsyou observed about them on the page entitled “The Main Characters ofExodus 1” at the end of this lesson. Record the facts that will help youunderstand these people. These facts will tell you either who, what, when,where, why, or how. You will want to record what you learn about thesons of Israel, the king of Egypt who is referred to as Pharaoh, and themidwives.DAYTWOOur focus today will be Exodus 2 and the birth and early years of Moses, a manwhose name you will find repeated time and time again throughout the Word ofGod.
