Hi, and welcome back
to His Words are Life.
00:00:17.01\00:00:18.95
I'm Kelly Mowrer and today we're
going to read from the book of
00:00:18.98\00:00:22.20
Exodus. But before we
do, let's pray together.
00:00:22.23\00:00:24.53
Dear God, you see each one
of us just now as we're coming
00:00:24.56\00:00:30.00
apart to sit down with
your word for these few minutes.
00:00:30.03\00:00:33.75
Please be with us. Please send
your Holy Spirit to guide us as
00:00:33.78\00:00:39.03
we hear these words and may
they not just fall into our mind
00:00:39.06\00:00:44.18
in a surface way, but may
they be rooted deep in our heart
00:00:44.21\00:00:47.37
where they can grow and bring
fruit that will glorify your
00:00:47.40\00:00:51.58
name. That's what we long to
do; to make you happy with us.
00:00:51.61\00:00:54.41
We love you so much and
thank you for loving us. Amen
00:00:54.44\00:00:57.87
When we were last together,
we were reading of the plagues
00:00:57.90\00:01:02.32
falling on Egypt as Moses is
asking Pharaoh to let his, God's
00:01:02.35\00:01:07.41
people go and he is telling
Pharaoh at this point that
00:01:07.44\00:01:11.76
there is going to be
darkness over the land of Egypt,
00:01:11.79\00:01:14.03
not just any darkness, but
a darkness that can be felt.
00:01:14.06\00:01:16.75
We're picking it up
in chapter 10 of Exodus,
00:01:16.78\00:01:20.25
starting with verse 22. And
Moses stretched forth his hand
00:01:20.28\00:01:24.96
toward heaven; and there was
a thick darkness in all the land
00:01:24.99\00:01:28.31
of Egypt three days: They saw
not one another, neither rose
00:01:28.34\00:01:32.54
any from his place for 3 days:
but all the children of Israel
00:01:32.57\00:01:36.34
had light in their dwellings.
And Pharaoh called unto Moses
00:01:36.37\00:01:40.45
and said, Go ye, serve the Lord;
only let your flocks and your
00:01:40.48\00:01:44.18
herds be stayed: let your
little ones also go with you.
00:01:44.21\00:01:47.45
And Moses said, Thou must give
us also sacrifices and burnt
00:01:47.48\00:01:51.99
offerings that we may
sacrifice unto the Lord our God.
00:01:52.02\00:01:54.93
Our cattle also shall go
with us: there shall not an hoof
00:01:54.96\00:01:58.74
left behind; for thereof must we
take to serve the Lord our God;
00:01:58.77\00:02:02.86
and we know not with what we
must serve the Lord, until we
00:02:02.89\00:02:05.31
come thither. But the
Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart,
00:02:05.34\00:02:08.99
and he would not let them
go. And Pharaoh said unto him,
00:02:09.02\00:02:12.78
Get thee from me, take heed
to thyself, see my face no more;
00:02:12.81\00:02:16.94
for in that day thou
seest my face thou shalt die.
00:02:16.97\00:02:20.84
And Moses said, Thou hast spoken
well, I will see thy face again
00:02:20.87\00:02:26.95
no more. - We're continuing in
the book of Exodus, chapter 11.
00:02:26.98\00:02:31.73
This is the King James Version.
And the Lord said unto Moses,
00:02:31.76\00:02:35.73
Yet will I bring one plague more
upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt;
00:02:35.76\00:02:40.93
afterwards he will let you go
hence; when he shall let you go,
00:02:40.96\00:02:45.07
he shall surely thrust
you out hence altogether.
00:02:45.10\00:02:48.37
Speak now in the ears of the
people, and let every man borrow
00:02:48.40\00:02:52.68
of his neighbor, and
every woman of her neighbor,
00:02:52.71\00:02:55.40
jewels of silver, and jewels
of gold. And the Lord gave the
00:02:55.43\00:02:59.64
people favor in the sight of
the Egyptians. Moreover the man
00:02:59.67\00:03:03.61
Moses was very great in the
land of Egypt, in the sight of
00:03:03.64\00:03:06.44
Pharaoh's servants, and
in the sight of the people.
00:03:06.47\00:03:08.35
And Moses said, Thus saith the
Lord, About midnight will I go
00:03:08.38\00:03:13.26
out unto the midst of Egypt:
And all the firstborn in the
00:03:13.29\00:03:16.61
land of Egypt shall die, from
the firstborn of Pharaoh that
00:03:16.64\00:03:20.20
sitteth upon his throne,
even unto the firstborn of the
00:03:20.23\00:03:22.86
maidservant that is behind
the mill; and all the firstborn
00:03:22.89\00:03:26.10
of beasts. And there shall
be a great cry throughout all
00:03:26.13\00:03:29.64
the land of Egypt such as there
was none like it, nor shall be
00:03:29.67\00:03:33.61
like it anymore. But against
any of the children of Israel
00:03:33.64\00:03:37.27
shall not a dog move his
tongue, against man or beast:
00:03:37.30\00:03:41.18
that ye may know how that
the Lord doth put a difference
00:03:41.21\00:03:44.08
between the Egyptians and Israel
and all these thy servants shall
00:03:44.11\00:03:49.87
come down unto me, and bow
down themselves unto me, saying,
00:03:49.90\00:03:52.84
Get thee out and all the people
that follow thee: and after that
00:03:52.87\00:03:57.13
I will go out. And he went out
from Pharaoh in a great anger.
00:03:57.16\00:04:02.57
And the Lord said unto Moses,
Pharaoh shall not hearken unto
00:04:02.60\00:04:05.74
you; that my wonders may be
multiplied in the land of Egypt.
00:04:05.77\00:04:08.88
And Moses and Aaron did all
these wonders before Pharaoh:
00:04:08.91\00:04:12.60
and the Lord hardened Pharaoh's
heart, so that he would not let
00:04:12.63\00:04:16.37
the children of
Israel go out of his land.
00:04:16.40\00:04:18.35
Continuing with
Exodus chapter 12.
00:04:18.38\00:04:21.73
This is the King James Version.
00:04:21.76\00:04:22.82
And the Lord spake unto Moses
and Aaron in the land of Egypt,
00:04:22.85\00:04:27.50
saying, This month shall be unto
you the beginning of months:
00:04:27.53\00:04:31.62
it shall be the first
month of the year to you.
00:04:31.65\00:04:34.16
Speak ye unto all the
congregation of Israel,
00:04:34.19\00:04:37.13
saying, In the tenth day
of this month they shall take
00:04:37.16\00:04:40.43
to them every man a
lamb, according to the house of
00:04:40.46\00:04:44.27
their fathers, a lamb for
a house. And if the household
00:04:44.30\00:04:48.06
be too little for the lamb, let
him and his neighbor next unto
00:04:48.10\00:04:51.67
his house take it according
to the number of the souls;
00:04:51.70\00:04:54.41
every man according to his
eating shall make your count
00:04:54.44\00:04:58.14
for the Lamb. Your lamb shall be
without blemish, a male of the
00:04:58.17\00:05:02.88
first year: ye shall take it
out from the sheep, or from the
00:05:02.91\00:05:06.73
goats: And ye shall keep it up
until the 14th day of the same
00:05:06.76\00:05:09.32
month: and the whole assembly
of the congregation of Israel
00:05:09.35\00:05:12.66
shall kill it in the evening.
And they shall take of the blood
00:05:12.69\00:05:16.59
and strike it on the two
side posts and on the upper door
00:05:16.62\00:05:20.60
post of the houses, wherein they
shall eat it. And they shall eat
00:05:20.63\00:05:24.63
the flesh in that night, roast
with fire, and unleavened bread;
00:05:24.66\00:05:28.61
and with bitter herbs they shall
eat it. Eat not of it raw, nor
00:05:28.64\00:05:34.20
sodden at all with water, but
roast with fire; his head with
00:05:34.23\00:05:38.34
his legs, and with
the pertinence thereof.
00:05:38.37\00:05:40.43
And ye shall let nothing of
it remain until the morning;
00:05:40.46\00:05:44.18
and that which remaineth of it
until the morning ye shall burn
00:05:44.21\00:05:47.18
with fire. And thus shall ye
eat it; with your loins girded,
00:05:47.21\00:05:51.26
your shoes on your feet,
and your staff in your hand;
00:05:51.29\00:05:54.39
and ye shall eat it in haste;
it is the Lord's passover.
00:05:54.42\00:05:58.09
For I will pass through
the land of Egypt this night,
00:05:58.12\00:06:01.73
and will smite all the
first born in the land of Egypt,
00:06:01.76\00:06:04.97
both man and beast; and against
all the gods of Egypt I will
00:06:05.00\00:06:09.65
execute judgment: I am the Lord.
And the blood shall be to you
00:06:09.68\00:06:15.47
for a token upon the houses
where ye are: and when I see the
00:06:15.50\00:06:19.26
blood, I will pass over you, and
the plague shall not be upon you
00:06:19.29\00:06:23.99
to destroy you, when I
smite the land of Egypt.
00:06:24.02\00:06:26.78
And this day shall be unto
you for a memorial; and ye shall
00:06:26.81\00:06:31.37
keep it a feast to the Lord
throughout your generations;
00:06:31.40\00:06:34.02
ye shall keep it a feast
by an ordinance for ever.
00:06:34.05\00:06:37.08
Seven days shall ye
eat unleavened bread;
00:06:37.11\00:06:40.53
even the first day ye shall
put away leaven out of your
00:06:40.56\00:06:42.62
houses: for whosoever eateth
leavened bread from the 1st day
00:06:42.65\00:06:46.16
until the 7th day, that soul
shall be cut off from Israel.
00:06:46.19\00:06:49.70
And in the first day there
shall be an holy convocation,
00:06:49.73\00:06:53.06
and in the seventh day there
shall be an holy convocation
00:06:53.09\00:06:55.89
to you; no manner of work shall
be done in them, save that which
00:06:55.92\00:07:00.48
every man must eat,
that only may be done of you.
00:07:00.51\00:07:03.98
And ye shall observe the feast
of unleavened bread; for in
00:07:04.01\00:07:08.27
this selfsame day have I brought
your armies out of the land of
00:07:08.30\00:07:12.31
Egypt: therefore shall
ye observe this day in your
00:07:12.34\00:07:16.13
generations by an ordinance
for ever. In the first month,
00:07:16.16\00:07:20.36
on the fourteenth day of
the month, at even, ye shall eat
00:07:20.39\00:07:23.98
unleavened bread, until the one
and twentieth day of the month
00:07:24.01\00:07:27.52
at even. Seven days shall
there be no leaven found in your
00:07:27.55\00:07:32.95
houses: for whosoever
eateth that which is leavened,
00:07:32.98\00:07:35.93
even that soul shall be cut off
from the congregation of Israel,
00:07:35.96\00:07:39.18
whether he be a stranger, or
born in the land. Ye shall eat
00:07:39.21\00:07:43.74
nothing leavened; in all
your habitations shall ye eat
00:07:43.77\00:07:47.35
unleavened bread. Then Moses
called for all the elders of
00:07:47.38\00:07:51.66
Israel, and said unto them,
Draw out and take you a lamb
00:07:51.69\00:07:54.59
according to you
families, and kill the passover.
00:07:54.62\00:07:58.26
And ye shall take a bunch of
hyssop, and dip it in the blood
00:07:58.29\00:08:01.96
that is in the basin, and strike
the lintel and the two side
00:08:01.99\00:08:04.95
posts with the blood that is
in the basin; and none of you
00:08:04.98\00:08:07.50
shall go out at that door
of his house until the morning.
00:08:07.53\00:08:10.89
For the Lord will pass
through to smite the Egyptians;
00:08:10.92\00:08:14.72
and when he seeth the blood
upon the lintel, and on the two
00:08:14.75\00:08:18.13
side posts, the Lord will
pass over the door, and will not
00:08:18.16\00:08:21.25
suffer the destroyer to come
in unto your houses to smite
00:08:21.28\00:08:24.77
you. And ye shall observe this
thing for an ordinance to thee
00:08:24.80\00:08:28.81
and to thy sons forever. And it
shall come to pass, when ye be
00:08:28.84\00:08:33.65
come to the land which the Lord
will give you, according as he
00:08:33.68\00:08:36.98
hath promised, that ye
shall keep this service.
00:08:37.01\00:08:39.71
And it shall come to pass, when
your children shall say unto you
00:08:39.74\00:08:43.30
What mean ye by this
service? That ye shall say,
00:08:43.33\00:08:46.79
It is the sacrifice of the
Lord's passover, who passed over
00:08:46.82\00:08:50.95
the houses of the children of
Israel in Egypt, when he smote
00:08:50.98\00:08:54.19
the Egyptians, and delivered
our houses. And the people
00:08:54.22\00:08:58.88
bowed the head and worshipped.
And the children of Israel
00:08:58.91\00:09:03.03
went away, and did as the Lord
had commanded Moses and Aaron,
00:09:03.06\00:09:06.30
so did they. And it came to pass
that at midnight the Lord smote
00:09:06.33\00:09:11.35
all the firstborn in the land
of Egypt, from the firstborn
00:09:11.38\00:09:14.74
of Pharaoh that sat on
his throne unto the firstborn
00:09:14.77\00:09:17.91
of the captive that was in the
dungeon; and all the firstborn
00:09:17.94\00:09:21.10
of cattle. And Pharaoh rose
up in the night, he, and all his
00:09:21.13\00:09:25.33
servants, and all the Egyptians;
and there was a great cry
00:09:25.36\00:09:28.84
in Egypt; for there was
not a house where there was not
00:09:28.87\00:09:32.30
one dead. And he called
for Moses and Aaron by night,
00:09:32.33\00:09:36.57
and said, Rise up, and get
you forth from among my people,
00:09:36.60\00:09:39.78
both ye and the children of
Israel; and go, serve the Lord
00:09:39.81\00:09:42.82
as ye have said. Also take
your flocks and your herds,
00:09:42.85\00:09:45.73
as ye have said, and be
gone; and bless me also.
00:09:45.76\00:09:48.97
And the Egyptians were urgent
upon the people, that they might
00:09:49.00\00:09:53.02
send them out of the
land in haste; for they said,
00:09:53.05\00:09:55.54
We be all dead men. And
the people took their dough
00:09:55.57\00:09:59.42
before it was leavened, their
kneadingtroughs being bound up
00:09:59.45\00:10:02.63
in their clothes upon their
shoulders. And the children
00:10:02.66\00:10:05.44
of Israel did according to the
word of Moses; and they borrowed
00:10:05.47\00:10:08.88
of the Egyptians jewels of
silver, and jewels of gold,
00:10:08.91\00:10:12.26
and raiment: And the Lord gave
the people favor in the sight
00:10:12.29\00:10:16.38
of the Egyptians, so that
they lent unto them such things
00:10:16.41\00:10:19.44
as they required. And
they spoiled the Egyptians.
00:10:19.47\00:10:22.12
And the children of
Israel journeyed from Rameses
00:10:22.15\00:10:25.06
to Succoth about 600,000 on foot
that were men, beside children
00:10:25.09\00:10:29.58
And a mixed multitude went
up also with them; and flocks,
00:10:29.61\00:10:33.38
and herds, even very
much cattle. And they baked
00:10:33.41\00:10:37.25
unleavened cakes of the dough
which they brought forth out of
00:10:37.28\00:10:40.13
Egypt, for it was not leavened;
because they were thrust out of
00:10:40.16\00:10:43.50
Egypt, and could not tarry,
neither had they prepared for
00:10:43.53\00:10:46.60
themselves any victual. Now the
sojourning of the children of
00:10:46.63\00:10:50.07
Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was
430 years. And it came to pass
00:10:50.10\00:10:54.97
at the end of the 430
years, even the selfsame day
00:10:55.00\00:10:59.13
it came to pass, that all
the hosts of the Lord went out
00:10:59.16\00:11:03.24
from the land of Egypt. It
is a night to be much observed
00:11:03.27\00:11:08.12
unto the Lord for bringing
them out from the land of Egypt.
00:11:08.15\00:11:11.22
This is that night of the
Lord to be observed of all the
00:11:11.25\00:11:14.54
children of Israel
in their generations.
00:11:14.57\00:11:16.28
And the Lord said unto Moses
and Aaron, This is ordinance
00:11:16.31\00:11:20.13
of the passover: There
shall no stranger eat thereof:
00:11:20.16\00:11:24.15
But every man's servant
that is bought for money,
00:11:24.18\00:11:27.53
when thou hast circumcised
him, then shall he eat thereof.
00:11:27.56\00:11:31.70
A foreigner and an hired
servant shall not eat thereof.
00:11:31.73\00:11:35.40
In one house shall it be eaten;
thou shalt not carry forth aught
00:11:35.43\00:11:39.55
of the flesh abroad out of
the house; neither shall ye
00:11:39.58\00:11:42.80
break a bone thereof. All
the congregation of Israel
00:11:42.83\00:11:46.81
shall keep it. And when a
stranger shall sojourn with thee
00:11:46.84\00:11:50.88
and will keep the passover
to the Lord, let all his males
00:11:50.91\00:11:53.91
be circumcised, and then
let him come near and keep it;
00:11:53.94\00:11:57.37
and he shall be as one
that is born in the land:
00:11:57.40\00:11:59.85
for no uncircumcised
person shall eat thereof.
00:11:59.88\00:12:03.21
One law shall be to him that is
homeborn, and unto the stranger
00:12:03.24\00:12:08.17
that sojourneth among you.
Thus did all the children of
00:12:08.20\00:12:11.77
Israel; as the Lord commanded
Moses and Aaron, so did they.
00:12:11.80\00:12:15.43
And it came to pass the
selfsame day, that the Lord
00:12:15.46\00:12:19.61
did bring the children of
Israel out of the land of Egypt
00:12:19.64\00:12:23.43
by their armies.
We're continuing to read in
00:12:23.46\00:12:26.55
Exodus, the deliverance
of God. This is chapter 13,
00:12:26.58\00:12:30.27
and this is the
King James Version.
00:12:30.30\00:12:31.32
And the Lord spake unto Moses,
saying, Sanctify unto me all the
00:12:31.35\00:12:36.83
firstborn, whatsoever openeth
the womb among the children
00:12:36.86\00:12:39.75
of Israel, both of man
and of beast: it is mine.
00:12:39.78\00:12:42.68
And Moses said unto the people,
Remember this day, in which ye
00:12:42.71\00:12:46.20
came out from Egypt,
out of the house of bondage;
00:12:46.23\00:12:48.31
for by strength of hand the Lord
brought you out from this place:
00:12:48.34\00:12:52.01
there shall no leavened bread
be eaten. This day came ye out
00:12:52.04\00:12:56.39
in the month Abib. And it shall
be when the Lord shall bring
00:12:56.42\00:13:00.04
thee into the land of the
Canaanites, and the Hittites,
00:13:00.07\00:13:02.22
and the Amorites, and the
Hivites, and the Jebusites,
00:13:02.25\00:13:04.56
which he sware unto thy fathers
to give thee, a land flowing
00:13:04.59\00:13:08.61
with milk and honey, that thou
shalt keep this service in this
00:13:08.64\00:13:12.31
month. Seven days thou shalt
eat unleavened bread, and in the
00:13:12.34\00:13:16.52
seventh day shall be a feast
to the Lord. Unleavened bread
00:13:16.55\00:13:20.69
shall be eaten seven days and
there shall no leavened bread be
00:13:20.72\00:13:23.69
seen with thee, neither shall
there be leaven seen with thee
00:13:23.72\00:13:27.63
in all thy quarters. And thou
shalt shew thy son in that day,
00:13:27.66\00:13:31.79
saying, This is done because of
that which the Lord did unto me
00:13:31.82\00:13:35.03
when I came forth out of
Egypt. And it shall be for a
00:13:35.06\00:13:39.14
sign unto thee upon thine
hand, and for a memorial between
00:13:39.17\00:13:43.01
thine eyes, that the
Lord's law may be in thy mouth:
00:13:43.04\00:13:46.36
for with a strong hand hath
the Lord brought thee out of
00:13:46.39\00:13:50.21
Egypt. Thou shalt therefore
keep this ordinance in his
00:13:50.24\00:13:54.10
season from year to year. And
it shall be when the Lord shall
00:13:54.13\00:13:58.18
bring thee into the land of
the Canaanites, as he sware unto
00:13:58.21\00:14:00.92
thee and to they
fathers, and shall give it thee.
00:14:00.95\00:14:03.52
That thou shalt set apart unto
the Lord all that openeth the
00:14:03.55\00:14:07.32
matrix, and every
firstling that cometh of a beast
00:14:07.35\00:14:10.27
which thou hast; the
males shall be the Lord's.
00:14:10.30\00:14:13.26
And every firstling of an ass
thou shalt redeem with a lamb;
00:14:13.29\00:14:17.23
and if thou wilt not redeem it,
then thou shalt break his neck:
00:14:17.26\00:14:20.53
and all the firstborn of man
among thy children shalt thou
00:14:20.56\00:14:24.29
redeem. Thank you
for joining with me
00:14:24.32\00:14:27.24
to read the word of God
today, and until next time,
00:14:27.27\00:14:29.40
may God keep you
and bless you. Goodbye.
