  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 10:21-29

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 10:21-29

    God causes darkness to fall over the land of Egypt for three days. Unlike in the movie, Prince of Egypt, darkness also falls over Goshen—but the Hebrews have sources of light within their dwelling places—which is an important note for apologetics. Many philosophical attacks on the faith can be rebutted  simply by reading what the…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 10:1-20

    When Moses goes before Pharaoh this time, we almost have a glimpse of hope as Pharaoh offers to let the people. Once Moses tells Pharaoh that all the people of Israel must go, Pharaoh calls his thoughts evil and directs Moses only to take the men into the wilderness to praise Yahweh. God causes locusts…

  • The Abomination of Desolation

    The Abomination of Desolation

    Jesus’s disciples have asked when the end of the Temple will come, when will not one stone be left upon another? When will Christ judge Jerusalem? Jesus has already made it clear that the judgment upon Jerusalem will happen within their lifetimes (Matthew 23:36). He will repeat His timeframe in Matthew 24:34. He is revealing…

  • Daily Devotional Exodus 9:18-35

    Daily Devotional Exodus 9:18-35

    The gods of Egypt also had no control over the skies of Egypt. The Egyptian gods, Nut and Seth, are put to shame as Yahweh brings forth hail, thunder, and lightning in the most severe storm ever to have hit Egypt since it has been a nation. Like we have seen with the other plagues,…

  • God is Unsearchable, but Reveals Himself

    God is Unsearchable, but Reveals Himself

    Directly prior to the great flood, God withdrew His spirit such that the Spirit did not strive with humanity (Genesis 6:3). He left humanity to its own devices to rule the earth, and the earth was plunged into wickedness and violence. God baptized the earth because it had become corrupt. People will only bring injustice…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 9:1-17

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 9:1-17

    Like the plague of flies, the plagues of cattle death and boils only bother the Egyptians, not the Hebrews. God is clear about His objective—to show the Egyptians His power and to proclaim His own name through all the earth. God’s actions are not merely performed to free people from slavery—which we are often guilty…

  • The Signs of the End… End of What?

    The Signs of the End… End of What?

    Your Bible heading may say, “Signs of Christ’s Return,” or something similar. Please keep in mind that the headings over the sections of text in Scripture are not inspired in a verbal-plenary way by God—except, perhaps, in the Psalms. Jesus has left the Temple after weeping over Jerusalem and calling the city desolate. His disciples…

  • Welcome to Babel–Grace in Wrath

    Welcome to Babel–Grace in Wrath

    Following God’s twofold promise, (1) to never destroy or curse the earth and (2) to never again flood the earth, Canaan is cursed and Shem and Japheth are blessed. In Chapter 10, Noah’s children have children who have children. In the third generation, nations have formed according to different languages and families. A man named…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 8:1-15

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 8:1-15

    For Egyptians, the frog symbolizes birth, generation, water, renewal, and fertility. The Egyptians wear frog amulets and even have a frog-headed goddess named Heqet. With his staff, Aaron obeyes the Lord and summons frogs over the land of Egypt. He does so that Egypt will know that there is no one, especially no god, like…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 7:14-25

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 7:14-25

    Blood represents life and death, and so does the Nile for all of Egypt. At some point in their history, Egyptians associated the Nile with their gods—Hapi, Sobek, and Osiris—and relied on them to bring fertility to the soil for farming through the natural cycle of the Nile River. Without the Nile, Egyptians would die.…
