Exodus (Focus on the Bible)

God’s Kingdom of Priests 

Exodus is the story of the first redemption of God’s people for Himself.  Starting with a people enslaved and oppressed, seemingly forgotten by their God, it culminates with the Tabernacle.  God had chosen His people, setting them apart from the other nations: His kingdom of priests.  Exodus forms the sub–structure of the Old Testament – and points at every stage to the coming Messiah of the New Testament.
