The sons of Israel came into Egypt with Jacob.

All of the descendants of Jacob were 70 in number.

A new king arose over Egypt, who did not care for the memory of Joseph.

The king of the Egyptians was afraid that the Israelites would continue to multiply, and if war would break out, they would join the Egyptians’ enemies, fight against them, and leave the land.

The taskmasters oppressed the Israelites with hard labor.

The more the Egyptians oppressed the Israelites, the more the Israelites increased in number and spread.

The king of Egypt told them that if the baby was male, then they must kill him.

The midwives feared God and so they did not do as the king of Egypt ordered them.

They said Hebrew women were vigorous and finished giving birth before a midwife came to them.

Pharaoh ordered all his people to throw every male Hebrew that is born into the river.

The woman of Levi hid her son for three months.

She sealed the papyrus basket with bitumen and pitch.

The baby’s sister stood at a distance to see what would happen to him.

Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river while her attendants walked along by the riverside.

The young girl went and got the child’s mother to nurse the child for Pharaoh’s daughter.

Pharaoh’s daughter named the child Moses.

Moses killed the Egyptian and hid his body in the sand.

When two Hebrew men were fighting, Moses said to the one who was in the wrong, “Why are you hitting your companion?”

Pharaoh tried to kill Moses, but Moses fled from Pharaoh and stayed in the land of Midian.

Some shepherds came and tried to drive away the daughters of the priest of Midian.

When God heard the Israelites groaning, God called to mind his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

Jethro, the priest of Midian, was Moses’ father-in-law.

The angel of Yahweh appeared to Moses in a flame of fire in a bush.

God called to Moses out of the bush.

God said, “Do not come any closer! Take off your shoes from your feet, for the place where you are standing is ground consecrated for my own purpose.”

Yahweh came down to free the Israelites from the Egyptians’ power and to bring them up from that land to a good, large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey.

Yahweh sent Moses to Pharaoh so that Moses would bring Yahweh’s people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.

The sign to Moses that Yahweh was sending him would be that when Moses had brought the people out of Egypt, he would worship Yahweh on this mountain.

When the Israelites would ask Moses what God’s name is, he should say, “I AM THAT I AM.”

The Israelites will go three days’ journey into the wilderness in order that they might sacrifice to Yahweh, their God.

The king of Egypt would not let the Israelites go unless his hand would be forced.

A staff was in Moses’ hand.

Moses’ staff became a snake when he threw it on the ground.

Moses should take the snake by the tail.

When Moses first brought his hand out from inside his robe, it was leprous.

Yahweh will be Moses’ mouth and teach him what to say.

When Aaron sees Moses, he will be glad in his heart.

Moses will be like God to Aaron.

Moses can return to Egypt, for all the men who were trying to take his life are dead.

Yahweh will harden Pharaoh’s heart so that Pharaoh will not let the people go.

Since Pharaoh has refused to let Yahweh’s firstborn son go, Yahweh will certainly kill Pharaoh’s firstborn son.

When they stopped for the night, Yahweh met Moses and tried to kill him.

Aaron met Moses at the mountain of God.

Aaron displayed the signs of Yahweh’s power in the sight of the people.

They should let Yahweh’s people go so they can have a festival for him in the wilderness.

The Israelites should go on a three-day journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to Yahweh their God so that he does not attack them with plague or with the sword.

Pharaoh gave a command to the people’s taskmasters and foremen to no longer give the Israelites straw to make bricks.

Although the Israelites must go and get straw wherever they can find it, their workload will not be reduced.

Pharaoh’s taskmasters beat the Israelite foremen, those same men whom they had put in charge of the workers.

It was the fault of Pharaoh’s own people that the Israelite foremen were beaten.

Moses and Aaron were standing outside the palace as they went away from Pharaoh.

Moses said the Lord caused trouble for the people of Israel.

Pharoah will let the people of Israel go because of Yahweh’s strong hand.

Yahweh appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty.

Yahweh has heard the groaning of the Israelites whom the Egyptians have enslaved, and he has called to mind his covenant.

Yahweh will give the land that he swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob to the Israelites as a possession.

Moses thinks Pharaoh will not listen to him because he is not good at speaking.

Kohath lived until he was 133 years old.

Amram married Jochebed, his father’s sister.

Elisheba bore Nadab and Abihu.

Aaron and Moses should bring out the Israelites from the land of Egypt by their groups of fighting men.

Yahweh has made Moses like a god to Pharaoh.

Yahweh will harden Pharaoh’s heart.

The Egyptians will know who Yahweh is when he reaches out with his hand on Egypt and brings out the Israelites from among them.

Moses’ staff will become a snake.

The staffs of Pharaoh’s wise men and sorcerers became snakes by their magic.

Moses should stand on the riverbank to meet Pharaoh.

The river will be turned to blood.

The Egyptians’ rivers, streams, pools and all their ponds and even the water in containers of wood and stone will be turned to blood.

Pharaoh’s heart was hardened.

The Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink.

If Pharaoh refused to let Yahweh’s people go, Yahweh would afflict all Pharaoh’s country with frogs.

The frogs will come up and go into Egyptians’ houses, bedrooms, and beds. They will go into their servants’ houses. They will go onto the people, into their ovens, and into their kneading bowls.

Aaron reached out with his hand over Egypt’s waters.

Moses gave Pharaoh the privilege of telling him when he should pray for Pharaoh, his servants, and his people so that the frogs may be removed from them and their houses and stay only in the river.

When Pharaoh saw that there was relief from the frogs, he hardened his heart and did not listen to Moses and Aaron.

All the dust on the ground became gnats throughout the whole land of Egypt.

The magicians were not able to produce lice.

The Egyptians’ houses will be full of swarms of flies, and even the ground on which they stand will be full of flies.

Yahweh would treat the land of Goshen differently, so that no swarms of flies would be there. This would happen so that Pharaoh would know that Yahweh is in the midst of this land.

The sacrifices the Israelites make to Yahweh their God are something disgusting to the Egyptians.

Pharaoh hardened his heart this time also.

Yahweh’s hand will be on the Egyptians’ cattle in the fields and on the horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks.

Pharaoh’s heart was stubborn, so he did not let the people go.

Ashes from a furnace will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt.

The magicians could not resist Moses because of the blisters.

Yahweh did not attack Pharaoh and his people in order to show them His power, so that His name may be spread throughout all the earth.

Yahweh said that every man and animal that is in the field and is not brought home—the hail will come down on them, and they will die.

Those of Pharaoh’s servants who believed in Yahweh’s message hurried to bring their slaves and cattle into the houses.

Throughout all the land of Egypt, the hail struck everything in the fields, both people and animals. It struck every plant in the fields and broke every tree.

He said he has sinned this time. He said that Yahweh is righteous, and that he and his people are wicked.

The wheat and the spelt were not harmed, because they were later crops.

Yahweh hardened the hearts of Pharaoh and his servants to show these signs of his power among them. He also did this so that the Israelites might tell their children and grandchildren the things he has done.

Locusts will cover the surface of the ground so that no one will be able to see the earth.

Pharaoh said, “No! Go, just the men among you.”

The east wind brought the locusts.

Pharaoh said he has sinned against Yahweh, Moses’ God.

Not a single locust remained in all the territory of Egypt after Yahweh brought a very strong west wind.

During the three days of darkness, no one could see anyone else; no one left his home for three days.

Pharaoh said the flocks and herds must remain behind when the Israelites go to worship Yahweh.

Pharaoh said that on the day Moses would see his face, Moses would die.

Every Israelite man and woman should ask of his or her neighbor for jewels of silver and jewels of gold after the final plague.

Moses was very impressive in the sight of Pharaoh’s servants and the people of Egypt.

All the firstborn in the land of Egypt would die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh, who sits on his throne, to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the mill, and to all the firstborn of the animals.

There has never been such a great cry, nor ever will there be again.

On the tenth day of this month each family must take a lamb or young goat for themselves.

If the household is too small for a lamb, the man and his next door neighbor are to share a lamb or young goat so that the meat will be enough for the number of the people.

The whole assembly of Israel must kill these animals at twilight on the fourteenth day of this month.

They must eat it with bread made without yeast, along with bitter herbs.

They must not let any of it be left over until morning. They must burn whatever is left over in the morning.

When Yahweh sees the blood, he will pass over them, and the plague will not be on them.

Whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person must be cut off from Israel.

No work will be done on these days except the cooking for everyone to eat.

The Israelites must eat unleavened bread from twilight of the fourteenth day in the first month of the year until twilight of the twenty-first day of the month.

The Israelites should apply the blood in the basin to the top of the door frame and the two doorposts.

Yahweh will pass over someone’s door when he sees the blood on the top of the doorframe and on the two doorposts.

The Israelites were tell their children that their service was a sacrifice of Yahweh’s Passover, because Yahweh passed over the Israelites’ houses in Egypt when he attacked the Egyptians and rescued their households.

There was a great outcry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not someone dead.

The Israelites asked the Egyptians for jewels of silver, jewels of gold, and clothing.

The bread was without yeast because the Israelites had been driven out of Egypt and could not delay to prepare food.

They had been in Egypt 430 years.

No foreigner may share in eating the Passover.

If a foreigner lives with the Israelites and wants to observe the Passover for Yahweh, all his male relatives must be circumcised.

The firstborn were to be set apart to Yahweh.

The Israelites went out of Egypt in the month of Aviv.

This rescue will become reminders for the Israelites on their hands and reminders on their forehead so that Yahweh’s law may be in their speech.

Every firstborn donkey the Israelites must buy back with a lamb.

God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, for God said, “Perhaps the people will change their minds when they experience war and will then return to Egypt.”

Joseph had made the Israelites solemnly swear, “You must carry away my bones with you.”

By night he went in a pillar of fire to give them light. In this way they could travel by day and by night.

When the king of Egypt was told that the Israelites had fled, the minds of Pharaoh and his servants turned against the Israelites.

The Egyptians overtook the Israelites camping by the sea above Pi Hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.

They said it would have been better for them to work for the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.

Yahweh will fight for the Israelites, and they will only have to be quiet.

Yahweh will harden the Egyptians’ hearts so they will go after the Israelites.

The cloud was a dark cloud to the Egyptians, but it lit the night for the Israelites, so one side did not come near the other all night.

Yahweh drove the sea back by a strong east wind all that night.

In the early morning hours, Yahweh looked down on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and cloud.

Not one of Pharaoh’s soldiers survived crossing the sea.

When Israel saw the great power that Yahweh used against the Egyptians, the people honored Yahweh, and they trusted in Yahweh and in his servant Moses.

Yahweh has thrown the horse and its rider into the sea.

They went down into the depths like a stone.

By the breath of Yahweh’s nostrils the waters were piled up.

In his covenant faithfulness, Yahweh has led the people he has rescued. In his strength he has led them to the holy place where he lives.

The peoples will hear, and they will tremble.

Yahweh will bring the Israelites and plant them on the mountain of his inheritance, the place Yahweh has made to live in.

Miriam the prophetess and all the women played tambourines.

The Israelites could not drink the water at Marah because it was bitter.

Yahweh showed Moses a tree. Moses threw it into the water, and the water became sweet to drink.

The Wilderness of Sin is between Elim and Sinai.

They said Moses brought them out into this wilderness to kill their whole community with hunger.

The people will go out and gather a day’s portion every day so that Yahweh may test them to see whether or not they will walk in his law.

The Israelites will know Yahweh has brought them out from the land of Egypt when Yahweh gives them meat in the evening and bread in the morning to the full.

Yahweh’s glory appeared in the cloud.

The bread that Yahweh has given the Israelites to eat was small flakes as thin as frost.

When they measured it with an omer measure, those who had gathered much had nothing over, and those who had gathered little had no lack. Each person gathered enough to meet their need.

The bread from Yahweh that some of the Israelites left until morning bred worms and became foul.

On the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each person.

The bread of Yahweh that was set aside until the seventh day did not become foul, nor was there any worm in it.

When some of the people went out to gather manna on the seventh day, they found none.

Each of them must stay in his own place; no one must go out from his place on the seventh day.

Manna was food that was white like coriander seed, and its taste was like wafers with honey.

An omer of manna will be kept throughout the people’s generations so that their descendants might see the bread with which Yahweh fed them in the wilderness.

An omer of manna will be kept in a pot and stored beside the covenant decrees inside the ark.

The people of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to inhabited land.

There was no water for the people to drink, so the people blamed Moses for their situation and murmured against him.

Moses was afraid that the Israelites were ready to stone him.

Yahweh told Moses to strike the rock with his staff. Water would come out of the rock for the people to drink.

Moses stood on top of the hill with the staff of God in his hand.

While Moses was holding his hands up, Israel was winning. When he let his hands rest, Amalek would begin to win.

Aaron and Hur took a stone and put it under him for him to sit on. At the same time, Aaron and Hur held his hands up, one person on one side of him and the other person on the other side.

Yahweh told Moses to write about the battle in a book, because Yahweh will completely blot out the memory of Amalek from under the skies.
