Exodus 6 · Grade 3
The Lord Keeps His Word
Read the Story
Yahweh said to Moses, Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh, for by a strong hand he shall let them go. God said, I am Yahweh. He reminded Moses that he had appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Almighty and made a covenant to give them Canaan. He said, I have remembered my covenant.
God gave Moses a message for Israel: he would bring them out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, free them, and redeem them. He said, I will take you to myself for a people. I will be your God. He would bring them into the land he promised.
Moses told this to Israel, but they didn't listen because of their anguish of spirit and cruel bondage. Moses asked how Pharaoh would listen to him when Israel had not listened. The chapter then lists the heads of families of Reuben, Simeon and Levi, including Amram and Jochebed, the parents of Aaron and Moses.
