One Minute Bible Commentary: Recent Episodes

Jeff Cantrell

The Bible can be taught thoroughly and quickly. It does not require sitting and listening to an hour-long sermon. This podcast will teach you about the Bible from Genesis to Revelation in a concise and easy to understand way.

We are going to see a major development here in Exodus chapter 2 where God is drawing good out of the evil of Egypt. We also see that pharaoh is completely incompetent unaware of what’s going on in his own house.

We are going to see a theme developing in exodus chapter 2 where the nations will be blessed through the people of Abraham. Moses knows how to lead the people of Egypt because he was raised in the house of the pharaoh. Moses also becomes the leader of the Israelites. Moses is a leader who is both Egyptian and Israelite; this is showing gods inclusion of the non-Hebrew people in his plan to restore the earth.

In exodus chapter 2 the words that are used to describe the basket that Moses was placed in are very similar to the words that describe the arc that Noah was in. Once again this is showing us a theme that will come to fruition throughout this book where God is creating order out of chaos. This is a very chaotic time in Egypt but God is in control and he is bringing order out of this craziness.

Pharaoh the most powerful king on earth is scared to the point that he is killing little children because he thinks slaves will rise up and take his kingdom. If you were reading this through the lens or the thought process of an ancient person this would be quite humorous. It would be humorous, not because babies are dying, that’s not funny; it would be humorous because no true God and King would be scared of a little baby or slaves. So here again The author of Exodus is trashing the Egyptian kingdom and the Egyptian pharaoh and the idea that pharaoh is a god. Clearly, one of the major points of the book of exodus is it is dumb to think that there is any ruler on earth who is more powerful than Yahweh. And it is silly to think that a kingdom is more powerful than a nation backed by Yahweh Elohim.

Exodus chapter 2 is connecting to the story of Noah in many ways. This may be that the authors are trying to show the reader that just as a new world order was remade from one family group after the flood. A new world order is emerging from the chaos of the Israelites slavery. This begs the question what is that new world order? The new order the world will take on, is one, where God is the king of the earth. He is showing the world this through the descendants of Abraham and through the people of Israel.

In Genesis chapter 2 we see that the chaos unfolding in Egypt is very similar to the chaos that happened in Noah’s day. To paraphrase what the Bible says about Noah’s day in Genesis; every man did what was evil all the time. However, Noah walked with God and found grace in the eyes of the Lord. This is very similar to the fine appearance of Moses. We see a connection to the people who walked closest with God in Genesis. This is foreshadowing the kind of ruler and man Moses will be. It also foreshadows the order of the Israelite nation being brought out of the chaos of the Egyptian nation by the leadership of Moses; who is following God‘s commands.

Exodus chapter 1 closes by connecting the story of Genesis and the story of Exodus. In Genesis chapter 3 we see that a serpent is the pivotal player in drawing humans away from God. In Exodus we see that pharaoh is a pivotal player in drawing the Israelites away from their promised land. This connection foreshadows the Pharaoh as an enemy of God and the Israelite people.

In this episode you will learn how themes from Genesis are continuing into the book of exodus. The key focus of today’s episode is the idea that God is blessing the people who are blessing Abrahams descendants. The women who are helping the Israelites give birth and hide their babies are being blessed. This is an example of Abrahams promise from God in Genesis. It also lays the groundwork for inclusion of the gentiles taught in Paul’s letters.

The Egyptian people believed that the pharaoh was a God. Genesis chapter 1 directly attacks that idea by showing the incompetence of the pharaoh. The pharaoh cannot even fulfill his commands because of the lowly slave women. This shows us that the pharaoh is no god; he’s not even a competent ruler!

The Israelites were forced to build a corrupt state for the king of Egypt. There are many callbacks to the book of Genesis. These callbacks are showing that the children of God are being forced to make the world what it was during the time of Babel.

In Exodus chapter 1 we see the Jewish people characterizing the pharaoh as either very brutal or very incompetent. It is most likely that they believed he was both this polemic is designed to show the pharaoh as someone who is extremely brutal without reason towards the people of God and someone who does not have as much power as the people of God.

In this episode we talk about the polemic that pharaoh is weaker than the Jewish people. Even though the pharaoh is king he is afraid of his servants this is A humorous argument to make the point that pharaoh is not a good king and has no power or authority.

Hey everyone, this season will be a little different. According to the statistics you love one Minute Bible commentary but hate long introductions (as do I). This season I’ll be adding information to the episode description instead of having an introduction. It will look like this but be information about the podcast episode or some further details. In this episode you hear my sick voice. Don’t worry I will recover. That being said I have scripts for chapters one to ten but have not begun recording. I will do all I can to have everything ready to go as soon and possible. Until then God bless you and may the peace of The LORD be with you!
