Week 17
Series
Description
How do we make the journey from slavery to freedom? Our salvation requires a power outside ourselves, a force greater than the tyranny that rules us. The book of Exodus shows us a people enslaved by great evil, both political and spiritual. God displays his might and heart in rescuing Israel out of bondage, a mission foreshadowing his ultimate dedication to free all his people from slavery to sin. Join us in this study of Exodus as we see in the Israelites our own need for a Redeemer and are moved to worship Yahweh for his power to save.
Main
Passage
Exodus 20:22–23:33
**Due to the length of this week's main Exodus passage, chapters 21–23 are linked under Related Passages.
And the Lord said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: You saw for yourselves that I spoke to you from heaven. Remember, you must not make any idols of silver or gold to rival me.
“Build for me an altar made of earth, and offer your sacrifices to me—your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep and goats, and your cattle. Build my altar wherever I cause my name to be remembered, and I will come to you and bless you. If you use stones to build my altar, use only natural, uncut stones. Do not shape the stones with a tool, for that would make the altar unfit for holy use. And do not approach my altar by going up steps. If you do, someone might look up under your clothing and see your nakedness."
