When you have been beaten once, twice shine!! It’s important to test your past knowledge before giving chance to the new picture.

MODULE 2: SESSION 9: Hard Heart
Pharaoh’s heart is described in two ways: heavy, implying that he was guilty of injustice, and hard, meaning “resolute.” God knew Pharaoh would resist, but he gave him many chances. Pharaoh’s evil reaches a point of no return, so God bends Pharaoh’s evil to his purposes and lures him into his own destruction.

Many are the devices of men but at the end of the day, only the counsel of God shall prevail. God had a will, and Pharaoh also had a will opposite to that of God but the agenda of God overcame that of man.

MODULE 2: SESSION 8: Signs and Wonders
The plagues function symbolically as de-creation. The plagues point beyond themselves to later events in Exodus. The plagues serve as a warning and reminder of the disastrous non-life state outside the people’s covenant relationship with Yahweh.

The first decreation happened in Genesis 7, and here God promised never to do it.

Great Knowledge!

Obviously both translations and paraphrase help in interpretation but paraphrased texts risk deviation from context.

MODULE 2: Exodus from Egypt
SESSION 7: Let Them Go!
The purpose of the release of the Israelites is for them to worship Yahweh. Yahweh. Pharaoh’s denial of this small request demonstrates how hard-hearted he is. The purpose of the confrontation is that the nations will know God the more. In Egypt Pharaoh is seen as the mighty with…

Lesson 2 The books of the Bible
The Key verse set the stage for this lesson. God has given us his word for us to better understand who He is. Every book of the Bible uplifts the lovely Jesus and the plan of redemption for sinful man. The bible shows the effects and sinful nature of man and how God through His word seeks to reconcile man.

Exactly what Paul shares with Timothy in 2 Timothy 3:15 that, scripture (writings) makes one wise unto salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

Lesson # 1 Introduction to the Bible
Even though the Bible was written by over 40 different writers over many years, there are no contradictions. The Bible writes perfectly harmonizes with each other because they were all inspired by God Almighty. It is interesting to know that the purpose, for which the Bible was given, is to demonstrate…

Great! This is a clear proof that the author of of the Bible is not man. If it was man, there will be a lot of contradictions.
-
And more over, apart from a few writers especially in the New Testament, majority of the writers never met each other. Daniel didn’t meet Moses, Nehemiah never met David. Isaiah never knew Elijah, and so was it with the other prophets, yet the harmonization of their prophecy about one man Jesus, is evident that, the content of their texts is…

MODULE 3: Jacob’s Exile
SESSION 12: Jacob at the Gate of Heaven
Yaaqov’s response subtly twists God’s promise of blessing and presence into a bargaining arrangement. Yaaqov seeing the gate of Heaven in a dream points to an awareness of heavenly realities not accessible to our conscious senses. Jesus envisions himself as the ramp that…

MODULE 2 : SESSION 11: Parting of the Brothers
The separation of Yaaqov and Esau resounds with notes of the Cain and Abel theme, but with many inversions and surprises. Rivqah indeed receives the curse for her scheming with Yaaqov when she says goodbye to her beloved son, never to see him again. Esau, in his anger, is set on analogy to…

A terrible thing to have happened to the chosen family but work out for God’s plan!!

Surely, God’s plan is amazing though hidden before our eyes
