Africa Activity 4 months agoEXODUS OVERVIEW
MODULE 1: SESSION 3: Delivering the Deliverer
Moses’ deliverance in the reeds anticipates Israel’s deliverance through the Sea of Reeds. Moses’ deliverance through the waters of the Nile echoes Noah’s deliverance through the waters of the flood. Seeing things the way God sees them, as the key women in this narrative do, is a first…

Mr. David, truly, this story truly reflects the past events!

MODULE 1: SESSION 2: Proliferation and Oppression
Exodus 1 is littered with vocabulary recalling themes from Genesis. Pharaoh, who considers himself a god, inverts the human vocation of being an image bearer who rules with justice and wisdom. From the first chapter, Exodus highlights the role of women in resisting injustice.

Exciting to see women playing that part!

MODULE 1: Moses Delivered and Commissioned
SESSION 1: Exodus and the Exodus
The exodus event establishes and helps define the identity of the community. Pay attention to who is named and who is not. The biblical authors illustrate the priorities of the text with details like these. Moses’ deliverance and commissioning sets the…

MODULE 2: Isaac’s Story and Jacob’s Deception
SESSION 6: Isaac Deceives Abimelech
God renews his promise to Yitskhaq, echoing the covenants made to previous generations. The unusual phrase “on the heel of” means “because.” It recalls the heel of the snake crusher in Genesis 3:15, while keeping Yaaqov the heel grabber on our minds as the story…

MODULE 1: SESSION 5: Jacob Tricks Esau
The Hebrew word tam means whole or complete and is used to describe people of moral integrity. Describing Yaaqov as a “smooth man” has a double meaning: This contrasts his appearance with that of his brother, but it also links his deceitful actions with a developing theme of tricksters and deceivers…

We continue to see Satan handiwork repeatedly, all because of self-gain!

MODULE 1: SESSION 4: The Birth of Esau and Jacob
The Yaaqov story offers a raw look at human nature, with deception central to each of its three movements. Yaaqov’s story is a tragedy marked by his repeated scheming attempts to secure blessing for himself instead of trusting God and extending blessing to those around him. God’s words mark…

Great! You are very right! Judging from Jacob’s behavior, no one would have ever thought that he would be the one God would choose.

Africa Activity 4 months agoJOSEPH
MODULE 2: SESSION 6: Man in the Field
The narrative hinges on Yoseph’s encounter with the man in the field. If Yoseph had not met this man, he and his entire family would have died in the famine. For the biblical authors, every moment of human existence is woven into God’s plan for creation. The Midianites and Ishmaelites become entagled…

God always goes ahead of us in planning for our good!

Africa Activity 4 months agoJOSEPH
MODULE 2: Joseph’s Dream and Hostile Brothers
SESSION 5: Joseph’s Dream
Yaaqov’s favoritism of Rachel over Leah resurfaces in his preference for Yoseph. In both scenarios, this favoritism leads to strife and division. The meaning of the Hebrew word passim, often translated as “many colors,” is unclear. The biblical authors link…

You are very correct, Mr. David! The separation of Joseph and his brother is a clear hyperlink to the story of Cain and Abel!
