Significance of the Exodus

The single most important event in the New Testament is the resurrection from the dead of Jesus Christ. The New Testament doesn’t make sense apart from God liberating us from the bondage of sin and death through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The single most important event in the Old Testament is the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt. The Old Testament doesn’t make sense apart from God liberating the Israelites from the bondage of slavery in Egypt through the exodus led by Moses.

Both the resurrection and the exodus tell us an awful lot about God. They tell us that God loves us deeply, hears our cries, and acts decisively to deliver us from bondage to freedom.

Peace.
