1 So the Lord said to Moses: “See, I have made you aas God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be byour prophet.
2 You ashall speak all that I command you. And Aaron your brother shall tell Pharaoh to send the children of Israel out of his land.
3 And aI will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and bmultiply My csigns and My wonders in the land of Egypt.
4 But aPharaoh will not heed you, so bthat I may lay My hand on Egypt and bring My1 armies and My people, the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt cby great judgments.

Exodus
Exodus
EXODUS, a "going forth," derives its name from its being occupied principally with a relation of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, and the incidents that immediately preceded as well as followed that memorable migration. Its authorship by Moses is distinctly asserted by himself (Exodus 24:4), as well as by our Lord (Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Besides, the thorough knowledge it exhibits of the institutions and usages of the ancient Egyptians and the minute geographical details of the journey to Sinai, establish in the clearest manner the authenticity of this book.
