Welcome to another message. We're studying the book of Exodus. Bible readings by Dr. Jim. And this is lesson number 151. It's hard to believe that just this last fall I started this. And we've read at least half of the Bible, if not more. Now let's go here in 6 and verse 11. That's where we're going to start. Moses is going to go before Pharaoh again. The book of Jasher said it was a year or two years between the first time he went before Pharaoh and asked him to let his children go. But we don't know exactly how long it was. It could have been a month or two or three, four months or whatever. But let's start off here now. And I'll be reading from the Hebrew. Bible and sometimes I'll read the Hebrew just so you can hear what it sounds like and a lot of times I'll just translate it and tell you a little bit about the the tenses and modes in Hebrew because Hebrew is a dynamic language. It is a language with a lot of force. That's what it sounds like in Hebrew. Go. That's imperative there. That's a command. Go and speak. Speak, and that word forcibly, unto Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, that he may send away, shoot away for himself. Now, this is in the PL statement of Joseph. And the Joseph mode is voluntary. He will do this. He's going to do this. He's going to send away Israel by force. He's going to run them off. He's going to want to get rid of them when everything goes sour for so long. The sons of Israel from the land of Mitzrayim, Redmud, and Kenelbanks. 6 and 12, and he spoke again in the PL stem, Moses, before the face of Jehovah, saying, Behold, the sons of Israel, not, they have listened unto me, and how, or why, and how shall they listen to me now? Keep on listening to me now. Pharaoh, and I, uncircumcised of lips. Uncircumcised of lips. In other words, sinful lips. A man of sinful, a sinful man. When we come to God in prayer, we sometimes remember our sins in our life. And we beg God's forgiveness. And Peter says, Lord, I am a sinful man. Moses said, Lord, I am a sinful man with sinful lips. When we come to God, we need to recognize His holiness and our unrighteousness, our unholiness. But Jesus Christ, by His blood, makes us holy inside of God. Verse number 13, And he spoke Jehovah unto Moses. and unto Aaron. Now he's speaking to both of them now. And he commanded them about or unto the sons of Israel and about Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, to bring out the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt. Now here we're going to go real soon into a contest of the gods. the God of heaven against all the gods of Egypt. Jehovah was outnumbered, but he wasn't outclassed, I can assure you that, because those gods of Egypt were not gods at all. And then we go into verse number 14, and we start naming the heads of the families of Israel. Elie, Rache, Beth, Avotam, Bene. It says, and these are the heads, Rosh there, 911, 912, the heads of the houses of their fathers, the sons of Reuben, remember Reuben means see a son, the firstborn of Israel, and Enoch, Enoch, and Palu, Hezron, and Carmi, and these are the families of Reuben.

Bring them out, the sons of Israel from the land of Egypt, according to their armies, according to their hosts, according to their families. That word, Tezivotam, word armies there it means host it also we get the word Savioth from it. Jehovah Savioth comes from that word there. And these the one speaking unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt to bring out the sons of Israel from Egypt that Moses and Aaron And it became in the day that he had spoken Jehovah unto Moses in the land of Egypt. Verse 29. And he spoke and kept on speaking Jehovah unto Moses saying, and this is where he kept on speaking, that's imperfect, and then we're saying there, it's infinitive, it means to say, I Jehovah speak unto Pharaoh. King of Mithraim, of Egypt, and all which I am about to speak unto you. You tell them what I'm about to say unto you. וַיֹּוֹמָר מֹשֶׁה לְפְנֵי הָדָּוֹר הֶנָּה אָנִי אֲרָאֹל שֶׁפָּתֶּיִם וִיֵּק יִשְׁמָח אִלֵי פָּרוֹ That again is what it says in the Hebrew language. And he said and kept on saying Moses before the face of Jehovah. Behold, I am uncircumcised. It means literally uncircumcised means pointed. Uncircumcised lips and how can they keep on listening unto me Pharaoh? How are they going to keep on listening to me Pharaoh? And he said Jehovah unto Moses.

Going to pay them to leave. 7 and verse 3. We are nee agsheh et lev phadro. v'hererte et otelei v'et mofetei be'eretz mitraim.

And they shall know, the Egyptians, that I am Jehovah, when I shall have stretched out my hand upon the Egyptians, and bring out the sons of Israel from in the middle of them, One more verse now in this message. And he did and performed Moses an errand just as he had commanded Jehovah unto them in this way. And they did, they performed They worked miracles. Miracles. You know what? Every time God saves a person, it's a miracle, isn't it? Every time God saves a person, especially in the world that we live in today. Look at America today as a godless nation. A godless nation. By majority now, Many people in America, and they want to fight against God. They want to make right wrong and wrong right. And yet God is back there. God will bring in finality, finesse. God will bring forth His judgments upon this nation also. The only bad thing about that is there's a lot of believing people, many believing people in this country that are suffering in the meanwhile. As Israel suffered in the land of Egypt, so we suffered in this world. This world is not our home. We try to make it our home sometimes. We really might try to make ourselves comfortable. We have to try to find a good car that we can drive that's comfortable to drive. We try to live in a good home and everything. But this is not our home. We are pilgrims. We are just pilgrims, sojourners in this world today. For a while, for a time, the Lord said so many times, build up your treasures in heaven where neither a raw moth nor rust can destroy. Our Father, we send forth this message for your honor and for your glory. Please use it for in the world wherever you can, wherever it goes, to glorify yourself and your word. And father, please forgive me where I fail you. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
