The stories in Exodus are absolutely foundational to the entirety of Scripture. That is true of the mighty acts of the Lord’s rescue of Israel from Egypt, but is even more true of the central act of the book - the establishment of the relationship between the Lord and Israel. However, our appreciation of this event is often sidetracked by our misunderstanding of the Law and our expectations of the Lord’s promised blessings. As a result our appreciation of our relationship with the Lord in Christ isn’t as deep as it could be.
