Exodus 12:29-51: The Final Plague - “Take Your People and Go!”

The Rev. Dr. John Brunner, pastor emeritus and former District President of the Eastern District LCMS, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Exodus 12:29-51.

This section concludes the narrative which began in chapter 11. Namely, the 10th and final plague is completed, YHWH is fully victorious over the false gods of the Egyptians, and Pharaoh lets the Hebrews go. Israel’s 430 years of sojourning in Egypt have come to an end and Moses is vindicated. Unleavened bread appears again as a sign, this time of haste. Will there now be no more hardships for God’s people?

It’s the true story of God reaching down into history and, through an unlikely prophet, redeeming his chosen people from slavery. It’s the story of Exodus, but it’s also the story of us all. How through Christ, God has liberated us from sin, death, and the Devil. Don’t miss this chapter-by-chapter study of the Book of Exodus on Thy Strong Word.
