In our previous episode, we learned that Moses’ exile was interrupted after forty years by a burning bush. God’s presence appeared to tell him he was needed back in Egypt. Despite Moses’ many protests, God did not give up on him. He empowered and reassured Moses that he, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, would go with him. Today we’ll hear about Moses’ return to Egypt and how God called his brother Aaron to meet Moses and lead the people alongside him. We’ll also hear how Moses’ wife, Zipporah, acts swiftly to demonstrate obedience and commitment to God. This is a story about God going before and going with those he calls.
