Jesus in the Exodus

Jesus in the Book of Exodus
by Owen Borville
April 29, 2021
Bible

In the Book of Exodus, many references to Jesus Christ are found in the account of the call of Moses to deliver the Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land of Canaan. Just as Moses was sent to deliver the Israelites from bondage to freedom and the Promised Land, Jesus Christ was sent to deliver the Israelites and all man from the bondage of sin and to the spiritual Promised Land.

In Exodus 3, the Burning Bush was God's Presence, and the voice was the Word of God.

In Exodus 12:5: The Passover Lamb: Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats:

In Exodus 12:13:The Passover: And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

Exodus 12:27 The Passover: That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the Lord's Passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped.

The Passover represented the future salvation of the righteous, who will be passed over for punishment.

A Passover Feast restriction symbolized the future Messiah's unbroken bones:

In Exodus 12:46: In one house shall it be eaten; thou shalt not carry forth ought of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall ye break a bone thereof.

In Exodus 13, the crossing of the Red Sea represented God's deliverance of the Israelites, just as was promised in the future salvation. In Exodus 15, The song of Moses and Miriam represented praise to the Lord.

In Exodus 13:2-3, the firstborn sons were sanctified, and unleavened bread shall be eaten. Jesus is the unleavened bread at the Last Supper (Mark 14:22).

In Exodus 13:21-22, the Pillar of Cloud leading the Israelites on their journey across the Red Sea represented the Lord.

In Exodus 15:2, The Song of Moses and Miriam praised God for the deliverance after miraculously crossing the sea. The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

Exodus 15:11 The Lord was Praised: 11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? 12 Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.

In Exodus 16, Manna and Quail were given by God to the Israelites, symbolizing the Bread of Life and Meat that the Savior would bring. (John 4:34)

In Exodus 17, God gave the water to the Israelites from the Rock at Horeb, symbolizing the Rock of Salvation, The Lord.

In Exodus 19-20, at Mount Sinai God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses on stone tablets, mirroring Jesus' Sermon on the Mount speech. The Law came by Moses, but Grace and Truth came by Jesus Christ and the Law was fulfilled.

In Exodus 23:20 God's Angel is Promised: Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.

In Exodus 24, The covenant was confirmed with the Lord and the Israelites, as the Glory of the Lord came in a cloud covering Mount Sinai and Moses entered the cloud. In Exodus 25, instructions for the Tabernacle, Ark of the Covenant and Priesthood were given.
​
In Exodus 33-34, The Glory of the Lord was revealed to Moses, at Moses' request to ensure that the Lord would always be with them. When Moses came down from the mountain, he had a "radiant face" and had to cover it. This revelation mirrors the Transfiguration of Jesus (Matthew 17, Mark 9, Luke 9:28, 2 Peter 1:16), where Moses and Elijah were present.
