(00:00) A brief overview of these chapters.
(02:16) The children of Israel murmur and complain in the wilderness. As a comparison, Nephi’s trust in God blesses his wilderness experience.
(08:42) The Book of Mormon gives added insight as to why murmuring is such a problem. The key to happiness is to remember the greatness of God in both pain and prosperity.
(19:07) A possible location of Sinai is discussed as evidence of historicity in the book of Exodus. Revelation came to Moses “when he was on the move.”
(23:26) The night crossing of the Red Sea can represent Jesus conquering chaos in our lives. Psalm 74 also addresses these themes.
(29:00) The children of Israel sing the Song of the Sea and rejoice in their deliverance.
(36:40) The beginning and end of the Exodus story has women standing as witnesses to the miraculous. Miriam is there at Moses’ birth and at the Song of the Sea.
(42:46) Some approaches to Biblical scholarship may be helpful in understanding why the Bible has some traditions that cast Miriam in a bad light.
(46:58) Miriam dies at Kadesh and the water dries up. Miriam as a symbol of the women in the New Testament named Mary who witnessed Jesus’ birth, death, and resurrection.
(51:07) The bitter water is sweetened with a tree. The Savior heals us too.
(54:59) The Lord rains manna from heaven and sends quail for meat to feed the children of Israel for 40 years. God will take care of us in the deserts of our lives.
(1:02:07) Moses smites a rock and water gushes forth. Jewish theologians over the years had a tradition that the rock at the beginning and at the end of Exodus was the same rock. Paul worked this tradition into his discussion of Christ, and so to him, the rock was Jesus.
(1:07:27) Amalek battles with the Israelites and Moses’ hands are held up so that Israel may be victorious. We sustain the prophet and our local leaders, and by so doing, we hold up their hands that hang down.
(1:10:22) An invitation to remember what God has done for us.
(1:13:23) Jethro counsels Moses to delegate certain tasks. Delegation gives opportunities for growth.
