In our sixth episode in the book of Exodus, we chat about Ex. 14:1-15:21 as Yahweh triumphs over the Egyptians and then Israel sings in response to God delivering His people.
 
Today’s conversation:
Geography at the beginning of ch. 14
The exodus as a founding story for Israel
Yahweh reiterating His purpose in the exodus event
Israel’s complaining, looking forward and backward in the story
God as Deliverer & the hope/confidence available to us
The angel of the Lord & the fire: markers on the narrative
Death by water: a reversal
Singing as a regular practice for God’s people
The attributes of God in the song
Yahweh as God of the generations
God’s anger against evil is inherent to His majesty (Douglas Stuart)
The “gods” — what should we think of that? For more on a view that Michael briefly explains, see this short video from the BibleProject or Michael Heiser’s book The Unseen Realm
The importance of the nations referenced in the song
Miriam & the song
