Exodus 4

Exodus 4:13 · Camden Bucey

Where the typological man, the son of God, Exodus 4.13 or 23, 23, where he fails. And now Jesus will succeed. But we’re looking at another dimension of that in addition to everything that’s already been said. But now considering the temptabilities, the potential temptability and peccability of Jesus

Exodus 4:13 · Camden Bucey

Sometimes on Reformed Forum we speak about protology, typology, and eschatology. We divide those eras of covenant history, and we also speak about the sons of God in each era, the protological son being Adam, the typological son being the nation of Israel, Exodus 4.13, I believe, or 23. It’s in that

Exodus 4:13 · Camden Bucey

Yeah. So we see these mountains evident throughout all of scripture and we see them, the different mountain kind of focused on a different redemptive historical or covenant historical era. So we have three sons of God in scripture, at least three figures, public figures, so to speak, that are called

Exodus 4:15 · Lane G. Tipton

Just for the quick review, you remember, we’ll use two examples from the Old Testament prophet. One is Moses, where God tells Moses in Exodus 4.15, I will put my words in your mouth, and I will be with your mouth, and you will be with Aaron’s mouth, and you will be to Aaron as a god, and Aaron will

Exodus 4:15 · Lane G. Tipton

During the time of Moses. Prophets is broader than Moses. Prophets is actually a synecdoche for the whole of Old Testament revelation, really. But just for simplifying the point, God, remember in Exodus 4.15, said,

Exodus 4:16 · Lane G. Tipton

So on page 192, Voss turns us to four texts, Exodus 4.16, Jeremiah 7.1, and Jeremiah 1.5, I think through 9 is actually probably the swatch of scripture most useful there.

Exodus 4:16 · Camden Bucey

I’ll start here in Exodus. Let me look up Exodus 4.16. I want to read 15 as well. It says, You shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth, and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth and will teach you both what to do. Now here’s verse 16. He shall speak for you to the people, and he sha

Exodus 4:22

different sons of God. Adam is called the son of God (Luke 3:38). The nation of Israel is as well (Ex 4:22). Climactically, Jesus Christ came to the earth as the now incarnate eternal Son of God. These three, as the representative protological, typological, and eschatological so

Exodus 4:22 · Lane G. Tipton

Exodus 4.22, Deuteronomy 1.31, 8.5, 32.6, Isaiah 1.2, 63.16, Jeremiah 3.19, Hosea 1.11, Malachi 1.6. But over against this claim of continuity, it is urged, now add parenthetically, by liberal scholars, it is urged, that the connection is purely formal.

Exodus 4:22 · Camden Bucey

He’s saying, no, I’m the fullness here, and I’m going to expand more fully and develop what is already present in seed form. That’s an organic development. So Exodus 4.22 says, Then you shall say to Pharaoh, Thus says the Lord, Israel is my firstborn son. In Deuteronomy 1.31, And in the wilderness w

Exodus 4:23 · Lane G. Tipton

And what Voss is pointing out here is that in Exodus 4.23, which you read earlier, God says to Pharaoh through Moses, Let my son go that he may worship me. Israel is my firstborn son. So in the development of redemptive history, moving from Abraham into Moses, into the theocracy, the theocracy as a

Exodus 4:22 · John Fesko

Well, in a nutshell, I think that if we look at Israel and consider that Israel is called God’s son in Exodus 4.22 or Hosea 11.1, and so we see this, and so that naturally, I think, leads us in the direction of, well, who is ultimately God’s only son or his only begotten son? And I think that that o

Exodus 4:22 · David Barry

And throughout Deuteronomy 32, but not just there, but all throughout the books of Moses and again and again across the scriptures, Israel is framed as the son of God. The famous reference is Exodus 4, verse 22. Moses shows up to Pharaoh and he says, let my people go. And the reason from the Lord th

Exodus 4:22 · John Fesko

or whether it’s David with his own adultery, and deception, and murder plots. Or even, for example, Israel itself, Israel, who according to Exodus 4.22, is called God’s firstborn son, and is placed in the promised land, a garden-like environment, and is given very similar types of commands and sanct

Exodus 4:22 · Bryan Estelle

so Ezekiel is emphasizing what the people failed to do and could not do remember that way back when in the Ezekiel or in Exodus chapter 4 verse 22 and 23 Israel is called a son

Exodus 4:23 · Lane G. Tipton

He does. And what this underscores is that there is a feature in the theocracy that is qualitatively unique in the history of redemption. And here’s that principle. Israel, to allude to Exodus 4.23, Israel is God’s firstborn son as a nation.

Exodus 4:23 · Lane G. Tipton

And according to Enns, the Old Testament view of Adam is this, that the Genesis narrative is a post-exile construction of Israel. Israel, outside of the land, Israel in exile, looks back and says, gee, we were once the Son of God, Exodus 4.23. We were once placed in the holy realm of Canaan.

Exodus 4:23 · Carlton Wynne

Brandon, I think your book is helpful. I’m not familiar with it, but just so far from the discussion, it helps enhance our understanding beyond just Exodus 4.23 where God says, let my son go. I mean, this is a rich theme for the life of Israel. Can you help us understand how the themes of obedience

Exodus 4:23 · Lane G. Tipton

Exodus 4.23, Israel as a nation is a son of God. And that son is to maintain the purity of not only person, but realm as a son of God. Nothing impure was to enter Eden without it being opposed and destroyed. Likewise, Canaan. So that there’s something about the law that brings a heightened recogniti

Exodus 4:23 · Lane G. Tipton

Yeah, that’s so much that we can say. Deuteronomy 8.3 and Exodus 4.23 quite clearly present Israel as a typological Son of God brought into the wilderness to worship and serve God,
