How does the book of Exodus picture redemption?
Exodus pictures redemption through Israel's deliverance from Egypt, which serves as a perfect picture of you and I being redeemed from the shackles of sin and brought to a life of freedom. The three-day journey out of Egypt is indicative of the resurrection.
Les explains that the whole book of Exodus is a picture of redemption. First, it shows Israel being redeemed out of Egypt, but it is also the perfect picture of you and I being redeemed out of the shackles of sin and brought to a life of freedom. He notes that when God tells Moses and Aaron that He wants Israel to go three days' journey out of Egypt, those three days are indicative of the resurrection. He also points out that only one thing can separate a person from slavery.
