Yes, Israel's escape from Egypt is a pattern repeated in Revelation, with the Antichrist as a new Pharaoh and God's protection paralleled.
Les Feldick teaches that the language and events of Israel's exodus from Egypt are mirrored in Revelation 12 and 14. The woman (Israel) flees with eagle's wings, the Antichrist pursues like Pharaoh, and God intervenes to protect His people, just as at the Red Sea.
Revelation 12:14 — This verse directly parallels Exodus 19:4 with the imagery of 'two wings of a great eagle' given to the woman (Israel) to flee into the wilderness.
Exodus 19:4 — This verse describes God carrying Israel on eagles' wings, providing the foundational imagery that is repeated in Revelation.
In Exodus 19:4, God tells Israel, 'Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.' This describes His deliverance of Israel from Egypt, carrying them as on eagles' wings to Himself. Later, in Revelation 12:14, the woman (representing Israel) is given 'two wings of a great eagle' to fly into the wilderness to a place prepared by God, where she is nourished for 1,260 days (three and a half years). In Revelation 12:15-16, the serpent (the Antichrist) casts out water like a flood to sweep her away, but the earth opens its mouth and swallows the flood, providing deliverance.
Les Feldick teaches that the events of Israel's exodus from Egypt are a deliberate pattern for the end-times events in Revelation. He points out the identical language of 'eagle's wings' in Exodus 19:4 and Revelation 12:14, showing that God uses the same imagery to describe His deliverance. He explains that just as Pharaoh sent his army to destroy Israel, the Antichrist will send an armed force to pursue the fleeing Jewish remnant. God will intervene, just as at the Red Sea, to destroy the pursuing forces. Les emphasizes that this is a constant parallel, showing God's sovereign protection of His people in both eras.
Les Feldick highlights that Exodus 19:4 and Revelation 12:14 use almost identical language: 'eagle's wings' and 'two wings of a great eagle.' He explains that this is not coincidence but a deliberate parallel, tying the two events together. In both cases, God provides supernatural means for Israel to escape to safety.
Les Feldick teaches that the Antichrist will repeat Pharaoh's role. Just as Pharaoh sent his army and chariots after Israel to destroy them, the Antichrist will send an armed force after the fleeing Jewish remnant. This pursuit is driven by hatred, and God will intervene to destroy the pursuers, just as He drowned the Egyptians in the Red Sea.
According to Les Feldick, the woman (Israel) is given a place prepared by God in the wilderness, where she is nourished for 1,260 days (three and a half years). This parallels God's care for Israel in the wilderness with manna and water from the rock. The woman is protected from the Antichrist's flood, which the earth swallows, symbolizing God's sovereign intervention.
The Woman's Flight into the Wilderness
Les identifies the woman as Israel, fleeing into the wilderness with a place prepared by God, nourished for 1,260 days.
The Eagle's Wings Parallel
Les connects the 'two wings of a great eagle' in Revelation 12:14 to Exodus 19:4, showing identical language.
The Eagle's Wings Analogy
Les explains that the eagle's wings symbolize God's deliverance, not literal flight, and ties it to the Exodus.
Pharaoh's Pursuit and the Antichrist's
Les parallels Pharaoh's command to destroy Israel with the Antichrist's pursuit of the fleeing remnant.
The Flood and the Earth's Help
Les explains that the flood from the serpent's mouth is an armed force, and the earth swallowing it parallels the Red Sea deliverance.
God's Intervention
Les emphasizes that God intervenes to destroy the Antichrist's forces just as He drowned the Egyptians.
God's Provision in the Wilderness
Les connects God's care in the wilderness with manna and water to the nourishment of the remnant during the tribulation.
Isolation from Afflictions
Les notes that as Israel was insulated from the plagues in Goshen, the remnant will be protected from the tribulation's ravages.
Exodus 19:4: Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself.
This verse provides the foundational imagery of God's deliverance of Israel, which is later echoed in Revelation.
Revelation 12:6: And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
This describes the woman's flight and God's provision, paralleling the Exodus.
Revelation 12:14: And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
This verse directly parallels Exodus 19:4 with the eagle's wings imagery and the wilderness refuge.
Revelation 12:15: And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
This depicts the Antichrist's attempt to destroy Israel, similar to Pharaoh's pursuit.
Revelation 12:16: And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
This shows God's intervention to protect Israel, echoing the Red Sea deliverance.
Yes, the language of eagle's wings in Exodus 19:4 and Revelation 12:14 shows a direct parallel, as Les Feldick points out. The events of deliverance and pursuit are also mirrored.
According to Les Feldick, the flood represents an armed force sent by the Antichrist to destroy the fleeing Jewish remnant, just as Pharaoh sent his army after Israel.
The Bible states she will be nourished for 1,260 days, which is three and a half years, as Les Feldick explains.
