The World English Bible (WEB): Exodus
Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Exodus
From www.ebible.org with slight reformatting by Martin Ward
"The World English Bible (WEB): Exodus" by Anonymous is a religious text that is part of the biblical narrative, likely compiled in the early centuries AD. This book recounts the story of the Israelites' enslavement in Egypt, their liberation through divine intervention, and the subsequent trials and tribulations they face as a chosen people. Central to the narrative is the figure of Moses, who emerges as the leader tasked with guiding the Israelites out of bondage and receiving the law from God. The opening of "Exodus" sets the stage for the dramatic events that unfold, highlighting the plight of the Israelites under Pharaoh's oppressive rule. It begins with a genealogical account of the sons of Israel who settled in Egypt, followed by the rise of a new king who is threatened by their increasing population. This fear leads to harsh oppression, including the ordering of Hebrew midwives to kill newborn boys. The narrative introduces Moses as a child, hidden from persecution and ultimately raised in Pharaoh's household after being rescued. As Moses grows up, he becomes aware of his Hebrew heritage and witnesses the suffering of his people, leading to his commitment to fight for their freedom, culminating in his encounter with God at the burning bush that marks the beginning of his prophetic mission. The opening chapters lay the groundwork for themes of liberation, identity, and divine covenant that permeate throughout the text. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
