Exodus chapters 3-4

1 Exodus 3 Moses was


looking after the flock of
his father-in-law, Jethro.
He led them to the far
side of the wilderness to
graze, by a mountain
called Horeb.

2 He watched a bush that


had caught fire and
noticed it did not burn
up.

3 So Moses decided to
take a closer look.
Suddenly God called to
him from inside the
burning bush, ‘Moses.’
‘Here I am Lord,’ Moses
replied.
4 God told Moses to take
off his shoes for he was
on holy ground. ‘I am
the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob,’ God
announced. At this,
Moses hid his face for he
was afraid to look at
God.

5 God told Moses that he


had seen the suffering of
the Hebrew slaves. He
was going to rescue
them and lead them to a
land of milk and honey
where they would be
free.

6 ‘Go to Pharaoh and bring


my people out of Egypt’,
God instructed. Moses
started making excuses.
‘Who am I to do this?’

7 God promised to be with


Moses. He also promised
that He would make a
way for the Hebrews to
come and worship Him
on this mountain.

8 ‘But if I go to the Hebrew


leaders, who shall I say
sent me? ‘ asked Moses.
9 Tell them, ‘IAM WHO I
AM’, has sent you. I am
the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob. My
name is forever.’

10 God instructed Moses to


go to the leaders of
Israel with the message
God was going to rescue
them from slavery and
lead them to the land He
had promised. Moses
and the leaders were
then to tell Pharaoh to
let the Hebrews go and
worship the Lord God in
the wilderness.

11 Exodus 4 Moses still


kept making excuses.
‘But what if they won’t
listen to me?’ he said.

12 God asked Moses what


he held in his hand. ‘A
staff,’ replied Moses.
‘Throw it to the ground,’
said the Lord.

13 When he threw his staff


to the ground it became
a snake. Moses was
scared and jumped away
from it. ‘Reach out your
hand and take the snake
by the tail,’ said the
Lord.
14 As Moses grabbed the
snake’s tail, it turned
back into a staff. ‘This
sign will help them
believe,’ said the Lord
God. ‘Now put your hand
inside your cloak.’

15 Moses put his hand


inside his cloak but
when he pulled it back
out it was white with a
terrible skin disease
called leprosy. ‘Now put
your hand back in your
cloak,’ God ordered.

16 When Moses pulled his


hand out from his cloak
a second time his hand
was healed.

17 ‘If the Hebrew leaders


don’t believe these two
signs then take some
water from the Nile and
pour it on the dry
ground. I will make the
water turn to blood,’ the
Lord told Moses.

18 But Moses still kept


making excuses. ‘I find it
hard to speak well or
very clearly.’ ‘Who gave
people their mouths?’
replied the Lord. ‘I will
help you speak and
teach you what to say.’
19 But Moses still made
excuses. ‘Please send
someone else to do this.’

20 God was angry with


Moses. ‘Your brother,
Aaron the Levite, can
speak well. He is on his
way to meet you. He will
be your spokesman.
Take your staff in your
hand so you will be able
to perform miracles.’

21 So Moses returned to his


father-in law Jethro and
asked his permission to
return to his people in
Egypt. ‘Go, I wish you
well,’ replied Jethro.

22 Aaron had already been


told by God to travel to
meet them. Moses put
his wife and sons on
donkeys ready for the
journey. ‘The Egyptians,
who remembered what
you did and wanted
revenge are now all
dead,’ God reassured
Moses.

23 The two brothers met up


at Mount Horeb, the
mountain of God, and
welcomed each other.
24 Moses shared with Aaron
all that God had told
him. Then they all set off
for Egypt to tell the
Hebrew leaders that God
had plans to rescue
them.
