Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 7.
“The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch out my hand against Egypt and bring out the people of Israel.” Aaron’s staff becomes a snake, and when his staff strikes the Nile, it turns to blood. The true confrontation begins in Exodus 7, as God provokes Pharaoh’s proud anger. God’s purpose is twofold: to break Pharaoh’s will and secure the release of His people, and to publicly reveal His glory to all Egypt. Egypt is judged rightly, but the purpose is repentance and salvation, just as it was later in the destruction of Jerusalem, when Christ was revealed as the true Temple for all people, even for Egypt.
