Week 9 — Dec 1-7: (Exo 23-40, Lev 1-5)

✝️ This is a continuation of Exodus this week. ✝️

4 | Ten Commandments (Exodus 19–24)
God descends on Mount Sinai in fire and smoke. He gives the Ten Commandments, moral laws, and civil instructions. Israel solemnly agrees to the covenant, sealing their commitment through blood and obedience.

5 | Tabernacle (Exodus 25–31)
God commands the construction of the Ark of the Covenant, the tabernacle, and the priestly system, establishing a dwelling place for His presence among His people. These detailed instructions lay the foundation for Israel’s worship.

6 | The Golden Calf & Second Tablets (Exodus 32–40)
While Moses is on the mountain, Israel makes a golden calf to worship. God is furious, but Moses intercedes. God forgives, renews the covenant, and tells Moses to carve new tablets, as Moses in his anger had broken the 10 commandments tablets when he saw the golden calf. When the tabernacle is finished, God’s cloud fills it.

Key Verses:

Exodus 20:2-3 "– I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Thou shalt have no other gods before me." – The Ten Commandments establish God’s authority and moral law.

Exodus 33:14 – "And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest." – God assures His people of His presence and guidance.

I have been meaning for a while now to really sit down and read the entire Bible cover to cover. When I was younger, I always had trouble comprehending the King James version (KJV). I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about because that's what we had mostly at the time. After I got older, I purchased some additional Bibles in different translations to see if it would help my comprehension. And so far, I am proud to say it has. I have a prophecy study Bible that is the KJV. What I love the most is that it has detailed descriptions of prophecy throughout the Bible as well as colored charts that help explain timelines of things that are going to happen, particularly in Revelation. I also have an Amplified Bible that has the KJV and the AMP translation side-by-side. The third one I have that I love is The Voice translation. It reads almost like a story book which is wonderful for me. I figured out that if I can read 3 to 4 chapters a day or a total of 23 a week, I sh...

End of Numbers recap... 5 | A New Generation (Numbers 26–32) Another census counts the next generation, marking a new beginning. Joshua is appointed as Moses’ successor, preparing to lead.

God gives laws for life in the Promised Land, ensuring Israel’s faithfulness. 6 | Final Instructions (Numbers 33–36) God recounts Israel’s journey and commands them to drive out Canaan’s inhabitants. The book ends with Israel on the brink of the Promised Land, ready to enter under Joshua’s leadership.  ✝️ Deuteronomy ✝️  Deuteronomy is Moses’ farewell address to Israel as they camp on Moab’s plains, poised to cross the Jordan. Their tents flutter beneath hot desert winds as they gather to listen. He rehearses the forty-year trek from Sinai, recalling rebellions, manna, serpents, and victories so the new generation will trust ...

Week 8 — Nov 24-30: (Gen 50, Exo 1-22)

Exodus tells how God frees Israel from slavery and shapes them into a covenant nation. The story begins with a new Pharaoh who fears the growing Hebrews and forces them into harsh labor. God protects baby Moses, who is raised in Pharaoh’s palace yet flees after defending a fellow Hebrew. Years later, at a burning bush in the desert, God sends Moses back to Egypt with a promise of rescue. There He reveals the divine name “I AM.” With his brother Aaron, Moses confronts Pharaoh. Ten escalating plagues show God’s power and expose Egypt’s idols. The final plague, the death of firstborn sons, passes over homes marked by lamb’s blood. Pharaoh finally lets the people go, but soon pursues them. God parts the Red Sea, Israel crosses on dry ground, and the pursuing army is swept away. A pillar of cloud by day and fire by night guides and protects them. In the wilderness God provides water, manna, and quail, teaching trust. At Mount Sinai He meets the people with thunder an...
