Exodus Old and New

A Biblical Theology of Redemption (Essential Studies in Biblical Theology Series, Book 2)

De: L. Michael Morales

Narrado por: Timothy Andrés Pabon

With Israel's exodus out of Egypt, God established a pattern to help us understand the salvation of all his people - Israel and the nations - through Jesus Christ.

In Exodus Old and New, L. Michael Morales examines the key elements of three major redemption movements in Scripture: the exodus out of Egypt, the second exodus foretold by the prophets, and the new exodus accomplished by Jesus Christ. We discover how the blood of a Passover lamb helps us grasp the significance of Jesus' death on the cross, how the Lord's defeat of Pharaoh foreshadowed Jesus' victory over Satan, how Israel's exodus out of Egypt unfolds the meaning of the resurrection, and much more.

The second volume in the ESBT series, Exodus Old and New reveals how Old Testament stories of salvation provide insight into the accomplishments of Jesus and the unity of God's purposes across history. Essential Studies in Biblical Theology (ESBT), edited by Benjamin L. Gladd, explore the central or essential themes of the Bible's grand storyline. Taking cues from Genesis 1-3, authors trace the presence of these themes throughout the entire sweep of redemption history. Written for students, church leaders, and laypeople, the ESBT offers an introduction to biblical theology.

Outstanding

This is one of the best books available on Audible. I very much hope that more titles from the series will be available soon.

very nice marriaging of the OT to the NT.

probably the best overview of the parallels between Jesus's life and purpose to the OT topologies. Narration was good, content was full and without filler content, evidence backed with verses. The only downside is that, like with all studies, the source material is omitted. If you don't know the Bible, perhaps this would be difficult to follow without pausing and researching. But that isn't the author's flaw so much as unfortunate limitations.

great read!

Will be purchasing a paper copy to mark up. This was a great read on types and shadows.

Morales is great

And the narrator was good too. Would love to have Morales’ Leviticus book on Audible someday

Thoroughly enjoyed it

Looking forward to reading the book. This came highly recommended from other brothers and was truly a delight.

Relevant and uplifting

Extremely relevant for our Christian walk.
Helps see the whole picture. Thank you, writer and narrator.

A deeper understanding of the meaning of Exodus for all Christians

Beautiful harmony of the Exodus story as a metaphor for God’s work of redemption through Jesus. My only complaint is feeling a little list when the author references supporting scripture with a list of texts. I bought the book so I could stop and check them out when I had time. I can skim read the book because I understand the logic and patterns of the Exodus metaphor. Together the teaching was perfect.

Great Biblical Theological Study of the Theme of Exodus in Scripture

This book is a fantastic exploration of the theme of exodus throughout Scripture. Excellent biblical theological treatment of the topic, with plenty of references for further study. much to chew on in this book, and with great profit. Highly recommended.

Servant of Isaiah like walking on the road to Emmaus

I felt like I was walking on the Road to Emmaus hearing the discussion of why the Son of Man must suffer and die and rise.
Morales connects Isaiah's Servant Theme of a second exodus in the Book of Isaiah, particularly in chapters 40-55, which emphasizes Israel's failure as Yahweh's servant and the promise of a new servant who will fulfill this role. The historical exodus from Egypt is briefly recounted, highlighting Israel's failure to spread Yahweh's glory among the nations. Isaiah addresses this disconnect, indicating that Israel's rebellion leads to their exile, yet there remains hope for redemption.

The transformation of Zion, moving from a defiled state to a renewed Israel that fulfills its vocation as Yahweh's servant. This transformation is linked to the mysterious figure of the servant, introduced in the "servant songs" of Isaiah. The first song identifies Israel as Yahweh's servant, tasked with bringing justice and light to the nations. Subsequent songs introduce a new embodiment of Israel, a singular servant who will restore both Israel and the nations.

The suffering and exaltation of this servant, culminating in Isaiah 53, which describes the servant's sacrificial role in atoning for Israel's sins. This suffering is essential for Israel's redemption and transformation, leading to the emergence of a renewed Israel composed of both Jews and Gentiles. Ultimately, the chapter emphasizes that the servant's mission is to bring about a new exodus, enabling a community of faithful servants who will glorify Yahweh among the nations.
