Walk the Word NotesJan 19 Law and Gospel- seen through the entire Bible, a tool we use for studying God's Word 5.0.5 Shows Our Sins Shows Our Savior Genesis Wrap Up In Genesis speaks to beginnings: • Creation of all things • Sin and death • Help comes from Him - Christ the "seed of woman" to come • One true god • God initiates relationship and covenants with His people. He pledges His love and faithfulness to them and He calls His people to promise their to Him • God establishes sacrifice as a substitution of life for life. In Gen 3:21 the blood of the first animal sheds its blood and its skins are given to Adam and Eve to cover their shameful bodies. From then on man offers up sacrifices to God. We see this with Noah and Abraham. Exodus Intro The word "Exodus" is a Latin word derived from the Greek EXODOS. The name given to the book by those who translated it into Greek. The word means" exit" or "departure." In Hebrew the book is named after the first two words, we'elleh shemoth ("These are the names of"). The Exodus was not intended to exist separately, but was thought of as a continuation of a narrative that began in Genesis and was completed in Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy - Pentateuch or Torah. Major Themes: deliverance and salvation God's Grace in Exodus We will see seven types of Christ • Moses: prophet, priest and ruler. Endangered in infancy and voluntarily renounce power and wealth. Deliverer and mediator between God and people. • The Passover: Jesus is our Passover lamb. • The Seven Feasts: Each portrays some aspect of the ministry of Jesus. • The Exodus: Paul relates baptism to the exodus, since both bring death to the old and the beginning of the new. • The Manna and Water: The NT applies both to Jesus. • The Tabernacle: In its materials, colors, furniture, and arrangement, the tabernacle typifies the person of Jesus and the way of redemption through God's grace - with a progressive development from suffering, blood, and death to beauty, holiness and God's glory. • The High Priest: In several ways he foreshadows the ministry of Jesus, our great high priest. lAM YHWH - Yahweh or Jahovah The personal holy name of God Hebrew: i77i7t YHWH - the unvocalised YHWH is the only form that appeared in Hebrew before 800 CE, and Yahweh is a modern "best guess" scholarly convention. One theory is that Jews ceased to use the name Yahweh in the intertestamental period, replacing it with the common noun Elohim, "god", to demonstrate the universal sovereignty of Israel's God over all others. At the same time, the divine name was increasingly regarded as too sacred to be uttered, and was replaced in spoken ritual by the word Adonai ("My Lord"), or with haShem ("the Name") in everyday speech, see Names of God in Judaism for details. The Bible describes Yahweh as the one true God who delivered Israel from Egypt and gave the Ten Commandments: "Then God spoke all these words. He said, 'I am Yahweh your God who brought you out of Egypt, where you lived as slaves. You shall have no other gods to rival me.'" Yahweh revealed himself to Israel as a God who would not permit his people to make idols or follow gods of other nations or worship gods known by other names, "I am Yahweh, that is My name; I will not give My glory to another, or My praise to idols." Yahweh demanded the role of the one true God in the hearts and minds of Israel, "Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God; Yahweh is one: and you shall love Yahweh your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.".
