Cecil B. DeMille asked, "Are men property of the state? Or are they free souls under God? This same battle continues throughout the world today." In the movie “The Ten Commandments".
Both Jesus and Moses came to set the captive free. Are the people of the world in need of another Exodus?
Moses was returning every man to his family and his possessions, restoring the right to choose as individuals with no king, president, or prime minister, where the people were the government of, for, and by the people.[1]
The Pharaohs, Cains, and Nimrods of the world create welfare systems that not only degenerate the masses but are a snare because their tables are filled with deceitful meats which return the people to the bondage of Egypt.

The Book of Exodus

Exodus gets its name from Ancient the ancient Greek term ξοδος which was Romanized to Exodus which we write as Exodus today.

It is the second book of the Bible which narrates the story of the bondage, Moses, the plagues, their departure and the adventures of the Israelites as they leave the Biblical bondage of Egypt through the the power and wisdom of a God who is identified by Moses as Yahweh.

The bondage begins

Jacob's sons who had sold their brother into bondages join their brother Joseph in Egypt with their families because of a dearth in the land. They were at that point in the bondage of Egypt employed by the Pharaohs forever since one-fifth of their labor and the labor of the people in Egypt now belonged to the governments of the Pharaohs.

Based on the Masoretic Text some believe they were in Egypt for four hundred years but the earlier Hebrew text says they were in Egypt and Canaan for four hundred years, not just Egypt.

The time frame of Moses and this exodus comes into series conflict with the modern acceptance of the dates of Egyptian dynasties and kingdoms.

More is still being discovered by modern archeologists that seems to contradict many of the conclusions about the past which brings the validity of the biblical text into a much more credible context but the old school of archeologists are slow to alter their thinking.

The story begins

The story begins with a new Pharaoh, who does not remember how Joseph had saved Egypt from famine and gave his kingdom the power to tax the labor of his people through the fall out of a famine. He begins to oppress the people of Israel and instituted systems of forced tribute or corvee and a institutions of social welfare that weakened the people.

The theme of the Bible warns us of the practices and certain institution put upon people. Warnings are repeated throughout the text about tables that become a snare and can entangle us in a yoke of bondage< make us merchandise bringing again heavy burdens on the people that they again cast out their own children through peccaries and infanticide. But Israel cried out and was heard.

The Way Out

It is during this time that Moses was timely generated and hid by his mother a Levite woman who sets him adrift on the river Nile in a waterproof basket or ark of bulrushes. Pharaoh's daughter finds the child, names him Moses, and out of sympathy and love adopts the Hebrew boy, brings him up as her own, hiring the natural mother as a nanny.

The Greek word éxodos literally means the way out but the Hebrew name of this Book of Exodus is the word שְׁמוֹת Šəmōṯ which is said to mean "Names". In Hebrew the word name has more meaning than our modern term but has to do with the identity of the heart and mind of a thing or individual. The root word shem consisting of two letters ShinMem means name but the word Šəmōṯ includes the letters ShinMemVavTav which includes an idea connected to Faith.

Who was Moses in Egyptian History, why he left Egypt and why he came back to free those who would follow the way of Yahweh and exactly what that way consists of is controversial. Exploring what the meaning of words are will be important but exploring our own hearts and minds will be critical in order for us to find our way out.

Turtledove

Those people living in Mesopotamia (the area of modern Iraq) that dominated the region for a period of 4200 years used the symbol of a dove to represent their systems of social welfare through the State which snared the people in a form of corvee where they became human resources in a civil or a legal captivity similar to the bondage of Egypt.
