In this illuminating exploration through the book of Exodus, Frances Hogan elucidates a few reasons why God allowed his chosen people, Israel, to experience profound slavery. Their sufferings, while distressing, served a purifying purpose. Drawing parallels with the purification of the Church before Christ's return, as depicted in the book of Revelation, it emphasizes the transformative nature of adversity.
The focus then shifts to the second chapter, where Hogan examines the pivotal moment when Moses, the sole survivor of Pharaoh's decree to slaughter male infants, is saved through divine intervention. This incident also showcases the profound trust Moses' mother placed in God as she safely concealed her child in a basket among the reeds along the riverbank. There was something remarkable about Moses, evident in both his character and faith, marking him as uniquely destined to deliver God's chosen people and serve as the mediator of the covenant of Sinai. Hogan further highlights the striking contradictions within Moses' life and his symbolic significance as a prefiguration of the Messiah yet to come.
