Adding information with reference to the May 31 Bedford Road message.

Erik Talks about how Egyptians appear to have viewed their gods and the concept of divinity, which is quite different from our own western view, which is heavily influenced by Judeo-Christian monotheism.

Some reflections on the title El Shadday and its significance to pre-Exodus Hebrew religion, as well as the religion of other people like Midian,

Erik discusses why God requires the Israelites to redeem their firstborn sons.

Who were the Midianites, and why is the Mountain of God in their region? Some people have a lot of outlandish theories about that, which are almost all based on mythologies developed in sectarian literature from the Second Temple period. I have a different view of the issue.

This week was busy, so this episode is a bit late. We talk about the priest of Midian, the nature of Moses's basket, and a bunch of other bits and pieces.

A discussion of assorted topics in Exodus 1-2. This was recorded on a new platform. I'm not in love with it.

Erik discusses a bit about the way Israel would have moved into Egypt while Jacob and Joseph were still alive. Along the way, he discusses the geography of Egypt and a few other asides.

Erik takes a few minutes to talk about our short "mini-series" for Resurrection season. He will be speaking from Hebrews 12 for Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Resurrection Sunday. They will really be one lengthy sermon divided into three parts.

A slightly deeper look into the armor of God in Ephesians.
