Rev. Dr. Charlie Dates and Dr. Michelle Knight join Holy Curiosity to share their pastoral and scholarly insights into the biblical figure of Moses and his leadership role as a judge. From his early years in Egypt to his 40-year preparation in what Charlie describes as the "seminary of solitude," Moses emerges as a heroic yet relatable figure whose journey epitomizes divine intervention and the struggle for justice. Charlie's reflections on the Exodus story, particularly the parting of the Red Sea, provide a vivid example of God's power and Moses's role as a deliverer, urging us to consider how we too might be agents of change in our environments. Dr. Michelle Knight shares the historical and spiritual role of judges in the Bible, exploring how these pivotal figures shaped the governance and moral compass of ancient Israelite society. From Moses, who first assumed the judgeship by divine assignment, to the rest of the judges in Scripture, this discussion unpacks the significance of the judgeship role and what the Bible teaches us about leaders worth following.
