Moses page 22 by ric gustafson
" Listen to my instructions". Moses told the gathered Elders. " We must do everything according to plan".
" What are those instructions Moses?".
" On the tenth day of the month, each family shall take a lamb that is one year old without defect". His voice hesitated. " At twilight on the fourteenth day, it must be slaughtered".
" Then what Moses?".
" You are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes".
" Why is that?".
" That night God is going to pass through Egypt and strike down all the firstborn who do not have blood on their doors".
On the night of the Lord's Passover, the Hebrews stayed in their homes.
The cries of the Egyptians sounded all night.
That night, Moses was summoned to Pharaoh's private chamber.
The next morning, the Hebrews heard a familiar voice.
It was Moses. " Come, redemption is here".
