Exodus Chapter 1 Discussion Page 5

This book is very interesting.We can learn a lot of its passages for teaching at the church.

What is amazing to me is that it says in verse 12 but the more they afflicted them the more they grew and multiplied .. it 's like that with the children of God the more Satan afflicts us will not stop us because God is greater in us he puts stuff on us to stop us and bring us down but God is the one that has the last say

Exodus teaching is very power full to a human being to know about a covenant between God and a human being during moses times how our God is great and wonderful in our lives since those days till know days.

If God be for you.who can be against you. Gods children will prevail.

I think the verse is a statement of facts as the Egyptian midwives saw them. Hebrew women were rural, hardworking unsophisticated. Many delivered their kids in the fields. The more they did this, the easier their future labours became. Egyptian women were urban, sophisticated spoilt. They were more likely to make "a fuss " about having children including using the services of midwives.

Exodus is a book covenant and commandments.

I think Joseph did a good job forgiving his brothers after what they did to him i read the bible a lot and this is one of my favorite stories. God has given me hope faith love and protection.

Excelent teaching

Exodus is all about, moving on, shifting towards your devine destination.

The fear of God is very important for us as a christian,because the midwives have the fear of God they didn't do according to the law of the king of egypt,but save the lives of the men children.

To Charles
Your answer is not a simple yes! During the reign of the Pharaoh who …"did not recognize Joseph" (Due to his hatred of the Israelites, could not give credit for the past for fear of repercussions in the future) …. had three advisers to whom he gave great weight to their suggestions. Job (Iyov), Yetro (future father in law of Moses) and the worst of the three, Bil'am. He was the insidious adviser who came up with the idea of drowning all the male babies, and Pharaoh simply enjoyed the thought. He did order the women to do so but it was not his idea.

Exodus is not only inspirational, but it is a book of authority, a book of direction. This book teaches us how we should be guided by GOD! HE leads us but so often in the flesh we have our own agenda and decide to do what we want. We should listen and be obedient to what GOD says!

Our God promises are unchangeable, he revealed to Jacob in Genesis that he should not be afraid to enter Egypt, for he will be fruitful and multiple. Therefore Pharoah just waiting his time and energy it is written that God words that not come back to him voided.

I believe that it's either that Pharoah was stupid or over presumtuous.
How can he ask the Hebrew midwives to kill their own and expect them to do it? He was a very proud and arrogant person who thinks that nobody can disobey him. Well he was wrong because the love of God in the hearts of those women is more than the fear of him.
God was obviousely taking him through kiddergarton of who he is before the primary and then the upper school and finally the degree level of his mightiness. Aweson!

Everything is good

Hebrew midwives didn't obey the Egyptian king,instead they obeyed God ,better to obey God & fear Him.

@Charles

Pharaoh DID NOT order the Egyptian women to kill their newborn sons. The HEBREW MIDWIVES were ordered to kill the sons of HEBREW WOMEN ( Exodus 1:15-16) but because they FEARED GOD, THEY DID NOT OBEY PHARAOH'S COMMANDMENT ( Exodus 1:17).

guestion: did pharaoh order the Egyption women to kill their newborn sons?

Exodus is very inspirationak because its educates us the life the israelites went through in Egypt.

exodus 1:12 tells me that growth comes as a result of affliction, for the more the afflicted them the more the Israelite grew.

in exodus moses was physical deliverer for the children of israel but today Jesus Christ is our spiritual deliverer.

it's sad how Joseph was forgotten like that, wow.

When enemy sees your destiny, he will try to destroy it. But with God on your side, your destiny is secured. Amen.

The verse really served as an eye opener for me i now believe my delievery shall be like the hebrew women.

God has a plan in every that happens

I like Exodus because it has Moses & teaches the Egyptians not to mess with the power of God!!! History Channel proves that God IS real.
