Exodus 7-11
Well if you were here last week we began a study of the book of Exodus and the story of the Exodus the people of Israel leaving bondage in the land of Egypt and making their way to the promised land of Canaan is of course one of the most famous stories in Bible and really all of literature. And of course this isn’t just a story in literature but also it is a story in history. Here at Valleydale we believe that the biblical accounts of scripture in as much as the author intended to be giving an account are true, accurate, and trustworthy. So not that we need external sources to believe these accounts, but it is noteworthy that external sources in recorded history, archeology, and even in climatology continue to verify what we read in scripture.
