Redemption (2 of 5)
Series: Christ in the Old Testament
D. Marion Clark
Exodus 15:1-18
Introduction
We are continuing our walk along the Emmaus Road. The two disciples used a particular word to describe the common Jewish expectation of the Messiah: ''we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel'' (Luke 24:21). Redeem is the primary term by which the Jews understood the Messiah's work.

your lightnings lighted up the world;
the earth trembled and shook.
19 Your way was through the sea,
your path through the great waters;
yet your footprints were unseen.
20 You led your people like a flock
by the hand of Moses and Aaron (Psalm 77:14-20).
He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry,
and he led them through the deep as through a desert.
10 So he saved them from the hand of the foe
and redeemed them from the power of the enemy.
11 And the waters covered their adversaries;
not one of them was left (Psalm 106:9-11).
This is how God himself described his work of deliverance:
Say therefore to the people of Israel, ''I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from slaver ...
