The Exodus

The Exodus is the biblical story of the Israelites' escape from slavery in Egypt, led by Moses around the 13th or 15th century BCE. It symbolizes liberation and faith, recounting how Moses, with divine guidance, convinced the Pharaoh to free the Israelites, who then journeyed through the desert toward the Promised Land. The narrative highlights themes of deliverance, covenant, and divine law, especially given through the Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai. While its historical accuracy is debated, the story remains a foundational event representing hope, freedom, and God's relationship with His people.
