‘Meet the Lord God who claims a people for Himself’ (Exodus 13:1-16)

In Exodus 13:1-16, the drama of chapters 7 to 12 of Exodus have passed by. The people of Israel are now free from the clutches of Pharaoh. Not yet completely free to ‘do their own thing’, but free to serve the Lord their God who led them out of Egypt into the desert regions in the direction of the Red Sea. There, God gave the people of Israel a reminder that they were His, and His alone, and their responsibility in the world was to be just that – His redeemed people for His very own – just like God’s people are today with Jesus as Redeemer and Master.
