Moses, Moses


Exodus 3:1-4:17

Key Verse 3:4


Read verse 1. What does this passage tell us about Moses’ life thus far? 

Read verses 2-3. What did Moses see? What did he think of the scene? Why do you think the Lord God appeared in this way before calling Moses’ name? 

Read verse 4. What does this passage show us about the Lord’s relationship with Moses? 

Read verses 5-10 and compare the Lord’s words (“take off your sandals”) in verse 5 and the Lord’s command (“So now, go”) in verses 6-10. The word “Then” (in verse 6) indicates that it was only after Moses had complied with Lord’s request that the Lord issued the command to go. Why?

Think about Moses’ following excuses in the rest of the passage. 

Who am I that I should go…(3:11)

“[If] they ask me, what shall I tell them”? (3:13)

“What if they do not believe me or listen to me…” (4:1)

“O Lord, I have never been eloquent…” (4:10; cf. Acts 7:22)

“O Lord, please send someone else to do it” (4:13)

What do Moses’ excuses tell us about him?

How did the Lord overcome each of Moses’ excuses?
