The Book of Exodus: The Dwelling Place (The Passion Translation)
About this ebook
Exodus showcases Yahweh’s power over human empires of oppression and confirms his loving, relational heart. In the wilderness, his guidance and provision prove he is a savior and deliverer we can trust. Yahweh demonstrates his passionate desire to live among us by revealing to the Israelites his holy name, his law, and detailed instructions for building the dwelling place.
Nothing can limit the dynamic nature of Yahweh. As we witness his compassion and power to save, we feel the reality of his living presence with his people—both then and now.
“Yahweh! Yahweh, the mighty God, the gracious God, full of tender mercy. I am slow to anger, and I overflow with unchanging love. You can trust me, for my faithful love will endure for thousands of generations.”
Exodus 34:6–7
