“The exodus was not a movement from slavery to freedom, but from slavery to covenant. Redemption was for relationship with the redeemer, to serve his interests and his purposes in the world.”

“When I’ve been teaching for a while, I sometimes stop abruptly and say, «you know, something very strange happened while I was on my journey here today.» Immediately people look up and take an interest. They want to know what happened. They want to hear the story. I usually then dissapoint them by saying, «Actually, nothing happened. But I notice how interested you all became when you though I was going to tell you a story.. That shows how powerful stories are in engaging attention. That’s why God gave us so many stories in the Bible. God knows how to get our attention.»”
