Hey Tim.

Hello, John.

Hi.

We are wrapping up the Exodus Way series.

And this little surprise episode.

Yeah, bonus episode.

There's a really amazing stone at the beginning of the Exodus story that we wanted to turn over.

And to do that,

we actually wanted to bring in a colleague of mine and a fellow member of the scholarship

team here at Bible Project to do that. But what we want to talk about is the design of the

early chapters of Exodus has such a cool set of features to it. And one of them is that all of the

most important delivering, rescuing figures in the early chapters of Exodus are female characters.

And lo and behold, there's not just one, not just two, not three, not four, not five, not six, but there's seven.

Seven.

Of course there are female rescuers.

Without whom the Exodus story would not have taken place.

Yeah.

We tend to focus on the single male deliverer figure, Moses, and of course, like that's right there.

He's a key figure, but Moses wouldn't even be alive if it weren't for the seven female rescuers.

So there's so much we're going to explore.

So let's bring in my colleague Tamara Knudson.

Tamara, hello.
