Russell Stendal Teaches on Exodus Chapters 15-17 [Spanish]
Exodus 15 (JUB)
1 Then Moses and the sons of Israel sang this song unto the Lord and spoke, saying, I will sing unto the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
2 The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my saving health; he is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
3 The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is his name.
4 Pharaoh’s chariots and his host he has cast into the sea; his chosen princes also are drowned in the Red Sea.
5 The depths have covered them; they sank into the bottom as a stone.
6 Thy right hand, O Lord, is become glorious in power; thy right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces.
7 And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown those that rose up against thee; thou didst send forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.
8 And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as a heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my soul shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.
10 Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them. They sank as lead in the mighty waters.
11 Who is like unto thee, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like thee, magnificent in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
12 Thou didst stretch out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.
13 Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed; thou hast guided them in thy strength unto the habitation of thy holiness.
14 The peoples shall hear and be afraid; sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling, shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.
16 Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone, until thy people pass over, O Lord, until the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.
17 Thou shalt bring them in and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place of thy dwelling which thou hast made ready, O Lord, in the Sanctuary of the Lord, which thy hands have established.
18 The Lord shall reign for ever and ever.
19 For Pharaoh went in on horseback with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the sons of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.
20 And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21 And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.
22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness and found no water.
23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter; therefore the name of it was called Marah.
24 Then the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 And he cried unto the Lord; and the Lord showed him a tree, which when he had cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There he gave them statutes and rights, and there he proved them
26 and said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God and wilt do that which is right in his sight and wilt give ear to his commandments and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians; for I am the Lord thy Healer.
27 And they came to Elim, where there were twelve fountains of water and seventy palm trees; and they encamped there by the waters.
Exodus 16 (JUB)
1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
2 And the whole congregation of the sons of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness;
3 and the sons of Israel said unto them, It would have been better if we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots and when we ate bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
4 Then the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather the word for every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or not.
5 And it shall come to pass that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in, which shall be twice as much as they gather daily.
6 Then Moses and Aaron said unto all the sons of Israel, At evening ye shall know that the Lord has brought you out from the land of Egypt;
7 And in the morning ye shall see the glory of the Lord; for he has heard your murmurings against the Lord; and what are we, that ye murmur against us?
8 And Moses said, This shall be when the Lord shall give you in the evening flesh to eat and in the morning bread to the full; for the Lord has heard your murmurings which ye have murmured against him; and what are we? Your murmurings are not against us, but against the Lord.
9 And Moses spoke unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the sons of Israel, Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your murmurings.
10 And it came to pass as Aaron spoke unto the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.
11 And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying,
12 I have heard the murmurings of the sons of Israel; speak unto them, saying, Between the two evenings ye shall eat flesh, and tomorrow ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God.
13 And it came to pass, that in the evening quail came up, and covered the camp; and in the morning the dew descended round about the host.
14 And when the dew ceased to descend, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
15 And when the sons of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna (What is it?): for they did not know what it was. Then Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord has given you to eat.
16 This is the thing which the Lord has commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for each one, according to the number of your persons; take ye each one for those who are in his tent.
17 And the sons of Israel did so and gathered, some more, some less.
18 And when they did measure it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered each one according to his eating.
19 And Moses said, Let no one leave of it until the morning.
20 Notwithstanding they did not hearken unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms and stank; and Moses was angry with them.
21 And they gathered it early in the morning, each one according to his eating; and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.
22 And it came to pass that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one; and all the princes of the congregation came and told Moses.
23 And he said unto them, This is what the Lord has said, Tomorrow is the holy sabbath of rest unto the Lord; bake that which ye will bake today and cook what ye will cook; and that which remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
24 And they laid it up until the morning as Moses bade; and it did not stink, neither was there any worm in it.
25 And Moses said, Eat that today; for today is a sabbath unto the Lord; today ye shall not find it in the field.
26 Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
27 And it came to pass that some of the people went out on the seventh day to gather, and they found none.
28 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
29 See that the Lord has given you the sabbath; therefore, he gives you the bread of two days on the sixth day; abide ye every man in his place; let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 And the house of Israel called its name Manna; and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.
32 And Moses said, This is what the Lord has commanded, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your descendants, that they may see the bread with which I have fed you in the wilderness when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.
33 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot and put an omer full of manna in it and lay it up before the Lord, to be kept for your descendants.
34 As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
35 Thus the sons of Israel ate manna forty years until they came to a land inhabited; they ate manna until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 Now an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.
Exodus 17 (JUB)
1 And all the congregation of the sons of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the Lord, and set up camp in Rephidim; and there was no water for the people to drink.
2 And the people chided with Moses and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? Why do ye tempt the Lord?
3 So the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses and said, Why hast thou brought us up out of Egypt to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?
4 Then Moses cried unto the Lord, saying, What shall I do with this people? They are almost ready to stone me.
5 And the Lord said unto Moses, Go on before the people and take with thee of the elders of Israel and thy rod, with which thou didst smite the river take in thine hand and go.
6 Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb, and thou shalt smite the rock, and water shall come out of it that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7 And he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah because of the chiding of the sons of Israel and because they tempted the Lord, saying, Is the Lord among us, or not?
8 Then Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men and go out, fight with Amalek; tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.
10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; but when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12 And Moses’ hands were heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat upon it; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side and the other on the other side; thus his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13 And Joshua disabled Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14 And the Lord said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in the book and tell Joshua that I must utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
15 And Moses built an altar and called the name of it The Lord is my Banner, {YHWH-nissi}
16 for he said, Because Amalek lifted his hand against the throne of the Lord, the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.
