And We Know

Contributed by Perry Greene on May 24, 2021

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 26, 2021

The focus of the chapter turns from trials to temptation. A temptation is an opportunity to accomplish a good thing in a wrong way, out of the will of God. Is it wrong to want to pass an algebra exam? Of course not, but if you must cheat to pass it, then you have sinned.

Moses stretched forth his rod. In the last set of three plagues, the earthly agent was Moses (Exodus 9:10; Exodus 10:13, 22), whose timidity seems to have worn off as time went on, and he became accustomed to putting himself forward.
