Exodus 1: Fruitful&Multiplied in Egypt by ? the Word - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Dan Torkelson, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church in North Prairie, Wisconsin, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Exodus 1.

“The people of Israel were fruitful and increased greatly.” Exodus 1 flows seamlessly out of Genesis while also foreshadowing the confrontation with Pharaoh. Israel fulfills God’s commandment to “be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth” even while serving the King of Egypt. Yet Pharaoh prefers “wisdom” over life, which will lead to disaster as in Genesis 3. But the midwives, even before Moses and the Apostles, boldly obey God rather than men. God’s blessing and promise could not be stopped, even as Christ the Word cannot be stopped.
