The first five books of the Bible—known as the Books of Moses or the Pentateuch—are the revelation of the character of God and His holiness and the story of how He delivered and established His people in the earth. The Exodus story and the surrounding events are a foreshadowing of Christ’s redemptive work on the cross. These books should cause us to rejoice in God’s provision of His inspired, authoritative Word and inspire us to a deeper hunger for the things of God.
