Exodus: Lateral Thinking

Discuss the following questions:

1. Some Christians today believe that the Exodus story shows God is on the side of the poor and oppresses. Does the Exodus story teach us this? In what sense?

2. In the discussion above, we looked at some other Bible stories that were like the story in Exodus. Can you find other "exodus narratives" in the Bible? Look at 1 Samuel 21-2 Samuel 6 and Matthew 1-7.
