#### What is the Book of Exodus about? ####
Exodus continues the story of the previous book, Genesis. The first half of Exodus is about how Yahweh made Abraham's descendants into a nation. This nation, which would be called "Israel," was meant to belong to Yahweh and worship him. The second half of Exodus describes how God gave the Israelites his law through Moses. The law of Moses told the Israelites how to obey and worship Yahweh properly.
The Book of Exodus also includes instructions about how the Israelites were to build the tabernacle. The tabernacle was a tent where Yahweh's presence would dwell. The Israelites worshiped and sacrificed animals to Yahweh at the tabernacle. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/lawofmoses]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/tabernacle]])

#### Why did Moses write so much about God delivering or rescuing the people of Israel? ####
Moses wrote a lot about God rescuing his people from the Egyptians to show that Yahweh is very powerful. Egypt was the most powerful nation at that time. And Yahweh was still able to free the Israelites from the Egyptians. Also, by rescuing the Israelites, Yahweh showed that he had chosen them as his people and they should worship him.

#### How does the Book of Exodus show the fulfillment of the promises given to Abraham? ####
The Book of Exodus shows God beginning to fulfill his promise that Abraham. In Genesis, God promised Abraham that he would have many descendants and that they would form a large nation. When God rescued the Israelites from the Egyptians, he took them to Mount Sinai. There he made a covenant with them, and they became the nation that belonged to Yahweh.
