Arrow Class Exodus 4:24-26

Moses and his family left their home and were on their way to Egypt. They stopped on the way to sleep and the Lord was about to kill Moses! Oh my! His wife Zipporah knew that not circumcising her son before was a bad choice, so she quickly did it and the Lord let them go. Today let’s read Exodus 4:24-26 and Genesis 17:11-14 and remind our Tiny Arrows how important circumcision was to the Lord! It represented His promise to His chosen people!

At a lodging place on the way, the Lord met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. “Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,” she said. So the Lord let him alone. (At that time she said “bridegroom of blood,” referring to circumcision.)
Exodus 4:24-26

“You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and you. For the generations to come every male among you who is eight days old must be circumcised, including those born in your household or bought with money from a foreigner—those who are not your offspring. Whether born in your household or bought with your money, they must be circumcised. My covenant in your flesh is to be an everlasting covenant. Any uncircumcised male, who has not been circumcised in the flesh, will be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant.”
Genesis 17:11-14
