Exodus




This week's reading for Nan and Ethan is Exodus and we are discussing questions like "What is freedom?" "What is free will?" "How did Pharaoh's heart get hardened...did he harden it or did God harden it and what that means?" It is a lot to wrestle with but the kids are enjoying it I think.

An optional assignment for Exodus was to watch the "10 Commandments" (long, old epic version) and compare it to the biblical account. So we watched about 45 minutes last night and will watch a little more today. The boys didn't like the added romance between the future wife of Ramses and Moses. But they were still thoroughly entertained.

Yeah, I have to agree with "the boys" this time.
