“The patriarchs became jealous of Joseph and sold him into Egypt, but God was with him

But the Lord told him, “Listen to the people and everything they say to you. They have not rejected you; they have rejected Me as their king.

But some wicked men said, “How can this guy save us?” They despised him and did not bring him a gift, but Saul said nothing.

“But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to rule over us!’

They shouted back, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a revolutionary.

But they shouted, “Take Him away! Take Him away! Crucify Him!”

for God is the Judge:
He brings down one and exalts another.

He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the garbage pile

The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.

A ruler

“Therefore let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah!”

Moses said:

The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from among your brothers. You must listen to Him in everything He will say to you.

“When Jacob went to Egypt, your ancestors cried out to the Lord, and He sent them Moses and Aaron, who led your ancestors out of Egypt and settled them in this place.

You performed signs and wonders against Pharaoh,
all his officials, and all the people of his land,
for You knew how arrogantly they treated our ancestors.
You made a name for Yourself
that endures to this day.

You led Your people like a flock
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Then He remembered the days of the past,
the days of Moses and his people.
Where is He who brought them out of the sea
with the shepherds of His flock?
Where is He who put His Holy Spirit among the flock?

They sang the song of God’s servant Moses and the song of the Lamb:

Great and awe-inspiring are Your works,
Lord God, the Almighty;
righteous and true are Your ways,
King of the Nations.

After 40 years had passed, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in the flame of a burning bush.

Then the Angel of God, who was going in front of the Israelite forces, moved and went behind them. The pillar of cloud moved from in front of them and stood behind them.

“I am going to send an angel before you to protect you on the way and bring you to the place I have prepared.

Now go, lead the people to the place I told you about; see, My angel will go before you. But on the day I settle accounts, I will hold them accountable for their sin.”

I will send an angel ahead of you and will drive out the Canaanites, Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites.

When we cried out to the Lord, He heard our voice, sent an angel,

and brought us out of Egypt. Now look, we are in Kadesh, a city on the border of your territory.

In all their suffering, He suffered,

and the Angel of His Presence saved them.
He redeemed them
because of His love and compassion;
He lifted them up and carried them
all the days of the past.

He is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn over all creation.

For if the message spoken through angels was legally binding

and every transgression and disobedience received a just punishment,
