YouTube description

Alastair Roberts unpacks his book Echoes of Exodus (2018) revealing how Scripture is best read musically. Alastair and Derek trace the Exodus motif as it reverberates throughout the Bible. Other topics include mountain symbolism, the role of women in exodus, the 7 days of creation, and deciding where we are today in the grand exodus story.
