It is a long chapter in the book of Exodus, but it is also the chapter in which, oh my gosh, there is so much foreshadowing of what the Lord God not only did for the people of Israel, but also what the Lord God has done for us and for the entire world. That's Exodus chapter 12, also Leviticus chapter 9 and Psalm 114. I am always, I'm reading from the Revised Standard Version, Catholic edition.

I'm kind of excited about today's reading. It's just a massive gift and it highlights, again, as I said, four shadows. So much. But in order to understand what the scripture foreshadows, we have to actually get into the scripture itself and what it didn't just foreshadow, but what it did, what it accomplished in the lives of the people of Israel, giving them freedom and giving them life.
