As God delivered Israel from Egyptian bondage, God was about to bring an even greater deliverance for humanity from the bondage of sin, the judgment of death, and the wrath and eternal punishment of hell. What was celebrated with the birth of the firstborn male in every family was the delivering power of God from Egyptian slavery. Mary and Joseph were beginning to see that they were holding someone greater than Moses in their arms- Moses as Israel’s deliverer. Jesus is humanity’s Savior!
