We have officially begun our study on Exodus! Dennis examines the biblical account of the midwives who refused to follow Pharaoh’s orders to kill newborn Hebrew boys, and how their bravery in the face of oppression serves as a powerful example of moral heroism. He also discusses the concept of blood-based values and how they can lead to the dehumanization of entire groups, citing the example of the Holocaust and the Nazi regime’s ideology of racial purity.

Throughout the episode, Dennis draws parallels between the biblical story and modern-day issues, including the treatment of minority groups and the dangers of nationalism. He also highlights the importance of moral courage and the need to stand up against evil, even in the face of overwhelming opposition.
