Title: Remembering God

Main passage:

Exodus 13:1-2 NKJV

1. Why the first born?

 Answer: Reminder of what God did to bring them out of Egypt. -Exodus 13:11-16

Sanctify - to set apart. 

You could redeem or by back the first born from service in the temple 

Numbers 18:15 - redeem meaning buy back. 

2. What does it mean to have a sign on your hand and frontlets of the eyes? 

Exodus 13:16

Hebrew word means band.

The tefillin had four scriptures.

Exodus 13:1–10 - (Kadesh) - to be set apart. 

Exodus 13:11–16 (VeHaya Ki Yeviacha) - passing down these scriptures to future generations. 

Deuteronomy 6:4–9 (the Shema) - Loving God with all your heart, your soul, your mind, and your strength.

Deuteronomy 11:13–21 - (VeHayah Im Shamoa) - consequences of keeping or breaking God’s commandments. 

Note: Many theologians believe that Exodus 13:16 is figurative language meaning to keep these things as a high priority and do them.
