首先再让我大概介绍一下故事，以及在《出埃及记》开篇中的一些主题，开始的六七章。

So let me first say a little bit about the story line, and some of the themes at the beginning of Exodus, the first six or seven chapters.

我们有开场白，签订契约的历史大环境，就像《出埃及记》20中上帝总结性的介绍：，“我是将你们从为奴之地领出来的耶和华。”

We have the preamble, and the historical background to the covenant in God's summary introduction to the people in Exodus 20: "I am Yahweh who brought you out of the land of Egypt."

So the exodus is a paradigm for salvation, but it would be a mistake, I think, to view the Exodus as the climax of the preceding narrative.

出埃及是救赎的范本，但我认为，这也许是个错误，把《出埃及记》当做前面叙述的高潮。
