Moses’ Questions and Concerns | Yahweh’s Responses and Signs |
Who am I that I should go? (3:11). | I will be with you; when you come out of Egypt, you will serve me on this mountain (3:12). |
What is your name, that I may tell the people who sent me? (3:13). | I AM WHO I AM: Yahweh, the God of your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (3:14–15). |
How would the people believe that you have sent me? (4:1). | Yahweh turns Moses’ rod into a serpent then back into a rod (4:2–4); Yahweh makes Moses’ hand leprous and then heals it (4:6–7); Yahweh instructs Moses to turn water from the Nile into blood (4:9). |
I am not eloquent; I am slow of speech (4:10). | I, Yahweh, am the one who made your mouth (4:11). |
Please send someone else (4:13). | Aaron will go with you; you will speak my words to him and he will speak to the people for you (4:15–16). |
