A New Exodus Story (Rom 5:12-20)

Curtis BakerBy: Curtis Baker

Most great cultures in the history of civilization have a story that serves as their foundation.  These stories help shape a shared sense of identity, and root in history (even if in a  somewhat legendary way) the events that gave rise to a particular people.  For the Greeks it was Homer’s “Iliad and Odyssey.”  For the Romans it was Virgil’s “Aeneid.”  For the United States it is the Revolutionary War.  But among all those foundational stories, there is an even older story that pre-dates these great civilizations.  It may not be the oldest story ever told, but it is ancient and it gave a sense of identity and purpose to one of history’s most storied people–the Israelites.   The story I am referring to, of course, is the story of the Exodus.
