Exodus 7:16 The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to say to you, “Let my people go!”

This came to be the most famous line of Moses, as he confronted the Pharaoh of Egypt over and over, and said over and over, “Let my people go.” After great suffering the Pharaoh relented, only to change his mind and chase them to the banks of the Red Sea. God delivered the people that day, and set them on the long journey forward to the promised land. It was their exit, or “Exodus.”
