Charles E. Irvin , M.B.A.,M.Div. The language is epic, the imagery apocalyptic, the action dramatic. There is ominous danger from a tyrannical and insanely jealous king, a king who even slaughters innocent babies. There are worldly rulers of great power, wisdom, and wealth. There is a great escape, a long journey back to the land of the pyramids, that land where the waters of the Great River push back the boundaries of the death-dealing desert in order that humans might live.
Light struggles against darkness.
Discovery follows wandering and searching. Truth vanquishes deception. Good prevails over evil. We are reminded that in the Book of Genesis God's first act of creation was to create light. There are those who say that light and life happened as the result of blind chance, as a result of some blind and chaotic development of an Evolutionary Force.
