Episodes
In this episode we explore the spectacular events that surrounded Israel’s release from Egypt as recorded in the Book of Exodus, including the original declaration of the Mosaic covenant. This Covenant, including the Ten Commandments, was initially given at Mt. Sinai as described in Exodus 20.
In this episode we look at an ethnic group who are originally from the Greek Islands - The Philistines. We will be examining the battles between the Israelis and the Philistines, particularly the battle of David and Goliath and ask the question ‘Where are the Philistines today?’
In this episode we will explore the Covenant God made with King David, the promise of an everlasting dynasty realised in the Messiah.

As with former periods of exile from he Land, this dispersion had as its ultimate purpose the restoration of the people to the land and to their relationship with the Lord.
