WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[10] Moses said to Yahweh, "Oh, Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before now, nor since you have spoken to your servant; for I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue." [11] Yahweh said to him, "Who made man's mouth? Or who makes one mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Isn't it I, Yahweh? [12] Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak."

Egypt was the land where Israel was enslaved and where Moses was being sent to confront Pharaoh; the Nile, Egypt’s great river, had figured in God’s earlier signs to Moses. Midian, east of Egypt across the Sinai region, was Moses’ place of exile and the setting from which God called him despite his claimed inability to speak.
