Exodus 13:17 in Context — Exodus 13
15 E endurecendo-se Faraó em não nos deixar ir, o SENHOR matou na terra do Egito a todo primogênito, desde o primogênito homem até o primogênito do animal; e por esta causa eu sacrifico ao SENHOR todo primogênito macho, e resgato todo primogênito de meus filhos.
16 Será para ti, pois, como um sinal sobre tua mão, e por uma memória diante de teus olhos; já que o SENHOR tirou do Egito com mão forte.
17 E logo que Faraó deixou ir ao povo, Deus não os levou pelo caminho da terra dos filisteus, que estava próxima; porque disse Deus: Que talvez não se arrependa o povo quando virem a guerra, e se voltem ao Egito:
18 Mas fez Deus ao povo que rodeasse pelo caminho do deserto do mar Vermelho. E subiram os filhos de Israel do Egito armados.
19 Tomou também consigo Moisés os ossos de José, o qual havia juramentado aos filhos de Israel, dizendo: Deus certamente vos visitará, e fareis subir meus ossos daqui convosco.
