EGYPT ON THE LINE

Egypt shows up again and again in the Bible, and it never means quite the same thing twice.
It's the land that fed Jacob's starving family during a famine. It's the land that later enslaved their descendants. It's the land God judged through Moses and the ten plagues, and - centuries after that - it's the land where an angel told a frightened young father to hide his newborn son from a king who wanted him dead.
Egypt on the Line traces that thread through Scripture, from Joseph's pit in Genesis to the empty tomb, and asks a question most readers have never stopped to consider: why Egypt? Why does this one nation keep reappearing at the hinge points of God's redemptive story - as refuge, as bondage, as judgment, and finally as the hiding place of the Messiah himself?
Along the way, this book explores what Egypt's story reveals about God's rule over nations and kings, His justice toward the oppressed, His mercy toward the unlikeliest people, and His patience with a world that rarely understands what He's doing until long after He's done it.
Written for anyone who wants to go deeper into the Old and New Testaments together, Egypt on the Line is a study in providence - the conviction that no place, no delay, and no danger has ever caught God by surprise.
