Bible Question: Why didn't God take care of the circumcision issue before he sent Moses to Egypt? |
Bible Answer: Dear vblocal, Welcome to the forum. The Bible does not explain "why" (in terms of the timing) for this particular event. However, we are taught in the Bible that He has His own timing which is perfect, good and for His own glory. (John 12:27-28, John 17:1, Rom 8:28) Eccl 3:1 There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven-- Shalom Azure |
