Freedom

Now the plagues and the Passover are a battle for freedom, and they are also a revelation. They are essentially revealing the identity of Yahweh, revealing who God is and what God is about. 
Consider the courage. I think courage is really important. The courage of the Israelites is really significant. Consider the courage that had to be mustered to leave these gods of security. 
The Israelites had the courage to venture out into the wilderness in an uncertain adventure where the priority really becomes a deeper and better relationship with God and a deeper and better relationship with one another. 
God led the people directly to Mount Sinai to forge a new covenant with them and to show them how to stay free.  We are set free to serve.  That's how we stay free. We serve, we are set free to serve.
