In the very moment Moses felt defeated by failure, God repeated His promises, refocused on Himself as the One who would deliver Israel, and then recounted Moses and Aaron’s family lineage. Why such an oddly placed family tree in this story of deliverance?
Moses & Aaron were descendants of Levi, son of Jacob (Israel). In recounting the generations of the line of promise, God reminds Moses that he and Aaron were born for this purpose. God had indeed called the right man for the job, and what felt like temporary failure would not thwart the ultimate plans of God.
