Blog_ 2025-04-11 = Hidden in a Basket – How Moses’ Story Tells the Gospel =

When we read the story of baby Moses being placed in a basket and floated down the river, it sounds like a rescue mission—and it is. But if we look more closely, it’s not just about Moses. It’s actually telling the story of Jesus.

Pharaoh had just given a terrible order: every baby boy born to the Israelites was to be thrown into the river. It was a death sentence. But when Moses was born, his mother saw he was special. She hid him, and then did something strange—she made a little basket, put him inside, and placed him in the river herself.

That might sound like a clever escape plan, but in the language of the Bible, water often represents judgment or death. And the basket? It’s a kind of ark—a place where someone goes through death safely, like Noah did. When Moses was placed in the river, it was like he was being buried. And when Pharaoh’s daughter drew him out, it was like a resurrection. She even gave him a name that means “drawn out.”

That’s the same pattern we see in Jesus.

He was loved by His followers, but rejected by the leaders of the day. His own people delivered Him to death. And after He died, He rose—drawn out of death. Then something unexpected happened: the people who didn’t even understand who He really was received Him. They took Him in. And just like Moses lived in Pharaoh’s house, Jesus now lives in us—His people, His bride—even though we’re still learning who He is.

So the story of Moses isn’t just a heroic baby story. It’s the gospel in disguise. It shows us a pattern we’ll see again and again: suffering, death, and new life. And the one who went through it now lives in us.

> "Drawn out" isn’t just Moses’ name. It’s the story of Jesus—and ours too.
