Exodus and Matthew
The story begins with a child being born, by grace escaping the wrath of a king, raised and adopted by one that he was not biologically related to, and then the story continues by skipping to his adulthood.
Who is the story about? It is about both Jesus and Moses. Matthew records the story of Jesus, and the Jews are to see the story of Moses being relived.
