There are some interesting parallels between the opening chapters of #genesis and the opening chapters of #exodus.

Adam and Eve in the Garden and Moses in Egypt:
1: God speaks to man.
2: Adam and Eve without clothes / Moses without shoes.
3: Satan as a serpent / Staff turned to a serpent.
4: Sacred trees.
5: Murders of Abel and the Egyptian.

Noah and Moses with their families:
1: A righteous remnant living amid the wicked.
2: A long wait between promise and fulfillment.
3: A righteous man saved through water in a vessel covered in pitch.
4: A covenant with God.
5: Family conflict in the wilderness.
