Scripture Post #1,809: *430 YEARS, EXACTLY*

 

Exodus 12:

40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. 

41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be much observed unto the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.

The Israelites were in Egypt for 430 years to the day, before they were freed by the Hand of GOD. Powerful! This further emphasized GOD's ability and sovereignty!
