This Lenten devotional explores the biblical motif of "forty" through the stories of Noah, Moses, the exodus, Elijah, and Jonah. All of these narratives foreshadow the gospel—they are reminders of Easter morning in light of the "forties" that have come before.
In Jesus we find the answer to Noah's rainbow, the living Word of Moses, the true deliverance for God's people from their desert wanderings, the voice of God walking the earth, and salvation for all people of every nation.
