Exo 32:11-13 | MHM | STEP | v. 11-13 : Moses prays to God, asking Him to spare the Israelites ( v. 11-13 ). Moses reminds God that the Israelites are His people and that He brought them out of Egypt with great power. Moses also says that if God destroys them, the Egyptians will mock God and say He brought the people out just to kill them. Finally, Moses reminds God of His promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Israel to give their descendants the land of Canaan. Moses’s prayer is unselfish—he cares more about God’s honor and the people than about his own gain.
