What is the significance of Moses' leadership in Exodus?

Moses serves as a type of Christ, acting as an under-shepherd for God’s people during their journey through the wilderness. His leadership demonstrates how Christ, through chosen servants, leads and provides for His church. Just as Moses was tasked with delivering messages from God to the Israelites, Christ ultimately fulfills this role as the perfect mediator whose guidance is supported by Scripture. His actions also show the necessity of heeding God's warnings and direction through His appointed leaders.
