Verite, I think you said to give you a heads up if there are long chapters...or maybe I read that wrong or you were joking 
Only if you remembered it ahead of time😀
Ch.11, 10 verses
God says He will send one more plague.
God causes the Egyptians to be very favorable to the children of Israel and and they gave them jewels of silver and gold. And Moses was revered.
The final plague was that all the firstborn in Egypt would die, from Pharaoh's firstborn to the servant's firstborn, and even the firstborn of the beasts.
God continued to harden Pharaoh's heart so that God's wonders would be multiplied.

Ch.12, 51 verses
God said that that month would now be the first month of the year to them.
Added this to my notes, thanks😀
On the 10th day of this month, they were to sacrifice a lamb and put the blood on the door posts. They were to eat the roasted meat that night. Only unleavened bread was allowed (no yeasty bread). Bitter herbs were also to be a part of the meal. If any meat remained in the morning, it was to be burned. They were to be fully clothed as if they were going to leave at any moment. This is the Passover.
All those who have the blood on the door posts, the Lord will passover and they will not die. They were not to leave out the door until morning.
The Lord describes how they are to observe the Feast of the Unleavened Bread. Unleavened bread was symbolic. "Unleavened bread represented the promised Savior—the “bread from heaven.” Since the Bible sometimes uses leaven as a symbol of sin, the unleavened bread was a symbol of the sinless Messiah."
When the Lord smote the firstborn of Egypt that night, there was a great cry in the land and there was not one household that didn't have at least one dead.
Pharaoh sent them away in the night and the Egyptians were anxious for them to leave.
A great number left Egypt. 600,000 men. So, no doubt well over a million people left. Some estimate that after you add in an estimate of women and children the amount of people leaving was around 2.5 million. Then you have all the livestock and all their belongings. The exodus from Egypt would no doubt have been quite a sight to have seen!
Absolutely!
Verite, you are not keen on goat...how about lamb? I personally like a good lamb burger once in a while.
It's my fav🥩😊
Ch. 13, 22 verses
Abib is the first month in the Hebrew calendar.
I have to research this when I have more time. There are different variations of the Hebrew calendar when you do an image search; some are still using January to December
The Lord promises to bring them into the land that He had promised to their fathers.
The Lord again instructs them on how to observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread, as it is a sign and a memorial.
The Lord leads the people. He leads them with a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night.
Moses takes the bones of Joseph with them!
😀
Ch. 14, 31 verses
The Pharaoh's heart is hardened. Again. He gets himself ready and takes every chariot in Egypt and all the captains and all his army. Oh, the fool.
As the Egyptians draw near, the children of Israel are afraid and they cried out to the Lord.
The children of Israel get whiny. "Why didn't you leave us in Egypt? Why did you bring us out here to die?"
-But, verse 13 and 14 are touching.-
Moses stretched forth his hand over the waters and the Lord caused a strong wind all night. And the water was divided and there was dry land. And the people traveled on the dry land with a wall of water on either side of them. Must have been an exhilarating feeling.
The Lord told Moses to stretch his hands over the water, and the Lord brought the water together and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the sea.
The people saw all of this and feared the Lord.

Ch.15, 27 verses
The song of Moses and Israel vs. 1-21
They left the Red Sea and went into the wilderness, after 3 days they found no water. The came to Marah, but the waters were bitter there. The people grumbled. Moses cries out to the Lord, the Lord directs him to a tree, Moses throws the tree into the water, and the waters become drinkable.
The Lord tells the people to listen to Him carefully and to do what is right and to follow His commandments, and in doing so they will be well.
The people came to Elim where they camped by the waters.
✅
Ch. 16, 36 verses
They leave Elim and go to Sin on the 15th of the month of Ziv.
The people murmur against Moses and Aaron. Here we go again!
Moses tells them that their murmurs are not against him and Aaron, but against the Lord!
The Lord gave them flesh in the evening and manna in the morning.
I like verse 18. Those that gathered more than they should had, had nothing leftover. Those that gathered little had no lack!
Interesting, I have to review this again, thanks😀
The people are told not to leave any until the morning. Did they listen. Of course not! As a result, it bred worms and stank.
The only day they were allowed to gather more and leave it till morning was the 6th day, for the following day was the Sabbath.
The Lord commanded that a tenth part of an ephah of manna be put in a jar to keep as a memorial. The children of Israel ate manna for 40 years.
Ch.17, 16 verses
They travel to Rephidim where there is no water. So, what do they do? They murmur again, of course!
Moses cries out to the Lord. The Lord tells him to smite the rock in Horeb, and water flowed out. Then Moses calls the place Massah and Meribah, meaning testing and quarreling.
The Amalekites fight the children of Israel. The Amalekites descended from Esau. Amalek is a son of Esau's first-born son Eliphaz and of the concubine Timna.
I had a feeling Amalek was mentioned before but didn't go back and check. Thanks for this note!
As long as Moses held up his hand, the Israelites prevailed. When he let his hand down, the Amakekites prevailed. So, Aaron and Hur had him set down and they held up his hands.
This shows us that should let others help us. I think it is what the Lord wants, for us to help each other. I am terrible at this. I have a hard time asking for help or letting others help. I try to remember that sometimes the Lord's help comes through others.
Great observation! Just like Jethro (Reuel) said that Moses cannot Judge all of Israel by himself😀
Joshua weakened Amalek and the Lord promised to wipe out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
Ch. 18, 27 verses
Jethro, Moses FIL, arrives with Moses' wife and offspring.
Jethro and Moses visit. Jethro rejoices after hearing all that the Lord had done.
Jethro watches Moses judging the people. Jethro advises Moses to choose able bodied men to be rulers over thousands, hundreds, 50s, and tens. These men judged the people, but the difficult cases were brought to Moses.
Then Jethro departed back to his own land.

Ch.19, 25 verses
In the month of Sivan, they came into the wilderness of Sinai.
I looked up the month of Sivan. It is the month of May-June on the Hebrew calendar.
Moses went up to the Lord. The Lord said, "If ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine."
Moses came down and told the elders of the people what the Lord had commanded. The people said that they would do all that the Lord had spoken. Moses passes the message on to the Lord. The Lord says he's going to come in a thick cloud so that the people may hear His voice. Moses passes this message to the people. Moses sanctifies the people. Gods warns that the people are not allowed to go up the mountain, nor are they allowed to even touch the border of it. Nor animals either.
The Lord descends on mount Sinai. Smoke ascends and the mountain quakes greatly. The Lord calls Moses up and he goes up. Then He sends him back down to speak to the people.
Ch. 20, 26 verses
