They passed through the Red Sea and then travelled through the wilderness of Sinai into the promised land, where they were fully established as God's Kingdom. Their crossing of the Red Sea is typical of our baptism (1 Cor. 10:1,2); the wilderness journey of our present life, and Canaan of the Kingdom of God. Jude v. 5 describes how many of them were destroyed during the wilderness journey: "The Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not". Israel were therefore "saved" from Egypt, as all those who are baptized are "saved" from sin.
Walipita bahari ya shamu na kisha walisafiri katika jangwa la Sinai kuelekea nchi ya ahadi, mahali ambapo walisimikwa kabisa kuwa Ufalme wa Mungu. Kuvuka kwao bahari ya shamu ni mfano wa kubatizwa kwetu (1Kor 10:1,2); Safari ya Jangwani ni maisha yetu yaliyopo, na Kanaani ni kuingia Ufalme wa Mungu. Yuda mstari wa 5 unaelezea ni wangapi kati yao waliangamia wakati wa kusafiri jangwani: "Bwana, akiisha kuwaokoa watu katika nchi ya Misri, aliwaangamiza baadaye wale wasioamini" Basi Israel "aliokolewa" toka Misri, kama hao wote ambao wanaobatizwa leo"wameokolewa" katika dhambi.
