Jesus' own death, burial, and resurrection set the stage for the entire New Exodus. He died to the world below, He overcame hades, and then He became the first to rise into the heavenly places. It is through Him and in Him that Israel would escape the bondage and corruption that was in the world and enter into the promised land: the kingdom of Heaven. 

We too are able to enjoy the riches of God's grace through seeking refuge in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
