This week’s crossword puzzle threw me for a loop with a particularly tricky clue: “Major figure in the Book of Exodus.” A classic example of a clue that’s both straightforward and deceptively complex. You know it’s a biblical figure, but the “major figure” part leaves you with a vast pool of possibilities!

Think Moses, right? But it’s too easy for a crossword, isn’t it? And then the wheels start turning: Aaron? Pharaoh? Miriam? The possibilities seem endless, and the frustration mounts!

Let’s break down this clue and uncover the hidden details that will lead us to the correct answer. First, we need to consider the context of the Book of Exodus. This isn’t just any biblical story, it’s the tale of the Israelites’ liberation from slavery in Egypt. The emphasis here is on

liberation

, on defying oppression, on achieving freedom.

Keeping this in mind, we need to narrow down our suspects. Who, among the major figures in Exodus, played a pivotal role in this journey of liberation?

Consider the narrative: who orchestrated the events that led to the Israelites’ escape? Who led them through the wilderness, facing challenges and triumphs alike? Who communicated with God, receiving divine instructions and guidance?

With these questions in mind, the puzzle begins to fall into place. This clue is more about understanding the heart of the narrative than simply knowing the names of the characters.

It’s time to dig deeper into the text, revisit the key moments of the story, and identify the figure who truly embodies the spirit of liberation and the will to defy the odds. The answer, my friends, is waiting to be revealed!
