“The Exodus from Egypt” was one of the people of Israel’s most direct experiences of the Lord as the rescuing God. Through this event, God not only identified the Israelites as His chosen people but also instituted the “Passover” (cf. Exo 12:14), which was to be commemorated by all generations. However, when Moses led the people of Israel on their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, the “Exodus” seemed to be quickly forgotten by them, and the Israelites continuously reminisced about what they had experienced in Egypt by rebelling, complaining, and testing the Lord. However, God not only provided everything they needed for their journey but also established another festival for them to be commemorated by all generations, which is the Feast of Tabernacles (cf. Lev. 23:41). Since then, the Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles have become two important annual festivals of the Israelite people. On the one hand, these two festivals have become historical memorials; on the other hand, they symbolize the relationship between God and His people in terms of saving and being saved, of choosing and being chosen, and thus the identity of the Israelite people. The purpose of this article is to reread this tortuous process of “remembering” and “forgetting,” “revolt” and “reconciliation,” and “trauma” and “healing” in order to explore how the Israelite people interpreted their “commemoration” of the two events and defined their identity.
