    "en": "An English translation of the seven Exodus chapters the Raëlian canon engages in *The Truth* (Genesis-Exodus exegetical sequence) and *The Book Which Tells the Truth*: **Exodus 3** (the burning bush + the *ehyeh asher ehyeh* divine-name revelation); **Exodus 13** (the consecration of the firstborn + the pillar of cloud and fire); **Exodus 14** (the parting of the sea); **Exodus 16** (the manna and the quail); **Exodus 17** (the water from the rock at Massah-Meribah + the battle with Amalek); **Exodus 19** (the Sinai theophany — the descent of YHWH on the mountain in fire, smoke, and trumpet-blast); **Exodus 20** (the Decalogue + the altar law).\n\nSource: Sefaria v3 API Tanach with Ta'amei Hamikra (Westminster Leningrad Codex base, Public Domain). Same source-acquisition pattern as the Genesis precedent in this project.\n\nThis is the second-most-canonically-engaged Hebrew Bible book in the Raëlian corpus after Genesis. The chapter selection reflects the canon's specific chapter-and-verse citations: Ex 3 (the burning bush and the divine-name revelation in *The Truth*); Ex 13-14 (the Passover-and-parting-of-the-sea narrative — the canon's reading of the parting as 'a physical demonstration' of Elohim technology; *Extraterrestrials Took Me To Their Planet*); Ex 16-17 (the manna and water-from-rock — read as 'engineered nutrition technology' in the canon's framework); Ex 19-20 (the Sinai theophany — the canon's most-explicit 'Elohim-craft descent on the mountain' citation, with the Decalogue read as 'the engineered laws given to humanity').\n\nThe WoH-Translation produces the philologically-disciplined version of these passages, with explicit operational disavowals against the Sitchin/Anunnaki-engineered-craft reading of Ex 14 + Ex 19, Christian-typology pre-resolution (no Red-Sea-as-baptism, no manna-as-eucharist, no Sinai-as-old-covenant-superseded), and the Raëlian-canon's pre-filtered readings — acknowledgment-without-endorsement, per the Shi'ur Qomah *parasangs* and Qur'an *inshiqāq al-qamar* precedents."
