Which verse identifies the instruction related to 'Who is God's Son'?

• A. Exodus 4:22
• B. Isaiah 8:16
• C. John 10:22
• D. Nehemiah 10:31

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is recognizing who is identified as God’s son in the biblical text. In Exodus 4:22, God tells Moses to say to Pharaoh, “Israel is my firstborn son.” This statement explicitly designates the nation of Israel as God’s son, using the term son to describe a special, chosen relationship between God and the people of Israel. Understanding this helps you see why this verse is the right choice: it is the one that directly names Israel as God’s son, whereas the other listed verses address different topics—laws and testimony in Isaiah, a winter festival in John, and covenantal practices in Nehemiah—none of which identify a divine son in the same way. (If you’re thinking about the broader usage, remember that while Jesus is called the Son of God in the New Testament, this particular verse uses the nation of Israel itself as God’s son.)
