耶穌基督的救贖神學源自舊約中出埃及的事件與以色列民在埃及為奴的經驗，本文期望藉着舊約這個層面的詮釋，幫助我們更立體地理解救贖的神學主題。本文首先探討出埃及傳統有關拯救與身分之間的連結，集中處理出埃及記十二章37至51節與十九章4至6節有關出埃及事件與以色列民身分重塑的形成與建構，指出以色列民由埃及為奴轉為盟約子民的身分創造，並在其中分析如何讓「閒雜人」（出十二38）離開埃及或列國的民族主義，轉為屬神子民的身分建構，從而說明神的拯救與身分的建立帶有直接及不可分割的關係。

ABSTRACT

The theology of salvation stems from the Exodus event in the Old Testament. This article attempts to illustrate the theology of salvation within the theological framework of the Exodus event. It starts from an exploration of the relationship between the Exodus event and the issue of identity, examining the making of the Israelite identity through an interpretation of Exodus 12:37-51 and 19:4-6. This aims to investigate how Israelites gained their identity of covenantal people from slavery, and how the term “mixed crowd” (Exod 12:38) could provide a link to the departure from nationalism, and to the attachment to God’s people as their identity. As such, this article aims to prove that there is an indissoluble bond between the making of identity and God’s salvation event.
