If you mean in terms of details about certain sections of Moses' life, then the period of Moses life which is covered most fully is the final forty years. These are certainly the most important and eventful years of his life. Only a few details of the first 80 are mentioned such as his birth, how he was saved from being killed under Pharaoh's edict, that he was raised in the royal household, that he committed murder and had to flee and that he went into animal husbandry work for a while and got married in this period.

From the time when God spoke to him via the burning bush, there is a lot more detail.

How old was Moses when he led the Egyptians?

The Bible says Moses lived to be 120 years old. It should be noted that back in that era, people calculated time differently and they did not have a 24 hour day or a year with twelve months. Thus, it is not certain what "120 years" meant, but based on descriptions of Moses in the Hebrew Bible, he seems to have in fact lived a long and full life and died of old age.


What are three things that you could read about moses in the Torah or the Old testament?

-- Moses was named by Pharaoh's daughter. -- Moses had a speech impediment. -- Moses lived the first 40 years of his life in Egypt, then left, and didn't return for another 40 years. -- Moses was unequalled for modesty and humility. -- Moses never felt that he was qualified for the job of leader, and asked several times to be let go. -- Moses never in his life ever set foot in the Promised Land. (All found in the Torah.)

Was Moses 83 years old when he saw the burning bush?

Moses' age when he saw the burning bush is not specifically mentioned in the Bible. However, traditionally it is said that Moses' life can be divided into three sections of forty years. He was forty years old when he fled from Egypt after killing an Egyptian taskmaster. He spent the next forty years in the wilderness working as a shepherd for his father-in-law Jethro, married two women and had two sons. At the end of these forty years Moses sees the burning bush so he would have been eighty years old at the time. He then receives a call from God to lead the Hebrew people out of Egypt and spends the last forty years of his life leading them in the desert. He dies at the age of 120 years and God buries him on the top of of the mountain.


Did Moses grow up with Ramases?

Rameses IIThe Egyptian pharaoh, Rameses II lived approximately 1290 to 1224 BCE.MosesThe only information we have on Moses is from the Bible, which provides two quite distinct ways of estimating when Moses would have lived, neither of which coincides with the life of Rameses II.According to the Bible, Moses was the grandson of Kohath, who was alive at the time of the migration from Canaan and lived 133 years, while his son Amran lived 137 years. At the extremes of biological possibility, and assuming the patriarchs really lived to improbably great ages, Moses was born sometime between 15 years and 270 years after the arrival in Egypt and, living to the age of 120 years, died between 135 and 390 years after the arrival. On these calculations, Moses was born between about 1850 and 1600 BCE, and died between about 1730 and 1480 BCE.According to the Bible, Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, around 1440 BCE, and died about 40 years later, having lived 120 years. On these calculations, Moses was born about 1520 BCE and died about 1400 BCE.ConclusionOn this evidence, Rameses II and Moses could not have grown up together, as Ramesis lived centuries after the time attributed to Moses. Moreover, over ninety per cent of scholars are reported as believing the Exodus did not really happen, thus casting doubt on the very existence of Moses.


Is The Bible long?

Yes. Two times in his life. After killing an Egyptian, he fled to the desert and lived for 40 years. Then he went back to Egypt and lead his people out of captivity and they lived another 40 years in the desert. He died at age 120.


How long was Moses in the desert?

Moses and the Israelites spent 40 years wandering in the wilderness, which comes to 14,600 days. Moses was an Israelite who was made a prince in the Egyptian palace, and later became a religious leader as well as a prophet.


How old would Moses be if he were still alive?

For this question it is best to look in the Hebrew Bible for any evidence of Moses' life. According to Genesis, Moses' grandfather, Kohath, was alive at the time of the migration of the Israelites to Egypt and lived 133 years, while Moses' father, Amran, lived 137 years. The Bible says that the Israelites spent 430 years in Egypt, and an analysis of the biblical genealogies suggests that Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt around 1440 BCE. That means that the journey to Egypt would have taken place about 1870 BCE. We do not know how old Kohath was when he went to Egypt, but if he and his son Amran were capable of fathering a child at any time between puberty and the year of their deaths, then Moses was born between about 1855-1600 BCE. Moses would therefore be about 3,600 to 3,855 years old if he were alive today.Or, if we work backwards from Moses' reported death in about 1400 BCE, at 120 years old, then Moses would be about 3535 years old if he were alive today.Another tradition supported by some Jews is that he lived even more recently and would be about 3400 years old if he were alive today.You see, the problem is that we have no reliable information on Moses, and have to rely on guesswork and assumptions.
