Mo′ses , who's name means "Drawn Out" or " saved out of water" was born in 1593 B.C.E., in Egypt. A son of Hebrew slaves. His father was Amram, the grandson of Kohath, and the great-grandson of Levi. He was three years younger than his brother Aaron. Miriam their sister was some years older. (Exodus 6:16, 18, 20; 2:7).
Though his childhood is familiar to many, beginning by being 'adopted' into the household of the Pharaoh of Egypt, eventually becoming the second most powerful man in Egypt, he turned his back on this life of privilage. He grew to be a 'Man of the true God', refusing to be "called the son of the daughter of Pharaoh, but choosing to be ill-treated with the people of God rather than to have the temporary enjoyment of sin." (Hebrews 11:24&25) He grew up to be known as a:
*A leader of the nation of Israel, being privileged to institute the Passover. (Exodus 12:1-16)
*Mediator of the Law covenant, Three months after the Exodus from Egypt, God gave Moses the two stone tablets "written on by God's finger," containing "the Ten Commandments, the basic laws of the Law covenant. (Exodus 31:18; Deuteronomy 4:13)
* Writer. (Ezra 3:2) Moses was the writer of the Pentateuch, the first five books of The Bible, namely, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. His writings are part of Jewish history, this section of the Bible being known by them as the Torah, or Law. Jesus and the Christian writers frequently speak of Moses as giving the Law.
Also a *prophet, *judge, *commander, and *historian.
It was God's purpose to deliver the Hebrews out of Egypt, by the hand of Moses, but Moses needed to undergo another 40 years of training to qualify. The qualities of patience, meekness, humility, long-suffering, mildness of temper, self-control, and learning to wait on God, needed to be developed in him to a higher degree, in order for him to be the fitting one to lead God's people. The lowly occupation of shepherding in Midian served to develop these qualities.
Moses was 120 years of age at the time of his death. (Deuteronomy 34:5-7)
