How did Moses and Abraham shape the history of the Hebrew people?

Answer 1Abraham shaped the Hebrew history by being told by God himself, or believed that He did tell him, to leave his own home, and settle into Canaan where his descendants-the Hebrews-- finally settled also, but later, some of the Hebrews moved to Egypt, (they moved to other parts of the world later). However, with the growth of the Hebrews, the pharaoh of Egypt, was worried the Hebrews soon might take over, and to stop that from happening, he made the Hebrews slaves. A man named Moses appeared among the Hebrews in Egypt. God told Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses then went to the pharaoh and demanded that the Hebrews should be free. The pharaoh refused. Soon afterward a series of plagues (disasters) struck Egypt and the pharaoh then agreed to let the Hebrews free.Christian answer:They both spread the word about God and Jesus.Jewish answer:Abraham founded Judaism.Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt and received the Torah from God.

When did the Jews take the Hebrew religions and mak it their own?

The Jewish people did not really "borrow" religious ideas from Hebrews, rather, they are the Hebrews. In Genesis 15, God brings Abraham (father of the Hebrew/Jewish people) out of a place called Ur of the Chaldeans which is, essentially, Babylon. God changes Abraham's name from "Abram" and later Abraham forms a people from his descendants which are referred to as the "Jews" or "Hebrews." As the pentateuch (first five books of Hebrew scripture) explains, the God who revealed Himself to Abraham gave him the priniple tenets of the Hebrew/Jewish religion (Judaism). The reason that sometimes the word "Hebrew" is used and sometimes the word "Jew" is used is that the word "Hebrew comes from an ancient word in Aramaic which is "ebhrai". In the Jewish langauge it is "ibhri." This word is what English speakers now call "Isrealite." The word "Jew" is a modern form of the ancient name "Judah" which was the name of one of the tribes of Israel. So, in answer, the Jews didn't show up to "take away" the Hebrew religions, but they are the descendants of the ancient Hebrews. The only exception to this would be calling people who practice the Jewish religion "Jews" even though the aren't really descendants of the Jewish people.
