What scripture in the bible do you find moses's wife's name?
Moses' wife was Zipporah. (Exodus 18:2-4) 2 So Jeth′ro, Moses' father-in-law, took Zip·po′rah, Moses' wife, after the sending of her away, 3 and her two sons, the name of one of whom was Ger′shom, "because," he said, "an alien resident I have come to be in a foreign land"; 4 and the name of the other was E·li·e′zer, "because," to quote him, "the God of my father is my helper in that he delivered me from Phar′aoh's sword."
Why did God spare Moses' life?
The exact meaning of the passage below is unclear as the term 'met' could also mean 'seized' him (see verse 27 for same word used). One thought of some biblical scholars is this has to do with Zipporah's Midianite custom of reserving circumcision until right before the the male's marriage. If this is the case, Moses may have let his 1st born son uncircumcised to please his wife's family custom - but this violated God's Command.Reluctantly, Zipporah circumcised the boy and God let Moses go in verse 26.Exodus 4:24-28New King James Version (NKJV) 24 And it came to pass on the way, at the encampment, that the Lord met him and sought to kill him. 25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son and cast it at Moses' feet, and said, "Surely you are a husband of blood to me!" 26 So He let him go. Then she said, "You are a husband of blood!"-because of the circumcision.27 And the Lord said to Aaron, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moses." So he went and met him on the mountain of God, and kissed him. 28 So Moses told Aaron all the words of the Lord who had sent him, and all the signs which He had commanded him.
What does Exodus Chapter 4 verse 24 mean?
FIRST AN INTRO: The Lord's concern for His chosen people can be seen in the call of Moses. So great was Moses that forever after the Lord and His people have used him as a standard, or model, of a prophet. Even Jesus Christ was called a prophet like unto Moses (see Acts 3:22 ; 7:37 ; Deuteronomy 18:15, 18-19 ; 1 Nephi 22:20-21 ; 3 Nephi 20:23-24 ). Indeed, Moses was a similitude or living symbol of Jesus Christ (see Moses 1:6 ). Moses was a man who, like us, possessed both weaknesses and strengths. The key to Moses' character is his meekness, the capacity to be molded by the Lord and His Spirit. "Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth" ( Numbers 12:3 ). In this chapter you will learn of Moses' foreordination, his youthful preparation, the patient tempering of his character in the desert, his call from God, and his assumption of prophetic leadership. Perhaps it will encourage you to analyze your life so that, like Moses, you can identify your weaknesses, purge yourself of them, and take up the assignment the Lord has for you in this life. Like Nephi, you may be led to say "let us be strong like unto Moses" ( 1 Nephi 4:2 ). Elder Mark E. Petersen testified: "The true Moses was one of the mightiest men of God in all time. . . . "He walked and talked with God, received of divine glory while yet in mortality, was called a son of God, and was in the similitude of the Only Begotten. "He saw the mysteries of the heavens and much of creation, and received laws from God beyond any other ancient man of whom we have record." ( Moses, p. 49.) THE MEANING: The King James Version lacks detail in this account. The Joseph Smith Translation indicates that the Lord was angry with Moses for failing to circumcise his son. It appears that Zipporah had not wanted to circumcise Gershom but relented when the Lord expressed His anger to Moses. "And it came to pass, that the Lord appeared unto him as he was in the way, by the inn. The Lord was angry with Moses, and his hand was about to fall upon him, to kill him; for he had not circumcised his son. "Then Zipporah took a sharp stone and circumcised her son, and cast the stone at his feet, and said, Surely thou art a bloody husband unto me. "And the Lord spared Moses and let him go, because Zipporah, his wife, circumcised the child. And she said, Thou art a bloody husband. And Moses was ashamed, and hid his face from the Lord, and said, I have sinned before the Lord. "And the Lord said unto Aaron, go into the wilderness to meet Moses, and he went and met him, in the mount of God; in the mount where God appeared unto him; and Aaron kissed him." ( JST, Exodus 4:24-27 .)
What major sin did Moses commit?
None. He committed the minor sin of misinterpreting God's command to speak to the rock (Numbers ch.20). This is spoken of as a more-than-minor sin (Numbers ch.20 and 27, Deuteronomy 32) only in light of Moses' greatness, which made God expect more of him. Other minor infractions, such as delaying the circumcision of his son (Rashi commentary, Exodus ch.4) or expressing anger (Numbers ch.32 and other passages) are not held against him, since in each case he was aware of the problem and had weighed it in light of what seemed best in God's eyes.In retrospect, Moses was the greatest of prophets (Numbers ch.12, Deuteronomy ch.34).Another View:Moses was a man, therefore not perfect. He was to circumcise his son but did not which angered God to the point of looking to kill him:Exodus 4:24-26New King James Version (NKJV) 24 And it came to pass on the way, at the encampment, that the Lord met him and sought to kill him. 25 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son and cast it at Moses' feet, and said, "Surely you are a husband of blood to me!" 26 So He let him go. Then she said, "You are a husband of blood!"-because of the circumcision.
