Moses was an Israelite, a great-great grandson of Jacob. He was born 245 years after the death of Abraham. The time when Moses was born was when the Pharaoh had ordered his people to kill all Israelite male infants because he (Pharaoh) was afraid that the Israelites would become too strong for him (Exodus ch.1-2).
Moses' mother didn't want him to die. So she made a basket for him and put him in it to float in the Nile reeds. He was found by Pharaoh's daughter, who took pity on him (Exodus ch.2) and raised him as her own son.
Moses was forced to flee after killing a cruel Egyptian taskmaster, and went to Midian, where he wedded the daughter of Jethro.
He eventually achieved the highest level of prophecy (Deuteronomy ch.34) and was called upon by God (Exodus ch.3). He brought the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery (Exodus ch.12). He received the Torah from God (Exodus 24:12) and later recorded it in writing (Deuteronomy 31:24). He went up on Mount Sinai for 40 days and nights (Deuteronomy ch.9-10) and brought down the Two Stone Tablets with the Ten Commandments (Exodus 31:18). He brought the Israelites into the covenant with God (Exodus ch.19 and ch.24), and he oversaw the building of the Tabernacle (Exodus ch.35-40). He was the humblest of men and the greatest of prophets (Numbers ch.12).

Did Moses influence American history?
Yes. Countless political leaders throughout US history have used the symbolism of the biblical prophet Moses. The "Story of Moses" gave meaning and hope to the Pilgrims seeking religious and personal freedom, and later inspired America's founding fathers during the American Revolution.The Moses story helped writers of the Declaration of Independence, followed by our Constitution. His story was referred to by Abraham Lincoln to help justify America's Civil War, and then by civil rights leaders. Some scholars have claimed that the Ten Commandments is the basis of America's Constitution, with theologians like William Barclay proclaiming, "From Israel we Christian peoples inherit that wise and holy code of laws. Our society is founded upon it."John Adams, America's 2nd president, compared Moses to the Greek philosophers: "As much as I love, esteem, and admire the Greeks, I believe the Hebrews have done more to enlighten and civilize the world. Moses did more than all their legislators and philosophers." Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jeffersoncreated the first official Seal of the United Statesdepicting Moses, and later inscribed the words of Moses on the Liberty Bell. During the formation of America's government, leaders insisted that "democracy" should be modeled after the government of ancient Israel and the Laws of Moses.
