How many days did moses walk from Egypt to midian?

According to the Bible, Moses fled from Egypt to Midian after killing an Egyptian taskmaster. The distance between Egypt and Midian is estimated to be around 200-250 miles, depending on the specific route taken. Assuming an average walking speed of 20-25 miles per day, it would have taken Moses approximately 8-12 days to walk from Egypt to Midian.


Why was Moses sent away?

Moses was sent away from Egypt after he killed an Egyptian who was beating a Hebrew slave.

What did Moses do after he fled Egypt?

The Bible tells us that 600,000 fighting men were among the Israelites who left Egypt, that they took much of Egypt's precious metals, 'borrowed' from their masters, and that an entire army of Egyptians was destroyed in pursuit of the Israelites. Having lost so much of its productive capacity, military power and wealth, Egypt should have faced enormous economic and social strains. Yet, the detailed records available to us for the centuries before and after the time of the Exodus show Egypt continuing to enjoy a period a unprecedented prosperity and in full control of Palestine as the occupying power until around 1200 BCE.Some claim that the Ipuwer Papyrus is evidence of the problems portrayed in Exodus, most notably because of its statement that "the river is blood" and its frequent references to servants running away, but the Ipuwer Papyrus is far too early, having been written no earlier than the late Twelfth Dynasty (c.1991-1803 BCE). The arguments ignore the many points on which Ipuwercontradicts Exodus, including that its Asiatics are arriving in Egypt rather than leaving.On the best information available, nothing of note happened to Egypt following the Exodus. In fact, Israel Finkelstein says that over 90 per cent of scholars believe there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible.


Why was Moses afraid and doubtful to accept his mission from God?

Because he tried to free the slaves when he lived in Egypt and smote an Egyptian and killed him. For this he would have certainly be put to death, so he fled to Madian. When God called him to free Egypt he was afraid for his life, even though many years had passed, but Moses stuttered so it was unmistakably recognized by it. He was afraid to return and put to death. That is why, God assures him that all the people who wanted to kill him are no longer living.
