What 3 parts of moses life helped him free the hebrews?

Moses lived for 120 years, 40 years in Egypt, 40 years in the land of Midian and 40 years leading the Hebrew people in the way to the promised land. ANSWER: Moses lived in Egypt for 40 years and learned all the ways of the Egyptians. The next 40 years Moses lived as a shepherd, was married and His father in law (Jethro) was a priest of Midian. It has been said by many scholars that Jethro was a priest of the one true God. If this is so he and Moses had a lot to talk about as Moses had been raised by his mother, Jecobed for some years and no doubt was told about God by her. It was during the last part of the desert years that Jehovah called Moses to deliver the children out of Egypt. The next 40 years Moses did in fact lead the children out of Egypt and was the go between of God and the Israelites. It wasn't Moses' experience that led God to call upon him. All the work of bringing the Israelites out of Egypt was God's doing. Moses was the instrument.

What is the significance of Moses leads the enslaved Israelites out of Egypt?

The significance of the exodus out of Egypt was to show the Israelites the power of their God, the God of Israel. Up until this point some of the Israelites were being influenced by the Egyptian ways and their so called gods. After many years of enslavement and praying to God for their freedom, the God of Israel has groomed Moses and is showing his power to Israel and also to their oppressors, the Egyptians. Moreover, Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt also points to the cross, in that through Christ sacrifice we are being led out our enslaved sin life to a life of salvation.
