Moses was a Jew, but was "adopted" by the Egyptian princess. He later fled Egypt and lived with his new wife and her parents. While living there, God spoke to him through a burning bush and told him to help the enslaved Israelites out of slavery and out of Egypt. Afterward, Moses and his brother Aaron went to the Pharaoh and asked him to free the Israelites. The Pharaoh refused, and even increased the work load of the Israelite's. After God caused the plagues of; water turned to blood, frogs, gnats, flies, death of livestock, boils and sores, hail and fire, locusts, darkness, and repeated askings by Moses and Aaron to be free, Pharaoh still refused. Lastly, God instituted the death of every firstborn son whose door was not marked by lamb's blood. (This is the Passover.) Finally, Pharaoh makes the Israelites leave Egypt. They follow a pillar of cloud by day, and a pillar of fire by night, supplied to them by God, towards the land of Canaan.
When the Egyptians decided to follow the Israelites, God gave Moses the power to put his staff in the Red Sea, and cause it to split. The Israelites crossed safely, but the sea closed again behind them, drowning every last Egyptian.
Moses' story continues from the book of Exodus in The Bible all the way to the end of Deuteronomy.
So simply, Moses was a prophet used by God to free the Israelites from Egypt.
The Ten Commandments were given to guide Moses and his people.

Yes, at first Moses worried the people would not listen to him because he stuttered and had a lack of confidence. God had Moses' brother Aaron help Moses because of this. However, Moses later gained confidence and was able to be a leader.
aaron would help moses
Yes, but not many.
There were 70 appointed to help Moses.
Yes.
When Moses held up his hands, the isrealites won. When Moses did not hold up his hands, then the isrealites were defeated. Holding up your hand is a symol of asking God for help. It shows the people that God would give them great victory. Their own strength would not be able to let them win, but believing in God will.
