Answer 1Abraham shaped the Hebrew history by being told by God himself, or believed that He did tell him, to leave his own home, and settle into Canaan where his descendants-the Hebrews-- finally settled also, but later, some of the Hebrews moved to Egypt, (they moved to other parts of the world later). However, with the growth of the Hebrews, the pharaoh of Egypt, was worried the Hebrews soon might take over, and to stop that from happening, he made the Hebrews slaves. A man named Moses appeared among the Hebrews in Egypt. God told Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses then went to the pharaoh and demanded that the Hebrews should be free. The pharaoh refused. Soon afterward a series of plagues (disasters) struck Egypt and the pharaoh then agreed to let the Hebrews free.Christian answer:They both spread the word about God and Jesus.Jewish answer:Abraham founded Judaism.Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt and received the Torah from God.
The Torah doesn't mention the name of the Pharaoh who enslaved the Hebrews.
It goes back to when the Hebrews were enslaved in Egypt. Moses was trying to convince the pharaoh to free them and the pharaoh kept refusing. Moses then unleashed ten plagues on Egypt. After the tenth plague, the pharaoh relented and said the Hebrews were free. While packing, they did not have time to bake bread, as they were afraid the pharaoh would change his mind. This unleavened bread is now called matzah, and is eaten on Passover, the holiday celebrating the liberation of the Jews from Egypt.
