Moses
Moses is the most important prophet in Judaism and is also important in Christianity and Islam. Moses led the Israelites out of their slavery in Egypt, miraculously crossing a divided Red Sea. At Mount Sinai he received the Ten Commandments. He led the Israelites through 40 years of desert wandering and finally to the Promised Land. He died there, within sight of his goal, at the age of 120.

If Moses was a prophet then what were his prophecies?
In Biblical terms a prophet isn't someone who foretells the future, although that can happen. A Biblical prophet is one who speaks for God, or through whom God speaks. Moses' story can be found in the first 5 books of the Bible. When he speaks what God has told him, those are "his prophecies."
* Prophecies in Exodus * Prophecy in Numbers * Prophecies in Deuteronomy
Perhaps the best well known predictive prophecy is when God through Moses predicted Jesus coming in Deuteronomy 18 v 17-18
And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. I will raise them up a Prophet, from among their brethren,like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth, and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
Was Moses an inspirational leader?
Moses is Known as Hebrew Leader who was sent by God to tell Pharoah a Egyptian "King" to let Gods chosen people go... This story can be read in Exedous in the Bible. It shows the harsh rath of God for those who are evil but the Never Failing Love of a Father for those who believe. Hope this Helps.

When did the Israelites begin wandering in the wilderness?
According to traditional chronology, the Israelites were in the wilderness from the 15th of Nisan in 1312 BCE, until the 10th of Nisan, 1272 BCE. Nisan is roughly the same time as April.
However (and more precisely), their journeys didn't take on the melancholy of wandering until after the incident of the Spies (Numbers ch.13-14), which was in the summer of 1311 BCE.
And, though they were still journeying, the aspect of melancholy (seemingly aimless wandering) ended one year before they entered the Holy Land.
How many Years or Months did it take Moses to convince pharaoh to let the people leave Egypt?
According to tradition, the Ten Plagues lasted a total of one solar year (Mishna, Eduyot 2:10)).

Tells you that the Israilties were Black people.
Another Answer:
Any human being, regardless of color, would turn 'white' from this disease. To draw the conclusion that Israelites were black is pure speculation as history proves they were Semetic peoples which looked like they do today.
What color was arron moses brother?
Aaron is the same color as Moses Abraham, they were the color of the people of Iraq.
Why did God send the angel to kill Moses?
Your are referring to the incident recorded in Exodus 4:24-26. I think the answer hinges on the fact that Moses, as the chosen leader of God's people, is held to a very high standard. In James 3:1 (NIV) we read, "Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly." Moses was given vastly more responsibility than that of a teacher. See the severity of this responsibility in Numbers 20:10-12.
The incident recorded in Exodus 4:24 is in a similar vein. Moses' younger son was born perhaps on the way to the promised land and Zipporah, it seems, did not want to circumcise this child, Eliezer. Moses, gave in to his wife's refusal and God sent his angel to persuade Moses of the seriousness of the situation, perhaps as he did with Balaam in Numbers 22:22-33.
There was a law in existence before the "Law of Moses." We see hints of it from Genesis 3 and 4 to the sacrifices made by Noah and Abraham. In the Law of God before the time of Moses, circumcision was a sign of the covenant between God and His people. It had been so since the time of Abraham. To neglect this law meant exclusion from the covenant and people of God. What a lesson! Teachers of God's law must themselves be obedient to that law. How could Moses stand up for righteousness with this sin of omission on his conscience?
After this incident, Moses would know with absolute clarity that God means what He says. We know what happened to David after his sin with Bathsheba. Even though he was forgiven, the moral consequences to his leadership in Israel were horrendous. God saved Moses from such a mistake, impressing on him the life and death importance of obedience to His Law. See 1 Samuel 15:22,23!
One wonders, in the light of such incidents as this, how some followers of Christ can so easily set aside the commandment to be baptized. See Matthew 3:13-15 and Mark 16:16. Like circumcision, baptism is a sign of the covenant between God and His people. It is a commandment upon which our salvation depends!

Jesus was on the hill with a few disciples and Moses and Elijah were there as well.
When did Moses smite the river?
The Ten Plagues occurred over the course of one year (Mishna, Eduyos ch.2), so Moses smote the river in Nisan (April), one year before the Exodus.
How did the old Moses story go?
See the Book of Exodus through Deuteronomy in the Old Testament.
He was born to a Hebrew family during the time when the Hebrews worked for Pharaoh in Egypt doing slave labor. And the Pharaoh of that time, stressed over the large size of the Hebrew nation living in his land, decreed that all male babies were to be tossed into the Nile. Moses mother, like any good mom, hid him from the authorities and later built a small reed raft for him and set him afloat on the river. Moses older sister Miriam watched over the raft as it flowed down the river till it came to a place where Pharaoh's daughter was bathing. The princess saw the raft and had her attendants bring it to her, upon discovering the baby boy, she took it to be her own and named him Moses because she had drawn him out of the river. She took it as a sign from the river god that she had been given a child.
The Princess then asked for someone to find her a nurse maid who would provide milk for the baby, Miriam came forward and offered the services of her mother (Moses real mom) so in a wonderful twist of fate, Moses got to be nursed by his mom for several more years.
Moses grew up in the Pharaohs palace, learning and growing up to be a great Prince. One day, when trying to stop two slaves from fighting, he found he could not keep the man off the other so he killed him, buried him in the sand and hoped all would be well. But the one slave who saw what had happened, waned Moses that this would be his undoing and Pharaoh would have Moses killed as punishment. Moses learned of his Hebrew ancestry and then fled, for fear of his life.
Moses fled across the Sinai to the land of Middian (now modern day Saudi Arabia) where he met the Priest of Middian, Jethro. Jethro took him in and taking a liking to him, offered him one of his daughters for a wife. Moses married the oldest daughter.
From here Moses tends the flocks of sheep owned by Jethro and is later accosted by the curious sighting of a burning bush, where he comes literally face to face with JEHOVAH God, who tells Moses that He is the Great I AM who created the earth and the whole of heaven and that He had heard His people's cry for help in the land of Egypt and was sending Moses to be their leader and savior.
The rest of the story is best read straight from the book of Exodus and on. So I encourage you to do so. You can also find information on Moses on-line and in history books or encyclopedias.
