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.

Sensational (and unsubstantiated) claims notwithstanding, the answer is that we don't have an exact answer.
When you here the name Moses, the first thing that comes to your mind is, "oh! Moses is that old dude that parted an ocean!" YES! that s true, butttttt, that is not the answer to "who is moses read?" No....the answer is much more intense than that. Moses Edward Read is 14 years old, and was born on Feb. 16, 1995. He currently lives in Poulsbo, Washington and attends North Kitsap Highschool.

When moses returned from mount sinai did the Israelites repent?
Yes. The sinners were dealt with (Exodus 32:26-28, and 32:35), Moses prayed for them (Exodus 34:9, Deuteronomy 9:17-18), and they repented (Ramban commentary on Exodus 33:6). Had they not repented, God would never have made the promise of Exodus 34:10.
He lived until the age of eighty in the region (not city) of Goshen, in or near the Nile Delta, presumably not far from one of the two towns, Pithom or Raamses. See also:
Did Jesus take his ensalved people out of Egypt?

What was the importance of Moses?
Moses is important because
1) As a political leader he led his people out of bondage in Egypt to the "promised Land".
2) HaShem gave the Jewish people the Torah through Moses. (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) This is the basis of their law and beginning history from the creation of the world to their existence of a nation.
Where was the Law given to Moses?
God spoke various portions of the Torah to Moses in different places, beginning in Egypt (Exodus ch.12) and ending on the east bank of the Jordan (Numbers 33:50), with additional places in between during the Israelites' 40 years in the wilderness between Egypt and Canaan. Moses had written all the Torah between the time of the Exodus [1446BC Ussher] and his death 40 years later [1406BC Ussher]. This included when the Law was given to Moses by God on Mt Sinai.
Leviticus 26
46 These are the statutes and judgments and laws, which the LORD made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.
However, although the Bible it is called Mt Sinai, and also called 'Horeb', it is NOT the Mt Sinai of today in the Sinai Peninsula: it is actually 'Jebel el Lawz' in Saudi Arabia.

What were the 3 curses of Moses to get the slaves from Pharaoh?
God brought ten plagues upon the Egyptians, using Moses as His go-between. The Ipuwer papyrus mentions a number of the Plagues ("Pestilence is throughout the land....the river is blood, death is not scarce...there is no food...neither fruit nor herbs can be found...barley has perished...all is ruin...the statues are burned") (Professor John van Seters, Journal of Egyptian Archaeology no. 50). The plagues were also described by ancient historians, including Herodotus and Diodorus. The Exodus is mentioned by Strabo, Berosus, Artapanus, Numenius, Justin, and Tacitus.See also the Related Links.
What were the advantages to Moses living as a young child with his own mother?
The emotional benefits are well-documented. But an equally important point is that both of his parents, and his siblings, taught him of his Israelite heritage.
Aaron who later became the High Priest for Israel. See Exodus 4:14.
From which mountain did Moses look across the Jordan River before he died?
He died on Mount Pisgah, and was buried by the Lord in a valley in the land of Moab, and his grave was forever hidden from human sight (Deuteronomy 34:1-7).
Was Sobekneferu Moses step mother?
There is no direct historical evidence supporting the idea that Sobekneferu was Moses's stepmother. Sobekneferu was an Egyptian queen who ruled during the Middle Kingdom, while Moses is a figure from the Hebrew Bible who led the Israelites out of Egypt. The two characters come from different historical and cultural contexts.
Why did Moses not want to write the ten commandments?
Well, this question is stated in a funny way. Really, we don't know anything about what Moses did or didn't want. This is what we do know about him:
Moses is a character in the Torah, which is the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Old Testament to Christians. He is given credit for taking dictation of these five books while the character of God himself narrated what to write down. Thus, from a biblical perspective, Moses did not write any of the bible. He simply wrote down what God told him to write down.
As far as the Ten Commandments themselves, God considered them so central and so important that HE wanted to write them down Himself. So the Ten Commandments are the only part of the entire Bible that were written by the actual "finger of God": A fiery flame that etched these ten sayings into tablets of stone that could be read from both the front or the back.
