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.

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.

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!

When did Moses smite the river?

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.

How did aaron betray Moses?

What does Exodus ch 23 v 1 to 9 mean?

Matthew Henry's synopsis of Exodus 23:1-9 is: "...Laws against falsehood and injustice...".

"...Ver. 1-9 In the law of Moses are very plain marks of sound moral feeling, and of true political wisdom. Every thing in it is suited to the desired and avowed object, the worship of one only God, and the separation of Israel from the pagan world. Neither parties, friends, witnesses, nor common opinions, must move us to lessen great faults, to aggravate small ones, excuse offenders, accuse the innocent, or misrepresent any thing." (Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary: Exodus 23:1-9)

(Exodus 23:1-9 NLT New Living Translation): "Do not pass along false reports. Do not cooperate with evil people by telling lies on the witness stand. Do not join a crowd that intends to do evil. When you are on the witness stand, do not be swayed in your testimony by the opinion of the majority. And do not slant your testimony in favor of a person just because that person is poor. If you come upon your enemy's ox or donkey that has strayed away, take it back to its owner. If you see the donkey of someone who hates you struggling beneath a heavy load, do not walk by. Instead, stop and offer to help. Do not twist justice against people simply because they are poor. Keep far away from falsely charging anyone with evil. Never put an innocent or honest person to death. I will not allow anyone guilty of this to go free. Take no bribes, for a bribe makes you ignore something that you clearly see. A bribe always hurts the cause of the person who is in the right. Do not oppress the foreigners living among you. You know what it is like to be a foreigner. Remember your own experience in the land of Egypt."

What was Pharaoh's answer to Moses and Aaron?

He answered them more than once (Exodus ch.5 to 11), but the gist of all the answers was that he refused to free the Israelites. (Sometimes he spoke of his own volition, not as an answer, and did proclaim the Israelites' emancipation, but in each case [except ch.12] he soon retracted.)

What was Moses first wife' s name?

What important events was Moses responsible for?

Moses was an Israelite, a great-great grandson of Jacob. He was born 245 years after the death of Abraham. The time when Moses was born was when the Pharaoh ordered his people to kill all Jewish male infants because he (Pharaoh) was afraid that the Israelites would become too strong for him (Exodus ch.1-2). Moses' mother didn't want him to die. So she made a basket for him and put him in it to float in the Nile reeds. He was found by the Pharaoh's daughter, who took pity on him (Exodus ch.2) and raised him as her own son. He was forced to flee after killing a cruel Egyptian taskmaster, and went to Midian, where he wedded the daughter of Jethro. He eventually achieved the highest level of prophecy (Deuteronomy ch.34) and was called upon by God (Exodus ch.3). He brought the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery (Exodus ch.12). He received the Torah from God (Exodus 24:12) and later recorded it in writing (Deuteronomy 31:24). He went up on Mount Sinai for 40 days and nights (Deuteronomy ch.9-10) and brought down the Two Stone Tablets with the Ten Commandments (Exodus 31:18). He brought the Israelites into the covenant with God (Exodus ch.19 and ch.24), and he oversaw the building of the Tabernacle (Exodus ch.35-40). He was the humblest of men and the greatest of prophets (Numbers ch.12).

Who was prophet Moses to God?

He was the greatest of God's prophets (Numbers ch.12, Deuteronomy ch.34). He was God's dedicated emissary in announcing the Plagues, in bringing the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery, in leading them in the wilderness, and in giving them God's Torah. See also:
