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.

How did pharaoh die?

General Answer

Pharaoh is the ancient Egyptian title for the ruler of the land of Egypt - the king. There were many Pharaohs and they died in many different ways.

Biblical AnswerAccording to the Holy Quran, the Pharaoh died by drowning when the Red Sea parted for Moses (peace be upon him). Some also say he lived on longer then the death at the Red Sea because in the Old Testament it never really says if he lived or died.

Moses did not divide people into groups.

The children of Israel were divided into tribes based on which son of Jacob(Israel) they descended from.

Does anyone believe that the numbers 5 test for the jealous husband applies for a jealous wife as well?

To the following extent: the Talmud (Sotah 28a) says that the test would only work if the husband was clean of any similar sin; and it also says that during the test, the male adulterer would be stricken when the adulteress was stricken (Rashi commentary, Numbers 5).

However, the test was not for a married man who was suspected of trysting with a single woman.

What was the prophet Moses passionate about?

After checking through the entire Torah, it becomes clear that the several occasions in which Moses "became angry" (such as in Exodus ch.16, Leviticus ch.10 and Numbers ch.31), all involved someone violating (or seeming to violate) a Torah-command. This means that he was passionate about God's Torah. And when God's command is fulfilled, we can read between the lines that Moses is happy (see Exodus 39:43).

Moses also becomes ardent when his people are suffering (Exodus 2:11-12, and 5:22-23) or need forgiveness (Exodus 32:32, Numbers 16:22). It is because of this love for his people that, when he is about to die, he ceases his words of admonishment and gives his people a long, impassioned blessing (Deuteronomy ch.33).

Who seen the face of God in the old testament?

It would appear only Moses had that honor but Exodus 33:20-23 clarifies that Moses only saw God's back-side not His face.

Exodus 33:11

The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend.

Deuteronomy 34:10

And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face.

Exodus 33:20-23

"But," he said, "you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live." Then the LORD said, "There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen."

Did Moses and the Levites violate the command that stated Thou shalt not kill?

In the laws of Moses the penalty for murder and adultery was being stoned to death (Numbers 35:16, Leviticus 20:10). A number of translations of the Ten Commandments interpret 'Thou shalt not kill' as 'Thou shalt not murder' which has quite a different meaning. For example, NIV uses 'murder' in place of 'kill' in its translation (Exodus 20:13).

By this definition of kill vs murder, the state (or Moses and the Levites under his direction) would have the authority to kill people as a result of high crimes as defined in the laws.

How did Moses populate the earth?

There is a little confusion here. The Bible says that Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, while the earth was obviously already populated. Much earlier, when the Flood subsided, the only living persons are said to have been Noah and his family. According to the Bible, all subsequent humans are descended from Noah. Is this what you meant?

Did Moses have a surname?

No. Most ancient people, and many modern ones, have only one name.
