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.

What is the literary context of Genesis?
Scholars say that Genesis was witten by three authors and probably had at least two redactors who completed the work at different stages, finally producing the book much as we know it today.
The earliest source is believed to have been the anonymous author now known as the Yahwist, or 'J Source', who used an early form of the Hebrew language and is believed to have lived around 950 BCE. The source's main interests were the southern kingdom, Judah, and the Aaronid priesthood. The Yahwist always used 'YHWH' as the name for an anthropomorphic God with human characteristics. His God made promises and covenants with his chosen people.
The Elohist ('E Source') must have written sometime before 722 BCE, when Israel was destroyed by the Assyrians. This source came from the northern kingdom of Israel, and was generally more concerned with general stories than individuals. He had a moderately eloquent style and also used an early form of the Hebrew language. The Elohist always used 'Elohim' as the name for a more transcendent God who required obedience and was feared by his people. People could never look at the Elohist's God, so he typically came in dreams or visions, but sometimes in the form of a cloud or a flame.
The Priestly source ('P Source'), writing in the fifth or fourth century BCE, drew on the earlier works of J and E, changing details to suit the priestly point of view. This source had a low level of literary style and focussed on the formal relations between God and society. He used the names Elohim and El Shaddai (God Almighty) to describe a remote and unmerciful God.
In Genesis chapters 1 and 2, we can see the distinction quite clearly between the Priestly Source's view of God and creation, compared with the Yahwist's view. In chapter 1 (up to the first sentence of verse 2:4), The Priestly Source's God is almost all-powerful, simply speaking things into existence and placing the sun, moon and stars in the firmament. He does not interact with the humans he created, other than blessing them and commanding them to be fruitful and multiply. In the Yahwist's account (Genesis from 2:4b, through chapter 3), there are limits to God's powers. God must make Adam and the animals from clay, and Eve from a rib taken from Adam's side. In this account, God places Adam and Eve in a garden and he himself walks around the garden, talking to the humans. Unlike the Priestly Source's God, that of the Yahwist is capable of showing human emotion.
How were the Egyptians stopped from following Moses?
Moses parted the Red Sea for the Jews to cross through. When the Egyptians came up behind them, the walls of the sea crashed down on them.
Did lightning strike the bush when Moses met God?
We should not look for natural explanations for biblical miracles. We should either accept them as miracles or recognise them as myths that never really happened. There probably never was a Moses, but if there was a man behind the myth, scholars say there was no biblical Exodus from Egypt and therefore there was no burning bush.

What did Moses take out of Egypt?
The Book of Exodus says that Moses and the Israelites took their cattle and sheep. According to Exodus 13:19 they also took the bones of Joseph, to be buried in the Promised Land. Verse 12:35 says they "borrowed" silver, gold and valuable raiments from the Egyptians, who in spite of this did not understand that the Israelites were about to leave and never return.
The loss of such a large and productive workforce, along with the considerable wealth of the Egyptians would naturally find its way into the numerous Egyptian archives we have for the period, yet the records show that life continued as normal, with no suggestion of an economic upheaval, nor the indirect effects of the loss of an entire army that pursued the Israelites. This is just one reason that nearly all scholars say that there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible, meaning that neither Moses nor the Israelites took anything out of Egypt.
Was Moses denied entry to the Promised Land because he murdered an Egyptian?
It is possible, as the Bible is not completely clear on the purpose of his being prohibited entry. The usual reason proposed, however, is that Moses hit the rock to release water instead of asking it to release water per God's instructions.
