Moses

2 Wives, Zipporah and the Ethiopian Woman.

Additionally

There is debate over the issue of whether Zipporah from Ex 2:21 is the same wife as the reference to the Ethiopian woman in Num 12:1. There are arguments for both sides of the issue so we cannot be absolutely sure.

He left to the land of Midian after he killed the Egyptian.

Abraham remarried, this time to a woman named Keturah. The children he had with her were: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak and Shuah. Joktan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. The descendants of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim and Leummim. The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida and Eldaah. All these were sons of Keturah. Genesis 25: 1-4

Notice the name Midian in the verse. That was the common ancestor of the Midians. So these people were also Hebrews from the line of Abraham and Keturah. Moses sons were Hebrews from both sides.

Moses took the people to Palestine.

He took the ex-slaves into the wilderness. It was Joshua who took them into the Holy Land.

Answer 1

at first he was the son of the pharaoh (his mother floated him down the Nile so he would not be killed because the pharaoh would kill all first born sons of the Hebrews)then he realized he was actually a Hebrew and killed a slave master because the Hebrews were slaves so he was vanished from the kingdom then he heard the Hebrew God for the first time and the God said to ask the pharaoh to free his people so he went to the pharaoh(which was now his brother not his dad his brothers name is: Ramses II) But he said he wouldn't free them so god punished them with the ten plagues

So the reason god choose Moses is because he was trustworthy and the first time god spoke to him he did what God said

Answer 2

Numbers 12:3 says this:

Now the man Moses was very meek, more than all people who were on the face of the earth.

The greatest leader of Judaism was Moses (Deuteronomy ch.34).

The founder of Judaism, according to tradition, was Abraham.

Abraham, tenth generation descendant of Noah, of Hebrew lineage, was the son of Terah, uncle of Lot, father of Isaac, grandfather of Jacob, and ancestor of the Israelites. His story is in Genesis ch.11 (end), through ch.25. Jewish tradition states that he was the first to teach belief in One God; and it is in his merit that Jews continue to exist (Genesis 18:19, and ch.17).

Abraham (18th century BCE) came from ancestry that had been God-fearing a couple of centuries earlier but had afterwards slipped into idolatry (Joshua 24:2). Nimrod, the idolatrous tyrant, had brought Abraham's father (Terah) from the Semitic ancestral seat near the conjunction of the Balikh and the Euphrates, and instated him in a position of power in his army in the royal Babylonian city of Ur, where Abraham was born. Nimrod persecuted any who would question his idolatrous cult.

The Kuzari (Rabbi Judah HaLevi, 1075-1141) states that Abraham was gifted with high intelligence; and, as Maimonides (1135-1204) describes, Abraham didn't blindly accept the ubiquitous idolatry. The whole populace had been duped, but the young Abraham contemplated the matter relentlessly, finally arriving at the conclusion that there is One God and that this should be taught to others as well. This is what is meant by his "calling out in the name of the Lord" (Genesis ch.12). As a young man, he remonstrated with passersby in public, demonstrating to them the falsehood of their idols; and our tradition tells how he was threatened and endangered by Nimrod.

Subsequently, Terah relocated to Harran; and it is here that Abraham began to develop a circle of disciples (Rashi commentary, on Genesis 12:5).

Later, God told Abraham in prophecy to move to the Holy Land, which is where Abraham raised his family.

He continued his contemplations, eventually arriving at the attitudes and forms of behavior which God later incorporated into the Torah given to Moses.

Abraham, with God's help, singlehandedly trounced the supremacy of the evil Nimrod. He received God's promise of inheriting the Holy Land (Genesis 13). He strove to raise a family (Genesis ch.15, 17, and 24) which would serve God (Genesis 18:19); and God eventually blessed his efforts, granting him many children (ibid., ch.16, 21 and 25), as He had promised (Genesis ch.17). Abraham founded the Jewish people and lived to see his work live on in the persons of Isaac and Jacob; and he taught many other disciples as well (Talmud, Yoma 28b). He saved the population of the south of Canaan from invading foreign kings (Genesis 14); and he was feared by neighboring kings (ibid., ch.12 and 20). Abraham gave tithes (Genesis ch.14), entered into a covenant with God (Genesis ch.15 and 17), welcomed guests into his home (Genesis ch.18) unlike the inhospitable Sodomites (Genesis ch.19), prayed for people (Genesis ch.18), rebuked others when necessary (Genesis ch.20), eulogized and buried the deceased (Genesis ch.23), and fulfilled God's will unquestioningly (Genesis ch.22). He became renowned as a prince of God (Genesis 23:6).

All of these forms of behavior were based upon the ways of God, which Abraham comprehended through his contemplations. These, and similar personality traits, were the teachings of Abraham and his descendants (unlike idolatry, which had tended to go hand in hand with cruel, licentious and excessive behavior, since the caprices which were narrated concerning the idols were adopted as an excuse to imitate those types of behavior).

It is therefore clear why God expresses His love for Abraham (Isaiah 41:8) and calls Himself the God of Abraham (Genesis 26:24), and says that Abraham obeyed Him fully (Genesis 26:5). And this is why, according to our tradition, Abraham is credited with having begun the religion which became known as Judaism. However, Abraham and his descendants observed their traditions voluntarily, until the Giving of the Torah to Moses 3325 years ago, when God made it obligatory.

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).

The scriptures ONLY say that 'the daughter of Pharaoh' took Moses from the water of the Nile(Exodus 2:1-10/Acts 7:20-22). No name is given. Then, she, in turn, unknowingly, hired Jochebed, Moses' REAL mother, as a nursemaid (Exodus 2:7+8)(Exodus 6:20).

Another thought:

In the famous movie, it's 'Bithia'

Jesus, the only man who could. Jesus is God and man. He's real. He died on the cross for our sins. Repent and Believe!!!! :)

Answer:

Moses also did it:

"...Moses disappeared into the cloud-covered mountain top, and was there for forty days and forty nights." (Ex.24:18 LVBLiving Bible)

"Moses was up on the mountain with the Lord for forty days and forty nights, and in all that time he neither ate nor drank. At that time God wrote out the Covenant - the Ten Commandments - on the stone tablets." (Ex.34:28 LVB)

Here are examples:

The pillar of cloud, and pillar of fire (Exodus ch.13)Water given from the rock (Exodus ch.17)

The manna and the quail (Exodus ch.16)

The Ten Commandments (Exodus ch.19), and later, the rest of the Torah (Exodus 24:12)

God's presence in the Tabernacle (Exodus ch.40, Leviticus ch.8)

God told Moses to follow his commandments. There was 613 of them.

10 of them are the most important

e.g. Do not commit adultery ect ect....
g*d told Moses to ask Pheroh to let the Jewish nation free.

There is no record of this, but Joshua talked of "my house" to the children of Israel, indicating perhaps that he had descendants:

"but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24.15)

Answer:

They are not named. According to tradition, Joshua had no sons. He had a daughter or daughters and was an ancestor of Huldah the Prophetess (Talmud, Megillah 14b).

The total number of biblical books are different:

Jewish Bible: 24

Protestants: 39

Catholics 46

Orthodox Christians: up to 53.

The 39 books listed above are those included in the Protestant Bible traditionally King James version. The 46 books of Catholic Bible include seven Deuterocanonical books or Apocrypha as they are called by Protestants. These include : 1 Esdras, 2 Esdras, Tobit, Judith, The Wisdom of Solomon, Ecclesiasticus (Sirach) , and Baruch.

Likewise the order and grouping of books are somewhat different. For example, the Hebrew Bible combines the 12 minor prophets into a single book, which accounts for most differences in the number of books.

Even with all these differences, the first five books of the Bible are the same in Jewish and Christian bibles.
