  Improve

God chose him to rescue the Pharoah's slaves. The Pharaoh said no so God made the Diseases, e.t.c. eternl darkness, frogs.


1. Moses was born to the tribe of Levi.
2. Moses was wet nursed by his own mother.
3. Moses was trained in military tactics and government...by the Egyptian Royal House.
4. Moses spent as much time being a shepherd as a Prince of Egypt.
5. Moses probably stuttered. By his own admission, he was "slow of speech."
6. Moses seems to have had two wives.
7. Moses, at the direction of his father-in-law, set up the judicial judge system.
8. Moses never made it to the Promised Land.
9. Moses was three months old when he was put in the basket, so he had been circumcised. He always knew that he was Hebrew because only the Hebrews were circumcised.
10. Moses means "drawn". According to the times, he was named so because of the event of being drawn out of the water. It could also be said that he was continually "drawn" to the life that God chose for him.
11. Moses was 40 when he fled the courts of Egypt.
12. Moses met his brother at Mount Sinai..in Midian. So they traveled back to Egypt together. This same mountain is the one where Moses encountered the burning bush and where he later brought the Israelites to receive the covenant.
13. Moses was 80 years old when he went back to Egypt as God's messenger and leader to the Israelites.
14. Moses performed the first three acts that God commanded on the whole of Egypt. The last 7 were only on the Egyptians. The land of Goshen, where the Israelites lived, were exempt by God's command.
15. Moses knew before he went back to Egypt, exactly what would happen. God told him before he left Midian.
16. The entire book of Deuteronomy is a song that Moses composed to commemorate the forty year journey that the Israelites made.
17. Moses went up on the mountain twice to bring down the tablets of the commandments. The first set he broke, and the pieces were put into the ark with the full set he got the second time.
18. Moses died in Midian. Midian is where Ruth would later come from.
19. Moses died at 120. The Bible records that he was healthy and unimpaired when he died.
20. God buried Moses in a hidden location. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob's tombs are known, but Moses' is not.

answere 2-The only facts about Moses is, there are no facts. Modern Biblical Scholars now agree, at least at this point in time, that the Biblical Moses is not Historical.
Answer 3- Moses is in Egyptian history, although not by the name Moses, but by his Egyptian name. He is also the writer of the first five books in the old Testament, namely Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy(written in Chaldean, or Hebrew if you'd rather call it that)
sort of hard for a man that never existed to write five books.
Moses is one of the most facinating people of all time. He was born of Hebrew parents, slaves of the Egyptians, but was raised by Pharoh's daughter, and was treated like one of the Pharoh's sons. He did not meet his biological family until he was an adult. He was one of the only people that opposed Pharoh that did not end up with his head on a platter. He gave up his priviledged life in Pharoh's palace and possible heir to serve God instead. He is one of the only humans to speak to God in person. He went up the mountain a young man and returned completely gray. Being in the presence of God's power turned his hair gray. Moses lived to be 120 years old.
