SCRIPTURE
Exodus 1 and 2 Old Testament
For many generations, the Israelites were captive slaves in Egypt.Pharoah is the title given to an Egyptian king. As the years went by, the number of Israelites multiplied greatly and this threatened the pharaoh.He didn'tlike that at all so he made a decree that all boy babies would be murdered to keep their population at bay. He had them drowned in the Nile as soon as they were born!
So when Moses's mother gave birth to a boy, she decided to hide her beautiful baby in a wicker basket. Then she placed the basket gently into the river to save him. Miriam, his sister, watched from the riverbank as the basket floated away.
Soon Pharoah's daughter came down to the river to bathe . While there she spotted the basket and wanted to keep the baby to raise.
When he became an adult, God spoke to him to be a deliverer for his enslaved people Stay tuned for the next part, Frogs, Locusts, Flies, Oh, My!
