Question

Explain and youl get extra points! =]

Answer 1

Pharaoh
According to the Book of Exodus in the Hebrew Bible, Moses was a son of Amram, a Levite, and his wife Jochebed. Jochebed was also the sister of Amram's father Kohath. (Exodus vi 20) Aaron was Moses' elder brother. According to Genesis 46:11, Amram's father Kohath immigrated to Egypt with 70 of Jacob's household, making Moses part of the second generation of Israelites born during their time in Egypt.

In the Exodus account, the birth of Moses occurred at a time when the current Egyptian Pharaoh had commanded that all male children born to Hebrew slaves be killed by drowning in the river Nile. The Torah leaves the identity of this Pharaoh unstated.[1]

The finding of Moses, by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo The finding of Moses, by Edwin LongJochebed, the wife of the Levite Amram, bore a son, and kept him concealed for three months. When she could keep him hidden no longer, rather than deliver him to be killed, she set him adrift on the Nile river in a small craft of bulrushes coated in pitch. The daughter of Pharaoh discovered the baby and adopted him as her son, and named him "Moses" (considered to mean "to draw out"). By Biblical account, Moses' sister Miriam observed the progress of the tiny boat and then asked Pharaoh's daughter if she would like a Hebrew woman to nurse the baby. Thereafter, Jochebed was employed as the child's nurse, and he grew and was brought to Pharaoh's daughter and became her son.

Answer 2

Ramses II was the Egyptian Pharoah ruling in ancient Egypt during the Exodus, which is when Moses helped all of the Hebrews escape from their slavery in Egypt. Moses took the Hebrews to their promised land, which is Palestine. This occured between 1440 BC to 1290 BC........it didn't really take this long, but from what I know, historians don't really know the exacts date(s) of the Exodus. These are just 2 possible answers.

Answer 3

History and archeology shows that it Might have been Ramses, which is more of a guess than an accurate account since there are gaps in the Bible itself... so it can't be referenced as a true timeline in that sense. (There's supposedly anywhere from 300 - 500 years between the Old Test and the New Test) Some historians believe that it was another pharoah, maybe Tut's ancestor... But the popular one is Ramses (the 2nd I believe).

Answer 4

The time of Moses and the first Passover would have been some time during the 18th or 19th Dynasty of Pharoahs.
Ramesses I or II could have been in power at the time, or any number of others.

Answer 5

They used to say it was Rameses the 2 but now they are saying it was a pharaoh named Ahmose.They are pinpointing the time of the Exodus around King Tuts grandfathers time because Aknatun was the first to believe in one God and he was Tuts father. Maybe he saw the Exodus and new there was only one God. Aknatun was also the second son so that would fall correct with the first of Egypt being killed.There are also some hieroglyphics depicting the Hebrews leaving and waters parting on stone dealing with Ahmose.

Answer 6

I and my Christian friends have experienced God in many different and powerful ways. We talk about him and praise him nearly ev every time we meet. After taking a step of faith, as it were into the dark, THEN God starts showing up in your life and speaking and directing in many ways. Personally, he once spoke to me in a clear man's voice. He answered a question I had asked him a few weeks previously. I have never experienced The flying spaghetti Monster, Noctis, and no one ever will - only if in frustration I chuck it at you! It is one of the wonders of this universe that people can so deceive themselves to deny the life of the man Jesus, for whom there are heaps of evidence (and presumably for the prophet Mohamed who lived at some time later) Jesus started a new Powerful Faith movement which spread like wild fire without force or compulsion. When religion was later imposed upon it, the whole thing changed and was corrupted.

Answer 7

Funny you should mention that. The Egyptians, who seemed to have recorded even daily gossip, don't have a word to say about Moses, or the captivity of the Jews, or their release. You'd think the plagues, the murder of the Egyptian children, or at least the drowning of their army would've rated a hieroglyphic or two. Maybe we'll find something in the future. But in the meantime .... mmm.

Answer 8

Answer 9

King Herod

Answer 10
