The Pharaoh's Daughter was the one who fished Moses out of the bullrushes. She found him a nursemaid and raised him as her son. This allowed Moses to escape being killed along with the rest of the sons of the Hebrews.

Freud (who was Jewish himself) wrote a book called Moses and Monotheism where he argued Moses was an Egyptian lord who supported the Pharaoh Akhenaton, who decided that the polytheistic Egyptian religion should be banned and all would bow down to the one God Aten. Freud argued that when Akhenaton was dethroned because of his attempts to oppose monotheism, the nobles who supported his efforts would have been scattered. Moses, he says, was likely a feudal lord over his vassals, the Habiru tribe. He writes taht Yahweh seems to have been a Midianite volcano God that became the image of Aten for Moses, who imposed this belief on the Habiru.

Says Freud, anyway.

There have been many ancient stories; but many scholars doubt that Moses was a Pharaoh; many agree that he was a brave young warrior who conquered Ethiopia and maybe fell in love with an Ethiopian princess.
Contrary to what many think, there seem to be no connection with Yahweh and a volcano...the real word is YHWH which means..I am what I am.

He was a Hebrew, adopted by an Egyptian princess (who raised him up as a prince of Egypt) when she found him in the bulrushes, safe and secure in a little wicker basket made by his mother to hide him from the murderous Eqyptians who were bent on killing all Hebrew baby boys.

Moses became the deliverer of his people, the Hebrews, when God commissioned him from out of 'the burning bush.'

Edit:
To answer wolfkare's comment...
If the pharaoh's wife was a Muslim, then she was an idol-worshipper. It is a historical fact that the ancient Egyptians worshipped a pantheon of idols which included Horus & Osiris & even Baal. Are you saying that Muslims are idol-worshippers? Islam began only in the 6th Century A.D. It is the youngest religion in the world, mind you. Please get your facts right, sister!

Edit:
To 'add to' sara's comment....
The nursemaid that Pharaoh's daughter enlisted for the baby Moses was his own biological mother, a Hebrew woman, a descendent of Levi (one of the 12 sons of Jacob, renamed as Israel, meaning Prince with God).

"And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch it.
And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, this is one of the Hebrews' children.
Then said his sister (Miriam, Moses' sister, who was watching by the river-bank) to Pharaoh's daughter, Shall I go and call to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?
And the Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.
And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water." (Exodus 1: 5-1 KJV)

He was raised by someone in power- daughter of Pharaoh- however, he rejected their beliefs and returned to his people. He was one of the many Hebrew slaves of Egypt, and lead God's people out of Egypt.

No.

Moses and the Exodus are actually symbolic of the change in the astrological age.

Egyptian religion believed in Horus, Osiris and Isis, in the previous age, Judaism created Moses, Joshua and the prophets in their age, then Jesus and the apostles were created for our current age.

Its all tied to what constellation the sun rises into during 2140 year ages.

The god of the 10 commandments, the mountain of Sin, and the desert of Sin is Satan.

"All that came before me are thieves and robbers"
"O' fools and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken.

"As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness"

And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived. Num 21:8-9

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. Rev 13:14-15

And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. Luke 4:5-7

Moses wanted the "promised land" and Satan said he would give it to him. (Satan mixed lies with truth). The land promised to Abraham was the kingdom of heaven.
