Moses: The Story Of Exodus

It was no surprise that Pharaoh immediately regretted letting the Jews go. He sent his army in chariots to chase after and bring the Jews back. The Jews were caught between the Pharaohs army and the Red Sea. It was here where the miracle took place. “Moses raised his hand and the sea just parted, it split in half leaving a clear passage for the Jews to cross, G-d definitely had a hand in this” said the

The Israelites were cornered at the Red Sea, with nowhere else to go. Moses tells the Israelites not to fear and that the Lord will help them. Moses is given the power by God to divide the sea in half. The Israelites cross the Red Sea safely while the Egyptians that followed were immediately drowned as the sea came together again. It was proven that God put up a constant fight for the Israelites, never giving up for them because of His love for them. He fought for their survival and well-being.

The Hebrew Exodus has had people debating its plausibility for quite some time. From scholars to regular students, people have been trying to prove or disprove the Hebrew Exodus, either with facts or belief. Despite the strong evidence against the Exodus, many will choose to believe in it anyway. My personal belief of the Hebrew Exodus, is that it didn’t happen. It’s hard to believe the Exodus happened when the historical findings are non-existent. The Exodus events haven’t made it into recorded history, which was well kept by Egyptians, they also haven’t left anything to be found in the Sinai Desert, and has chronological errors.

I do not believe the Exodus happened as the bible has proclaimed it happened. I believe this because there isn’t any archeological evidence that the Sinai desert could have 3 million people survive and there was no record of a massive increase in population in Canaan . Also there isn’t any written proof that there was any Israelites in Egypt other than what the Hebrews wrote. There was no way a supposed 3 million Hebrew slaves could have prepared and made the journey from Egypt to their destination as the Bible said they did.

I personally believe, based on my religion and facts, that the events in Exodus really happened. In this short essay I will give evidence that the events in the book of Exodus really happened. But I will write a paragraph giving examples of why it didn't happen, so I can write about both sides.

They believed that God came down to Moses and gave him the entire Torah. He also instructed him to lead the Jewish slaves out of Israel. He also gave Moses great powers. Moses was able to split the sea in half to allow his followers to pass through to the holy land.

Moses was a great leader of the Israelites. In the 1300s B.C.E., by the time of Moses, a large group of Abraham’s descendants were living in Egypt. The pharaoh was scared of their growth so he quickly put them into slavery. According to the Torah, God had told Moses “I will send you to the pharaoh, and you shall free my people.”, Moses went to the pharaoh, the Torah continues, and told him to let the Israelites go free, The pharaoh refused. Because of that God punished Egypt with ten terrible plagues. According to the Torah, the pharaoh quickly changed his mind, but when the Israelites left the Egyptians followed them and caught up with them at the sea of reeds. But Moses raised his staff and waters of the seas parted. The Israelites safely

The Hebrews travelled along the road to Bashan. The king, Og, advanced and started a battle. God reassured Moses not to fear, that He would deliver them to him. He told him to battle the same as they did to Sihon. They took the city and all its inhabitants, there were no survivors.

I think my first memory of the all power Moses was from when I was fifteen. I was laying on my stomach in my cabin, listing to the sound of what I recognized to be a barn owl. I then heard two other slaves walk past my permanently open window.

While the title “Exodus” comes from the Septuagint and means “The Way Out,” the original Hebrew language is taken from the opening verse, “And these are the names.” The interpretation of the title is compelling because it points out what Gentile and Jewish believers might consider to be essential in their faith. While the Jewish people might put much emphasis upon the history of their ancestors because of the eventual renewal and perpetuation of the covenant is established through their deliverance from Egypt and the reigning Pharaoh, the most significant idea of the book of Exodus for the Gentiles might be that God had delivered them from their own slavery (a type of Egypt).

The biblical Exodus account has been understood on a number of different levels.[2] Historically, the Exodus represents the process of Israelite's slavery under a Egyptian pharaoh, followed by their freedom flight from Egypt to the promised land, Canaan. Theologically the Exodus implicates important themes: divine promise and fulfillment of it, eternal covenant, human suffering and redemption. Paradigmatically, the Exodus provides the powerful image of "the archetype for all subsequent redemption and liberation experiences, it has become

This passage can be seen as a biographical narrative. This is because the passage gives the birth legend of Moses and starts off discussing Moses’s birth and how a he as a Hebrew came to live in the palace of Pharaoh. Something that is more prominent is the so called underdog theme. The

God fulfilled his promise to Abraham and the son’s of Israel had grown into a nation that was exceedingly numerous. However, pharaoh had forgotten Joseph, and began to impose hard physical labour on the Israelites. A boy named Moses (A Levite) was born during a decree from pharaoh to kill all of the baby Hebrew boys. Moses was delivered from death and was raised in the royal household. Moses fled to Midian after he killed an Egyptian taskmaster. After forty years of living in Midian God appeared to Moses in a burning bush and commanded him to return to Egypt to fulfill his promise to Abraham to deliver his people (The Israelites) to the promised land.
