1520 BC: The Royal Training of Moses

from Message to Kings - A Biblical History of Man · host Brett Heaston

Moses was born to a Levi named Amram. Amram is a slave in Egypt and his people, the Hebrews are impressed slave laborers. The Pharaoh of Egypt is fearful of the multiplying and numerous Hebrews. Instead of recruiting them and incorporating them into his empire, he enslaves them and abuses them. He enslaves them and orders the death of their boys at the time of Moses birth. Amram wisely places his child in a small ark and drifts him into the direction of Pharaoh's daughter, who can't help but adopt Pharaoh as her own. Moses is raised as royalty in the house of his enemy and lives there for forty years until he escapes to Midian. Josephus provides some questionable, but interesting history, of the missing years of Moses life.
