Moses'+Birth+Story

Moses was born about 1525 B.C. in Egypt. The Pharaoh thought that the Hebrews would rise up from slavery. So he declared that all babies were to be thrown into the Nile, so the population would not grow. After Moses was born his mother was able to keep him hidden for three months, but as he grew so did her fear of him being found. Because of this Moses' mother placed him in a basket and left him on the banks of the Nile river. She also left Moses' sister, Miriam to stay and watch the baby. The Pharaoh's daughter found Moses one day while at the river and wanted to keep him. She realized right away that he was a Hebrew, and still desired to keep him. Miriam came out of the bushes and said she would find a nurse to take care of the baby. Miriam came back with her mother and she became Moses' nurse. Moses was the brought up in the Egyptian Court as the Princess' son. Even though he was not brought up as a normal Hebrew his mother taught him in private about their struggles and beliefs. //To see how the miracle of Moses' birth relates to the miracle of Buddha's birth, click here// //To see how the miracle of Moses' birth relates to the miracle of Jesus's birth, click here//
