\nProphet of the Old Testament<\/span>
\nMoses and Abraham are the two most famous figures in the Old Testament. The two greatest friends of God in ancient times.<\/span>
\nMoses was the liberator of the people of Israel.<\/span>
\nThe story of Moses is found in the second book of the Holy Bible, the Book of Exodus, one of the most beautiful and moving books in all of world literature. No good Christian should miss reading Exodus not just once but many times. Reading it will do great good for their soul.<\/span>
\nThe Book of Exodus tells of a pharaoh who disliked the Israelites who began to rule Egypt and issued a law ordering that every male child born must be killed. And one day, a beautiful boy was born from the tribe of Levi. His parents hid him so that the Pharaoh’s soldiers wouldn’t kill him, but since the child was crying and they could hear him from the street, his mother decided to put him in a basket, which she had lined with tar on the outside, and let it float on the waters of the Nile River.<\/span>
\nAnd it happened that the Pharaoh’s daughter went to bathe in the Nile River, and when she saw the basket above the water, she sent a swimmer to pull him out. And there she found the beautiful crying child. She took pity on him, and at that moment the child’s little sister, who was hiding in the bushes on the bank, watching, arrived and suggested that she find a woman to raise the child. The king’s daughter agreed, and the mother was called the child, whom the princess paid to raise the little one, whom she named Moses, which means \u00absaved from the waters.\u00bb Pharaoh’s daughter adopted Moses as a prince and had him educated in the king’s palace, where those who would become rulers of the nation were educated. This careful education served him well later in governing the people of Israel.<\/span>
\nWhen Moses grew up, one day he saw an Egyptian tormenting an Israelite, and in defending the Israelite, he seriously wounded the Egyptian. The king found out and was about to have him killed, so Moses fled into the desert.<\/span>
\nIn the desert, he found some shepherdesses who couldn’t water their flocks because some ruthless shepherds were preventing them. Since he was a good fighter, he defended them and allowed them to water their sheep. The girls told their father about this, and the good man summoned Moses and put him in charge of tending his flocks in the desert. He stayed there for seven years, dedicated to meditation and prayer, and that time was very useful to him because he was able to get to know the desert very well through which he would later lead the people of Israel.<\/span>
\nMoses married Zipporah, the daughter of the owner of the sheep, and by her he had two sons: Eliezer and Gerson.<\/span>
\nOne day while tending the sheep in the desert, Moses saw a pile of thorns burning in flames but not burning. Filled with curiosity, he approached to see what was happening, and a voice said to him: \u00abMoses, Moses, take off your sandals, for the place you are standing on is sacred.\u00bb<\/span>
\nMoses asked him: \u00abWho are you, Lord?\u00bb<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
