A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife. Num 26:591Ch 23:12-14Exo 6:16-201Ch 6:1-3 The woman conceived and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months. Heb 11:23Act 7:20Psa 112:5 When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank. Exo 1:22Act 7:19Gen 6:14Isa 18:2Mat 2:16Mat 2:13Gen 11:3Gen 14:10 His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him. Num 26:59Exo 15:20Mic 6:4Num 20:1Num 12:1-15 Pharaoh’s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her servant to get it. Act 7:21Psa 12:5Psa 9:9Exo 8:20Psa 46:1Exo 7:15Pro 21:1Psa 76:10 She opened it, and saw the child, and behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.” 1Ki 8:501Pe 3:8Act 7:21Neh 1:11Psa 106:46Pro 21:1
Then his sister said to Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?” Exo 2:4Num 26:59Num 12:1Exo 15:20
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Go.” Isa 46:3-4Psa 27:10Exo 6:20Ezk 16:8
The young woman went and called the child’s mother. Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.”
The woman took the child, and nursed him. The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, 1 and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.” Act 7:21-22Heb 11:241Sa 1:20Gen 16:111Jn 3:1Gal 4:5Mat 1:21Gen 4:25
In those days, when Moses had grown up, he went out to his brothers and saw their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers. Heb 11:24-26Act 7:22-24Exo 1:11Luk 4:18Mat 11:28Exo 3:7Isa 58:6Exo 5:14 He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. Act 7:24-26
He went out the second day, and behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, “Why do you strike your fellow?” Act 7:26-281Co 6:7-8
He said, “Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?” Luk 12:14Mat 21:23Gen 19:9Gen 37:19-20Luk 19:14Psa 2:2-6Act 7:26-28Act 7:35
Moses was afraid, and said, “Surely this thing is known.” Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well. Act 7:29Heb 11:27Gen 24:11Gen 29:21Ki 19:1-31Ki 19:13-14Jhn 4:6Mat 10:23
Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. They came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father’s flock. Exo 3:1Gen 24:111Sa 9:11Gen 24:14-20Gen 29:6-10Gen 41:45Gen 14:18 The shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock. Gen 29:10Gen 21:25Exo 2:12Gen 26:15-22 When they came to Reuel, their father, he said, “How is it that you have returned so early today?” Exo 3:1Exo 4:18Num 10:29Exo 18:1-12Num 19:20
They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.” Gen 29:10Gen 50:11
He said to his daughters, “Where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.” Gen 31:54Gen 43:251Ti 5:10Gen 18:5Gen 19:2-3Gen 24:31-33Heb 13:2Job 31:32
Moses was content to dwell with the man. He gave Moses Zipporah, his daughter. Gen 31:38-40Heb 13:51Ti 6:6Exo 18:2-6Exo 2:10Exo 4:20-25Heb 11:25Jas 1:10 She bore a son, and he named him Gershom, 2 for he said, “I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land.” Act 7:29Heb 11:13-14Exo 22:211Ch 16:201Ch 29:15Psa 119:19Psa 39:121Ch 23:14-17
In the course of those many days, the king of Egypt died, and the children of Israel sighed because of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up to God because of the bondage. Gen 18:20-21Jas 5:4Exo 3:7-9Act 7:30Deu 26:6-7Exo 22:22-27Gen 16:11Isa 19:20 God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. Gen 26:3Psa 105:42Exo 6:5Gen 15:14-18Luk 1:72-73Psa 22:24Gen 26:24Psa 106:45 God saw the children of Israel, and God understood. Exo 4:31Psa 55:22Exo 3:7-8Luk 1:25Psa 1:62Sa 16:12Mat 7:231Sa 1:11
