Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Pharaoh order the killing of all male Hebrew infants in Exodus 2?+

According to Exodus 1:10, Pharaoh feared that the Hebrews were becoming too numerous and might side with Egypt's enemies in war. He implemented forced labor and infanticide as methods to control their population and prevent a potential rebellion.

How long did Moses live in Midian before returning to Egypt?+

Exodus 2 does not specify the exact duration of Moses's time in Midian. However, later biblical accounts indicate he lived there for many years, tending Jethro's flocks, before God called him through the burning bush to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt.

What was the significance of Miriam's role in saving Moses?+

Miriam's quick thinking and initiative in offering to find a Hebrew woman to nurse the baby ensured that Moses remained with his own mother, Jochebed, for his early years.
