Moses (Hebrew: Moshe) was an important Hebrew lawgiver, leader and prophet who was appointed by God to lead his people the Israelites out of slavery in Ancient Egypt. He is also recognized as the author of the first five books of the Bible (known collectively as the Pentateuch or the Torah): Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and most of Deuteronomy. Moses is not only important to Christians, but also to Jews and Muslims.

Early life
Moses, a Levite, was born in Egypt (see Ex. 2:1-2) to Amram and Jochebed (Exodus 6:20) and was the younger brother of Aaron and Miriam (1 Chronicles 6:3). His family lived in the region of Goshen in the Nile Delta, where, even under brutal slavery, the Israelites had grown to a great multitude that the Egyptians eventually viewed them as a national security threat (Exodus 1:12).

In exile in Midian
