Noah, which changed how they saw themselves as individuals and how they contributed to their society. This was expressed in the Bible, and has been retold numerous times, most recently in movies such as The Ten Commandments, Prince of Egypt, Noah and Exodus: Gods and Kings. When God came to Moses, Moses initially resisted the role as leader. With the 10 plagues he brought upon Egypt, God showed Moses his power he had and Moses eventually embraced the role of a leader to his people.…

Passover is the biggest feast of the Jews. It has its origins in Exodus. God gave ten disasters to Egypt to make Egypt released the Hebrew slaves from Egypt. Primary disasters was that every water of rivers and brooks changed to blood. The second disaster was a herd of frogs. Egyptians suffered from frogs. The third disaster was louses.

Artifact Report The Exodus is an important event, not just as a historical view, but for a religious one as well. For something as significant as it is, there is very little evidence to support the claim; which is referenced in the bible. An event which freed thousands of slaves from the hands of Egypt, summoned plagues, parted a sea, and drowned an army. However, if you were a superior nation, ruling as a god, and lost nearly everything to a slave revolt, would you want to document your losses?…

In Exodus 33:12-16, a new side of Moses is visible where he is actively accepting his duty to be the mediator between God and His people. There is also a shift in Moses’ and God’s interaction. Moses begins taking more control of the conversation by professing his thoughts on the Israelites and how they should be lead.

An Israelite’s Journal I cannot believe we escaped Egypt. I was sure I was going to die stacking bricks for Pharaoh’s tomb. How Moses convinced the Pharaoh to release us, I cannot fathom. Today was the most terrifying day of my life. Pharaoh sent out his men to retrieve us and enslave us again. We were hemmed by the Red Sea in front and the army behind. I, at the time, wondered what Moses would do because all he had done was cry out to G-d. Today I walked across the Red Sea on…
