This lesson covers Moses’ life as a prince in Egypt, from his birth and famous rescue from the Nile River through fleeing Egypt at age forty after murdering an Egyptian. He then helps Midianite strangers, and gains a wife. We consider two key aspects of Moses’ character that are held up in the New Testament, for Christians to imitate: he forsook the short-term pleasures of the world, motivated by a greater reward, and persevered because he "saw" the One who is unseen. We also note striking parallels between Moses and Jesus, the promised Prophet of Deuteronomy 18 who would be "like Moses."
