"“When Pharaoh heard of this, he tried to kill Moses, but Moses fled from Pharaoh and went to live in Midian, where he sat down by a well.”

The Deliverer Flees to Deliver, and Will Deliver Again    

From the royal palace in Egypt Moses rose up to defend and, possibly, deliver the people of Abraham now called the Hebrews. The Pharaoh that tried to kill Moses would have been his half-brother Thutmoses III who had reigned with Hatshepsut in his early years, before Hatshepsut squeezed Thutmoses III out of his position as pharaoh. Around 1483 Thutmoses III began a revolt against Hatshepsut and, at the same time, Moses killed the slave master. Thutmose III had public support and overthrew and killed Hatshepsut who was in her fifties in 1482.  And, Moses fled to Midian. Thutmose then reigned 1482-1450 BC. (Moses will return to the land of Egypt in 1447 BC)

Moses fled east into Midian when Pharaoh Thutmoses III tried to kill him. Moses lived among the Midianites who were a people who originated through the fourth son of Abraham and his second wife Keturah named Midian. The Midainites lived in the Sinai Peninsula on the east side and, also, on the other side of the Gulf of Aqaba in Arabia. At a well in Midian where Moses sat down to rest the seven daughters of a Midian priest (possibly a priest/king like Melchizedek) named Reuel (or, Jethro in 3:1 and 18:1) came to water their sheep. A group of shepherds attempted to drive the daughters away from the well, but Moses defended them from the shepherds and watered their sheep. Moses is seen acting as a deliver in Egypt before he fled and as a deliverer in Midian as soon as he arrives. Moses future will be as a deliverer for Abraham’s nation from Egypt.

Moses would spend the next forty years with the household of Reuel (Jethro) and he married the oldest daughter named Zipporah. For the next forty years Moses, who had been the crowned prince of Egypt, would labor as a shepherd in the wilderness of Midian.

  Christian Quote from Church History

"There are only two days on my calendar... today and the day of judgment."
- Martin Luther

Something to Ponder??
"Here is the cosmological proof of the existence of God – the design argument of Paley – updated and refurbished. The fine tuning of the universe provides prima facie evidence of deistic design. Take your choice: blind chance that requires multitudes of universes or design that requires only one.... Many scientists, when they admit their views, incline toward the teleological or design argument." - Ed Harrison (cosmologist)
 
Hebrew and Greek Word Study   Facts and Information

Bios (Gr) - Life (Eng) – bios is Greek word that means “life.” Our English word “life” is used to translate two different Greek words that refer to life, but identify two different aspects of life.  The Greek word zoe is translated “life” in verses like John 3:15-16 and John 6:33-35 (the bread of life). The Greek word bios appears in verses like:

  • Luke 15:30 – “But when this son of yours who has squandered your property (bios) with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’.”
  • 1 Timothy 2:2 –“ I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives (bios) in all godliness and holiness.”
  • 2 Timothy 2:4 – “No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian (or, “of this life” from bios) affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer.”
  • 1 John 2:16 – “For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life (bios)—comes not from the Father but from the world.”

Bios means “life extensively,” such as the period of life and the course of life. Bios also refers to how life is sustained, the means of living life, the manner of life and the good things of life

 

Since the discovery of the Tel Dan Stele with the text that mentions the royal “house of David,” many critics admit a man named David might have existed. But, the critics still insist that the biblical references to David are fictional. The critics must answer this question: Why would the Israelites, who followed the religion of a holy God, record a fictional account about one of their national heroes having marriage and family problems while he murdered and committed adultery? If they are going to make up a hero why present him and his son Solomon as failures in so many important areas?
