(17) Moses

 
Hundreds of years later,
a new pharaoh, who did not know Joseph,
worried that Israelites were becoming too great in numbers.
 
so he ordered all the Israelites new born baby boys to be killed
and put Israelites in hard labor.
 
Now there was a new born baby boy in the house of Levi.
 
The baby's parents hid him for 3 months but
baby was getting louder each day.
 
So she placed the baby in the basket and put it among the reeds
along the bank of the Nile.
 
and his sister kept her eyes on the basket.
 
Then pharaoh's daughter went down to the Nile to bathe.
She noticed the basket and opened it.
She saw the baby and she felt sorry for him.
 
so she kept him in the palace, as her son and
named him Moses, meaning
"I drew him out of the water."
