His parents lived +in Egypt. Before his birth, Pharaoh, +king of Egypt, being fearful +of their increase, had given orders +to have every male infant of the +Hebrews murdered. The father +and mother of Moses were Hebrews, +and, like other parents, they +loved their child too much to have +him injured. Besides, they thought +they saw something very promising +in his appearance, as if he would +make a great and good man, if he +were rightly trained: they therefore +kept him hid three months.</p> + +<p>When they could hide him no +longer, his mother, Jochebed, made +an ark or chest of bulrushes, and<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</a></span> +having pitched it that it might be +water proof, she put Moses into it, +and laid it near the banks of the +river Nile, and prayed to God for +the safety of her child.</p> + +<p>He had not lain long in this condition, +when Pharaoh's daughter, +coming to wash, observed the ark, +and directed one of her maids to +fetch it; and opening it, she found +the child. She was struck with +the beauty of the babe, and was affected +at its weeping; for the poor +child cried, being separated from +its mother: supposing it to be one +of the Hebrews' children, the princess +resolved to bring it up as a +child of her own.</p> + +<div class="figcenter bord" style="width: 250px;"> + <a name="p004-illus.jpg" id="p004-illus.jpg"></a> + <img src="images/p004-illus.jpg" width="250" height="173" alt="Finding the baby" title="" /> +</div> + +<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</a></span>Miriam, the sister of Moses, then +about ten or twelve years of age, +who waited near by, asked Pharaoh's +daughter if she might not find a +nurse for her, and being allowed to +do it, she called Jochebed, the child's +mother.

His parents lived in +Egypt. Before his birth, Pharaoh, king of Egypt, being fearful of +their increase, had given orders to have every male infant of the +Hebrews murdered. The father and mother of Moses were Hebrews, and, +like other parents, they loved their child too much to have him +injured. Besides, they thought they saw something very promising in +his appearance, as if he would make a great and good man, if he were +rightly trained: they therefore kept him hid three months. + +When they could hide him no longer, his mother, Jochebed, made an ark +or chest of bulrushes, and having pitched it that it might be water +proof, she put Moses into it, and laid it near the banks of the river +Nile, and prayed to God for the safety of her child. + +He had not lain long in this condition, when Pharaoh's daughter, coming +to wash, observed the ark, and directed one of her maids to fetch it; +and opening it, she found the child. She was struck with the beauty of +the babe, and was affected at its weeping; for the poor child cried, +being separated from its mother: supposing it to be one of the Hebrews' +children, the princess resolved to bring it up as a child of her own. + +[Illustration] + +Miriam, the sister of Moses, then about ten or twelve years of age, +who waited near by, asked Pharaoh's daughter if she might not find a +nurse for her, and being allowed to do it, she called Jochebed, the +child's mother. Thus her prayer was answered, and she had the care of +the child besides. + +He was named _Moses_, which signifies being taken out of the water. He +was educated in all the learning of the Egyptians, and was treated in +all respects as if he were the son of the princess. + +After he became of age, while walking forth one day, he observed with +indignation the oppression of his brethren; and seeing an Egyptian +smiting a Hebrew, he became so excited, that he interfered, and killed +the Egyptian. Fearful of the consequences of this rash act, he fled +into the land of Midian, where he became a shepherd. + +As Moses led his flocks one day near to the north or west side of Mount +Sinai, the Lord appeared to him in a bush, burning but not consumed. +Moses was astonished at the sight, and went near to see the miracle. + +[Illustration] + +And the Lord spoke to him out of the bush, and told him to put off his +shoes before he came any nearer, as the spot was sacred on account of +the presence of God. We should never go into the presence of God, or +engage in his worship, without being solemn and attentive. + +God then declared himself to Moses to be the God of Abraham, Isaac, +and Jacob, and told him that, on account of the promise he had made, +and in view of what his oppressed people suffered from the cruel +Egyptians, he now intended to deliver them, and bring them into +Canaan, and would make Moses the instrument of this. + +The Hebrews, at the command of God, and under the direction of Moses, +left Egypt at last in great haste, and took their journey to the +south-east. Pharaoh and his people were soon sorry that they had +consented to let them go, and followed with a great army to bring +them back, and nearly overtook them on the west side of the Red Sea. + +[Illustration] + +The Hebrews were now afraid of the Egyptians, and not believing in God +as they should have done, they exclaimed against Moses for bringing +them out of Egypt. Moses prayed to the Lord for deliverance. That part +of the Red Sea where they now were, was not many miles broad. God told +Moses to stretch his rod over it. He did so, and God caused the waters +to be separated, so that a passage was made for the Hebrews through +the sea, and they arrived safe upon the other side. + +[Illustration] + +Pharaoh and the Egyptians, being resolved to overtake the Hebrews, if +possible, and carry them back to Egypt, pursued after them into the +passage which the Lord had made for the Hebrews in the sea. But God +knew how to preserve his people from these wicked and cruel Egyptians. +He caused them to meet with difficulties in the passage, and made the +way dark unto them. And when the Hebrews were all over, and the +Egyptians in the channel, God directed Moses to stretch his rod +towards the sea; and being moved by a strong wind which the Lord sent, +the waters of the sea suddenly returned to their former place, and +drowned the whole of them. + +[Illustration] + +In order to direct them on their way through the wilderness, God caused +a pillar of a cloud, or a cloud in the form of a pillar or column, +extending upwards toward heaven, to hover over the camp or tents of the +Hebrews. In the day-time it appeared as mist, and protected them from +the scorching sun. In the night, it seemed a pillar of fire, and gave +them light. When they encamped, it hovered above them over the +tabernacle; when they marched, it went before them. Forty years it +attended them, until they had arrived at the promised land. + +[Illustration] + +On the east side of the sea, Moses and the men, and Miriam and the +women of the Hebrews, sung a song of praise to God for their +miraculous deliverance.--We ought to thank God when he delivers us +from evil, and be afraid to sin against him as the Egyptians did. + +[Illustration] + +At Kadesh, the Hebrews murmured because there was no water for them +and their cattle. And Moses and Aaron his brother looked unto the +Lord to know what they should do. And he directed Moses unto a rock +which was there, to smite it with his rod, and it should give forth +water. And Moses did so, and water came out, and the people drank +thereof, and their cattle also. + +The tabernacle, which was built for the worship of God in the +wilderness, was finished, and Moses, at the command of God, +consecrated Aaron and his sons to the office of priests, and dedicated +the tabernacle with all its vessels. It was the business of the +priests to take the oversight of the tabernacle and all the furniture; +they slew, burnt, and poured out the blood of the sacrifices; they put +the shew-bread on the golden table; they offered the incense; they +blew the silver trumpets; they supplied with oil, and lighted and +snuffed the sacred lamps, and took down and set up the tabernacle. + +[Illustration] + +Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, and other chiefs of the congregation, +envying the authority of Moses and Aaron, formed a party against them. +They haughtily upbraided Moses and Aaron as taking too much upon them. +Moses replied that they were too arrogant to find fault with what God +had ordered, and that the next day the Lord would show whom he +allowed to officiate in the high priesthood. He advised Korah with his +associates to appear with their censers full of incense to stand the +trial. They did so, and put sacred fire into their censers. God +ordered Moses and Aaron to separate themselves from them, that he +might destroy them instantly. They did so; and the Lord caused the +earth to open and swallow up alive Korah, Dathan, Abiram, and all +their families. Thus were these wicked men, and those who adhered to +them, destroyed for their arrogance and impiety. + +[Illustration] + +In the eleventh month of the fortieth year after the coming out of +Egypt, Moses made a long discourse to the people, exhorting them to be +faithful in the service of God, and warning them of the judgments +which would be sent upon them if they departed from him. + +At the beginning of the twelfth month, Moses ascended Mount Nebo, +where he obtained a view of the land of Canaan. And there Moses the +servant of the Lord died; and the children of Israel wept for Moses in +the plain of Moab thirty days.--May we be good and faithful like this +great man. Then not only our friends, but God will love us, and when +we die, he will take us home to glory. + + + + + NEW AND AMUSING + TOYS, + Published by RUFUS MERRILL & CO. + CONCORD, N.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5.
