SAMSON &  DELILAH:

Judges 16:4-6,15,17,19-22,30

[4]Afterward it happened that he loved a woman in the Valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.

[5]And the lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, “Entice him, and find out where his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred pieces of silver.”

[6]So Delilah said to Samson, “Please tell me where your great strength lies, and with what you may be bound to afflict you.”

[15]Then she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies. ”

[17]that he told her all his heart, and said to her, “No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother’s womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man.”

[19]Then she lulled him to sleep on her knees, and called for a man and had him shave off the seven locks of his head. Then she began to torment him, and his strength left him.

[20]And she said, “The Philistines are upon you, Samson!” So he awoke from his sleep, and said, “I will go out as before, at other times, and shake myself free!” But he did not know that the Lord had departed from him.

[21]Then the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. They bound him with bronze fetters, and he became a grinder in the prison.

[22]However, the hair of his head began to grow again after it had been shaven. Samson Dies with the Philistines

[30]Then Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines!” And he pushed with all his might, and the temple fell on the lords and all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than he had killed in his life.

DAVID & BATHSHEBA:

2 Samuel 11:2,4-5,24,26-27

[2]Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold.

[4]Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house.

[5]And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, “I am with child.”

[24]The archers shot from the wall at your servants; and some of the king’s servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.”

[26]When the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.

[27]And when her mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.

AHAB & JEZEBEL:

1 Kings 21:4-6,14-15,17-19,23,25

[4]So Ahab went into his house sullen and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.” And he lay down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no food.

[5]But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, “Why is your spirit so sullen that you eat no food?”

[6]He said to her, “Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, ‘Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard for it.’ And he answered, ‘I will not give you my vineyard.’ ”

[14]Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, “Naboth has been stoned and is dead.”

[15]And it came to pass, when Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, that Jezebel said to Ahab, “Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead.”

[17]Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

[18]“Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who lives in Samaria. There he is, in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone down to take possession of it.

[19]You shall speak to him, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Have you murdered and also taken possession?” ’ And you shall speak to him, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord: “In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, dogs shall lick your blood, even yours.” ’ ”

[23]And concerning Jezebel the Lord also spoke, saying, ‘The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel.’

[25]But there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do wickedness in the sight of the Lord, because Jezebel his wife stirred him up.

ADAM & EVE:

Genesis 2:20-24

[20]So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.

[21]And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

[22]Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

[23]And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.”

[24]Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

ABRAM/ABRAHAM & SARI/SARAH

Genesis 12:11-14

[11]And it came to pass, when he was close to entering Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, “Indeed I know that you are a woman of beautiful countenance.

[12]Therefore it will happen, when the Egyptians see you, that they will say, ‘This is his wife’; and they will kill me, but they will let you live.

[13]Please say you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that I may live because of you.”

[14]So it was, when Abram came into Egypt, that the Egyptians saw the woman, that she was very beautiful.

Genesis 11:29,31

[29]Then Abram and Nahor took wives: the name of Abram’s wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor’s wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah.

[31]And Terah took his son Abram and his grandson Lot, the son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram’s wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran and dwelt there.

ISAAC & REBEKAH:

Genesis 24:2-4,16,37-38,51,53,57-58,60,65,67

[2]So Abraham said to the oldest servant of his house, who ruled over all that he had, “Please, put your hand under my thigh,

[3]and I will make you swear by the Lord, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell;

[4]but you shall go to my country and to my family, and take a wife for my son Isaac.”

[16]Now the young woman was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up.

[37]Now my master made me swear, saying, ‘You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell;

[38]but you shall go to my father’s house and to my family, and take a wife for my son.’

[51]Here is Rebekah before you; take her and go, and let her be your master’s son’s wife, as the Lord has spoken.”

[53]Then the servant brought out jewelry of silver, jewelry of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave precious things to her brother and to her mother.

[57]So they said, “We will call the young woman and ask her personally.”

[58]Then they called Rebekah and said to her, “Will you go with this man?” And she said, “I will go.”

[60]And they blessed Rebekah and said to her: “Our sister, may you become The mother of thousands of ten thousands; And may your descendants possess The gates of those who hate them.”

[65]for she had said to the servant, “Who is this man walking in the field to meet us?” The servant said, “It is my master.” So she took a veil and covered herself.

[67]Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent; and he took Rebekah and she became his wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.

Exodus 15:20-21

[20]Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

MIRIAM'S PUNISHMENT:

Numbers 12:1-5,9-12,14-15

[1]Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

[2]So they said, “Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us also?” And the Lord heard it.

[3](Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.)

[4]Suddenly the Lord said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, “Come out, you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!” So the three came out.

[5]Then the Lord came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward.

[9]So the anger of the Lord was aroused against them, and He departed.

[10]And when the cloud departed from above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.

[11]So Aaron said to Moses, “Oh, my lord! Please do not lay this sin on us, in which we have done foolishly and in which we have sinned.

[12]Please do not let her be as one dead, whose flesh is half consumed when he comes out of his mother’s womb!”

[14]Then the Lord said to Moses, “If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp seven days, and afterward she may be received again. ”

[15]So Miriam was shut out of the camp seven days, and the people did not journey till Miriam was brought in again.

MOSES & THE TRANSFIGURATION:

Matthew 17:1-3,5,8-9

[1]Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves;

[2]and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.

[3]And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him.

[5]While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and suddenly a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!”

[8]When they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only.

[9]Now as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Tell the vision to no one until the Son of Man is risen from the dead.”

Mark 9:2-4,7-9

[2]Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them.

[3]His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

[4]And Elijah appeared to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

[7]And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!”

[8]Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.

[9]Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

Luke 9:28-32,34-36

[28]Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

[29]As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.

[30]And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,

[31]who appeared in glory and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

[32]But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; and when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men who stood with Him.

[34]While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud.

[35]And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!”

[36]When the voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.

MOSES: LIFE CHANGING DECISION:

Numbers 20: 1, 5, 7-8, 10-12

[1]Then the children of Israel, the whole congregation, came into the Wilderness of Zin in the first month, and the people stayed in Kadesh; and Miriam died there and was buried there.

[5]And why have you made us come up out of Egypt, to bring us to this evil place? It is not a place of grain or figs or vines or pomegranates; nor is there any water to drink.”

[7]Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,

[8]“Take the rod; you and your brother Aaron gather the congregation together. Speak to the rock before their eyes, and it will yield its water; thus you shall bring water for them out of the rock, and give drink to the congregation and their animals.”

[10]And Moses and Aaron gathered the assembly together before the rock; and he said to them, “Hear now, you rebels! Must we bring water for you out of this rock?”

[11]Then Moses lifted his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod; and water came out abundantly, and the congregation and their animals drank.

MOSES CANNOT ENTER THE PROMISED LAND:

Numbers 20: 12, 23, 25-28

[12]Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”

[23]And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in Mount Hor by the border of the land of Edom, saying:

[25]Take Aaron and Eleazar his son, and bring them up to Mount Hor;

[26]and strip Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; for Aaron shall be gathered to his people and die there.”

[27]So Moses did just as the Lord commanded, and they went up to Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.

[28]Moses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

Numbers 27:18,22-23

[18]And the Lord said to Moses: “Take Joshua the son of Nun with you, a man in whom is the Spirit, and lay your hand on him;

[22]So Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.

[23]And he laid his hands on him and inaugurated him, just as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses

Deuteronomy 32:44-45,48-49, 51-52

[44]So Moses came with Joshua the son of Nun and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people.

[45]Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel,

[48]Then the Lord spoke to Moses that very same day, saying:

[49]“Go up this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, across from Jericho; view the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel as a possession;

[51]because you trespassed against Me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Wilderness of Zin, because you did not hallow Me in the midst of the children of Israel.

[52]Yet you shall see the land before you, though you shall not go there, into the land which I am giving to the children of Israel.”

MOSES DIES:

Deuteronomy 34:4-8,10

[4]Then the Lord said to him, “This is the land of which I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, saying, ‘I will give it to your descendants.’ I have caused you to see it with your eyes, but you shall not cross over there.”

[5]So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord.

[6]And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor; but no one knows his grave to this day.

[7]Moses was one hundred and twenty years old when he died. His eyes were not dim nor his natural vigor diminished.

[8]And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days. So the days of weeping and mourning for Moses ended.

[10]But since then there has not arisen in Israel a prophet like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,

MOSES, PHARAOH, & RED SEA:

Exodus 14:2,4-5,8,13,16-17,21,26-28,31

[2]“Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon; you shall camp before it by the sea.

[4]Then I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.

[5]Now it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people; and they said, “Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?”

[8]And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went out with boldness.

[13]And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever.

[16]But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

[17]And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, his chariots, and his horsemen.

[21]Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.

[26]Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen.”

[27]And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and when the morning appeared, the sea returned to its full depth, while the Egyptians were fleeing into it. So the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

[28]Then theters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained.

[31]Thus Israel saw the great work which the Lord had done in Egypt; so the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord and His servant Moses.

Exodus 15:22, 25

22 So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea; then they went out into the Wilderness of Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness and found no water.

25 So he cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet.There He made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there He tested them.

Exodus 16:35

 And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.

MOSES & PHARAOH

Exodus 7:1,5-7,9-12

[1]So the Lord said to Moses: “See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.

[5]And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I stretch out My hand on Egypt and bring out the children of Israel from among them.”

[9]“When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, ‘Show a miracle for yourselves,’ then you shall say to Aaron, ‘Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent.’ ”

[10]So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just as the Lord commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

[11]But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.

[12]For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.

 THE PLAQUES:

BLOOD:

Exodus 7:17,20-21,23

[17]Thus says the Lord: “By this you shall know that I am the Lord. Behold, I will strike the waters which are in the river with the rod that is in my hand, and they shall be turned to blood.

[20]And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the Lord commanded. So he lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

[21]The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

[23]And Pharaoh turned and went into his house. Neither was his heart moved by this.

FROGS:

Exodus 8:1-2,6,8,13

[1]And the Lord spoke to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

[2]But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your territory with frogs.

[6]So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.

[8]Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, “Entreat the Lord that He may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to the Lord.”

[13]So the Lord did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields.

LICE:

Exodus 8:15-16,18-19

[15]But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not heed them, as the Lord had said. The Third Plague: Lice

[16]So the Lord said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt.’ ”

[18]Now the magicians so worked with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not. So there were lice on man and beast.

[19]Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” But Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, just as the Lord had said. 

FLIES:

Exodus 8:21,24,28,30-32

[21]Or else, if you will not let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and your servants, on your people and into your houses. The houses of the Egyptians shall be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they stand.

[24]And the Lord did so. Thick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, into his servants’ houses, and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.

[28]So Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to the Lord your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. Intercede for me.”

[30]So Moses went out from Pharaoh and entreated the Lord.

[31]And the Lord did according to the word of Moses; He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not one remained.

[32]But Pharaoh hardened his heart at this time also; neither would he let the people go.

LIVESTOCK:

Exodus 9:2-3,6-7

[2]For if you refuse to let them go, and still hold them,

[3]behold, the hand of the Lord will be on your cattle in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the oxen, and on the sheep—a very severe pestilence.

[6]So the Lord did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but of the livestock of the children of Israel, not one died.

[7]Then Pharaoh sent, and indeed, not even one of the livestock of the Israelites was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh became hard, and he did not let the people go. 

BOILS:

Exodus 9:8,10-12

[8]So the Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of ashes from a furnace, and let Moses scatter it toward the heavens in the sight of Pharaoh.

[10]Then they took ashes from the furnace and stood before Pharaoh, and Moses scattered them toward heaven. And they caused boils that break out in sores on man and beast.

[11]And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians and on all the Egyptians.

[12]But the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh; and he did not heed them, just as the Lord had spoken to Moses. 

HAIL & FIRE:

Exodus 9:17-18,23,25,27,34

[17]As yet you exalt yourself against My people in that you will not let them go.

[18]Behold, tomorrow about this time I will cause very heavy hail to rain down, such as has not been in Egypt since its founding until now.

[23]And Moses stretched out his rod toward heaven; and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire darted to the ground. And the Lord rained hail on the land of Egypt.

[25]And the hail struck throughout the whole land of Egypt, all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail struck every herb of the field and broke every tree of the field.

[27]And Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time. The Lord is righteous, and my people and I are wicked.

[34]And when Pharaoh saw that the rain, the hail, and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet more; and he hardened his heart, he and his servants.

LOCUST:

Exodus 10:12-13,15,19-20

[12]Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land—all that the hail has left.”

[13]So Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the Lord brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

[15]For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. So there remained nothing green on the trees or on the plants of the field throughout all the land of Egypt.

[19]And the Lord turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts away and blew them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the territory of Egypt.

[20]But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go. 

DARKNESS:

Exodus 10:21,23

[21]Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt.”

[23]They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

[27]But the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and her would not let them go.

DEATH OF FIRST BORN:

Exodus 11:4-6,10

[4]Then Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘About midnight I will go out into the midst of Egypt;

[5]and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the female servant who is behind the handmill, and all the firstborn of the animals.

[6]Then there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as was not like it before, nor shall be like it again.

[10]So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; and the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

MOSES LEADER OF ISRAELITES:

GOD'S CHOSEN:

Exodus 3:1,3-4,7,9-11

[1]Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

[3]Then Moses said, “I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn.”

[4]So when the Lord saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.”

[7]And the Lord said: “I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

[9]Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.

[10]Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt.”

[11]But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?”

Exodus 4:10,14-15,17

[10]Then Moses said to the Lord, “O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant; but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.”

[14]So the anger of the Lord was kindled against Moses, and He said: “Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well. And look, he is also coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.

[15]Now you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will teach you what you shall do.

[17]And you shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs.”

Exodus 12:50

Thus all the children of Israel did; as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

ACCEPTS LEADERSHIP ADVICE:

Exodus 18:5,7,13-15,17-19,24-26

[5]and Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness, where he was encamped at the mountain of God.

[7]So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, bowed down, and kissed him. And they asked each other about their well-being, and they went into the tent.

[13]And so it was, on the next day, that Moses sat to judge the people; and the people stood before Moses from morning until evening.

[14]So when Moses’ father-in-law saw all that he did for the people, he said, “What is this thing that you are doing for the people? Why do you alone sit, and all the people stand before you from morning until evening?”

[15]And Moses said to his father-in-law, “Because the people come to me to inquire of God.

[17]So Moses’ father-in-law said to him, “The thing that you do is not good.

[18]Both you and these people who are with you will surely wear yourselves out. For this thing is too much for you; you are not able to perform it by yourself.

[19]Listen now to my voice; I will give you counsel, and God will be with you: Stand before God for the people, so that you may bring the difficulties to God.

[24]So Moses heeded the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said.

[25]And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people: rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

[26]So they judged the people at all times; the hard cases they brought to Moses, but they judged every small case themselves.
