Baby from the Nile

In our last story, we finished the stories inspired by the book of Genesis and Joseph’s words of forgiveness that while his brothers meant to do evil, God means to do good. Now we will begin stories inspired by the book of Exodus. In this story, we will learn how the Israelites were prospering in Egypt, but a new king felt threatened by them and forced them into slavery and commanded that their baby boys be killed.

Exodus 1:8
Jacob's family thrived in Egypt, becoming a multitude. This made the new Pharaoh uneasy, fearing their strength. So, he enslaved them and treated them cruelly, but they endured and grew stronger. Pharaoh escalated his cruelty, ordering Hebrew baby boys to be killed. Yet, God intervened through brave women—the midwives, and Moses' mother and sister—who saved lives. Moses, hidden in a basket on the river, was found by Pharaoh's daughter. Raised in the palace, he became an Egyptian prince, destined for a pivotal role.
