Pharaoh’s dreams
After dreaming of seven fat and sleek cows being eaten up by seven thin and bony cows, Pharaoh
had another dream in which seven ears of full and ripe com were being swallowed by seven ears of
thin and scorched com. Joseph explained that the two dreams carried the same message there
would be seven years of great harvest followed by seven years of famine. He suggested Pharaoh
put someone wise and insightful to be in charge of the country. Also, during the fruitful years, one
fifth of the crops should be collected from people and stored up for future use in the years of
famine. Under the leadership of Joseph, who had been appointed the Governor over all Egypt, not
only did Egypt survive the famine, but it also had more than enough food to sell to its neighbouring
countries.
1. Moses, Israelite adopted by the Egyptian princess, escaped from a murder he had committed and
lived a life of an ordinary shepherd

2. Moses saw on Mount Sinai that a bush was on fire but not burning up, so he moved towards it to
take a closer look. Suddenly, God said from the middle of the bush. I have indeed seen the misery
of my people in Egypt, so I have come down to rescue them from the Egyptians and to bring them
to a spacious land flowing with milk and honey. Now I am sending you to the king of Egypt, so that
you can lead my people out of his country

3. Since the king of Eygpt refused to do so, God struck Egypt with the ten plagues. Every time a
plague took place, the king promised to let the Israelites go so that in return the plague would
stop, However, soon after the plague was over, the king would take back his words and refuse to
let the Israelites go.

4. After nine plagues, God sent the last punishment. All the firstborn sons, including the firstborn son
of the king, and all the firstborn of the animals were killed. Grieved with such hearbreaking loss,
the king finally let the Israelites leave. Since then, the Israelites have started celebrating the
passover each year to commemorate God's delivering them from the hands of the Egyptians

5. The ten commandments are the laws that God proclaimed to the Israelites while they were living
in the wilderness. God wanted the Israelites to show to others they were God's chosen people by
obeying, his ten commandments. The first four commandments are related to religious duties,
whereas the last six are basic morals for people.

11. After the Israelites had left Egypt, the king changed his mind and sent armies to pursue them.
With the Red Sea in front of them and the Egyptian armies chasing them from behind, the
Israelites were terrified and began to blame Moses for bringing them there. Moses, however,
calmed down the crowd and said to them. Don’t be afraid, stand your ground, and you will see
what the Lord will do to save you today

12. God blocked the way of the Egyptians with a pillar of cloud, Then Moses held out his hand over
the sea, the water was divided by a strong wind. So the Israelites were able to walk through
the sea on dry ground with walls of water on both sides. The Egyptian armies that followed
also set foot on the dry ground, but were all swallowed up by the water from both sides when
Moses held out his hand over the sea again

13. With the encouragement given by God, Moses went beyond his limits of being cowardly and
tongue-tied, and became courageous enough to take on the responsibility of leading his fellow
Israelites out of Egypt to the Promised Land.

14. Passover means “go pass” and “take refuge” In the plague of the killing of the firstborn sons,
Moses instructed the Israelites to wipe blood of lamb on their door posts and above the doors
so the Angel of Death would pass their houses and not kill their firstborns inside. God called it
“Passover” and commanded the Israelites to commemorate it for all time to come. Since then,
the Israelites have been celebrating this festival annually till now.

15.Celebrating the Pawsover

Every Israelite household has to kill a one-year-old male sheep without defect, roast it, eat it
with unleavened bread and leave none of the food till the following morning. Taking
unleavened bread (bread without yeast) is to commemorate the Israelites hasty departure from
Egypt. In short, the festival is to commemorate God’s deliverance of his people
