Moses was the first great Israelite prophet. He is also one of the greatest leaders
in human history. Yet, had God read Moses’ resume before hiring him, God
would not have likely been impressed. Moses was born a slave. He has a stutter
and a temper. And the only work he did before God called him was caring for his
father-in-law’s sheep. Yet, Moses goes on to challenge the world’s most powerful
ruler, and lead a people from oppression to freedom. He brings down the Torah
and teaches the people the Ten Commandments. He is the protagonist of a story
told around the world to this very day.
