The Hebrew people were welcome people by the Egyptian people, years later the Pharaoh’s heart became fearful the Hebrew would outnumber them. They were only doing what God told Adam and Eve, be fruit and multiply and if is completely natural for a husband and wife, to be intimate, love each other and little children increase their family. Moses’ mother’s name was Jochebed which is Hebrew for “Glory of Yahweh or the Glory of God’. Jochebed let the glory of God shine in her way, she obeyed His word rather than the law of the land and did not allow her beautiful son to be killed. When the Egyptian Pharaohs were frightened the Hebrews would outnumber them and someday start a rebellion, they gave a demanding order that Hebrew boys be thrown into the mighty Nile river, so that baby Hebrew boys would die.
Hebrew women are like many women, they have a desire to be a good wife and a good mother, and Jochebel was no different. H. Jochebel was God-fearing and respected the Lord more than the Egyptian king. When she gave birth to her son, she saw how beautiful her son Moses was beautiful. She knew God is against murder especially a newborn child. She took an act of faith and trusted the Lord, she made a basket that would float on water. She put the basket on the river Nile, let the basket go, and with a prayer to God, Lord maker of heaven, earth, mountain, oceans, and river stream took care of my beautiful son. An Egyptian princess saw the basket and saw a Hebrew boy in it, she fell in love and named him Mose. The princess wanted to raise Moses as her own, but could not nurse him. She asked a young Hebrew girl, little did the princess know the girl was Moses’ sister, so the sister showed the Egyptian, Jochebel and she was hired to feed her own son.
Jochebed gave her son more mother’s, while she nurses him, she talks and sings about God, spiritual food. Because of Jochebed’s teaching, Moses knew he was Hebrew but was raised a Pharaoh and about the God of Abraham. Christianity teaches that Moses is a major figure in the Bible, even if he grew up an Egyptian royalty, he knew God who was. Because Jochebed love for God and her will do His will, God used Moses to free himself from slavery and the Lord used him to write the first five books of the Bible, the Torah. Jochebed’s testimony is to teach your children about God, and you might save him and many others. God bless you all, the Lord Jesus loves you and so do I, Samuel J H
