One day he was told that a child from the tribe of Bani Israel would be born and overthrow him. He then ordered that every male child to be born should be killed.Musa’s mom was scared for her new born baby so then Allah told her don’t be scared, and put the baby in the basket, and put it In the river, and make him one of our messengers. She put Musa in the river, and told her daughter, Maryam to follow it, and she saw that it went to phirouns palace, and she told her mom the good news. They needed a nurse to suckle baby musa, they couldn’t find anyone so musa’s mother came, and baby musa started drinking from it. When Musa grew up Musa’s mother could meet him. One day he saw two men fighting one was an Israelite the other one was an Egyptian so musa hit the Egyptian with his fist on his chest, musa did not intend to kill the man but the man died.

    The Lord raised up a deliverer by the name of Othneil. (Caleb’s younger brother). Othneil Helped the Israelites rise up and overtake Cushan-Rishathaim. The Lord gave his people forty years of peace. But again the Israelites “Did evil in the eyes of the Lord”. Because of their sin, the Lord gave them over to Eglon, the king of Moab. Joining up with Eglon, the Amalakites, and Ammonites came and attacked Israel. The Israelites were subject to the King of Moab for eighteen years. Israel cried out and this time God sent Ehud, a left handed Benjaminite. Ehud made a double- edged sword and placed the sheath on his right thigh under his clothes. He went before Eglon and presented him with a gift. He then told the king of a secret message that he had for him. The king wanted to be alone. So when they were, Ehud drew his sword and drove it through the king’s stomach. He locked the doors as he let and had time to escape to Seirah, where he blew a trumpet and led the Israelites to the land God had given them. After this they struck down ten thousand Moabites. The land had peace for 80…

    Life of Mansa Musa

    • 510 Words

    Mansa Musa is mostly remembered for his extravagant hajj, or pilgrimage, to Mecca with, according to the Arab historian al-Umari, 100 camel-loads of gold, each weighing 300 lbs.; 500 slaves, each carrying a 4 lb. gold staff; thousands of his subjects; as well as his senior wife, with her 500 attendants. With his lavish spending and generosity in Cairo and Mecca, he ran out of money and had to borrow at usurious rates of interest for the return trip. Al-Umari also states that Mansa Musa and his retinue "gave out so much gold that they depressed its value in Egypt and caused its value to fall."…

    Pharaoh’s original plan was not to kill the Hebrews but instead to keep their population under control. Pharaoh feared the Jews and thought they would side with Egypt’s enemies when faced with war. Pharaoh's dread constrained the Israelites into hard work. Surprisingly, the more the Jews were mistreated, the more children they had. Next, Pharaoh settles on the choice to kill the Jews yet not every one of them. Pharaoh tells his servants to toss every boy that is born into the Nile, yet let each girl live.…

    In this essay I am going to explore what happens in the book of Exodus in the Old Testament. I will also go on to further explain why this event is so significant for the Jewish people. This helps to explain why what happened in Exodus is still remembered and celebrated by those of Jewish faith today all over the world and why it is described as the most significant event in Jewish history. In an introduction to Christian theology, Towey discusses the importance of the Exodus “The subsequent account of the Exodus from Egypt by the Hebrews is arguably the focal point of all Jewish history”…

    Jonah Prophet Summary

    • 2213 Words
    • 9 Pages

    The narrative of Jonah offers quite a unique, diverse structure to the reader. The fundamental plotline of this particular book falls into a clean, simplistic four-phase arrangement, as presented in the outline above. The entire book of Jonah is rather compact in nature is nevertheless prophetic, while offering up a moral as well, causing considerable debate in terms of whether or not it is a parable (Hill and Walton 630; Breckner 30-31). The book, on the other hand, can also be viewed as satirical, and is, in essence, a book highlighting details on ways prophets should not behave. Jonah is primarily written in prose, although the second chapter is composed in the form of a psalm or poem in which the prophet was praying to Yahweh. The story flows pretty well for the author really allows one to grasp the message portrayed while being sure to incorporate a vast quantity of action and vivid, picturesque language throughout the work to keep the reader interested as they browse through the text. Moreover, in the…

    The narrative of Olaudah Equiano is truly a magnificent one. Not only does the reader get to see the world through Equiano's own personal experiences, we get to read a major autobiography that combined the form of a slave narrative with that of a spiritual conversion autobiography. Religion may be viewed as at the heart of the matter in Equiano's long, remarkable journey. Through Equiano's own experiences, the reader uncovers just how massive a role religion played in the part of his Narrative and in that of his own life. More specifically, we learn of how his religious conversion meant a type of freedom as momentous as his own independence from slavery. As one reads his tale, one learns just how dedicated he his to that of his Christian faith; from his constant narration of the scriptures to the way that Equiano feels a growing sense of empowerment from the biblical texts for the oppressed community. However, at the same time, one may question Equiano's own Christian piety. Did Equiano really seek to tell the tale of his soul's spiritual journey, did he really believe God would set him free or was he simply using religion as a ways of manipulating British and American readers to accept him as a credible narrator. Regardless of which of these facts is true, religion is quite possibly the defining feature of his life story.…

    Many terrorist organizations use their religious texts as justification for their acts of terrorism. People even go as far to say that God, as depicted in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible, encourages those acts as a way to defend their actions. While it is true that the Old Testament has evidence of God sending out his people to defend his word and his chosen people, it should not be taken as black and white as others would argue. It is important that we study the religious texts in their proper context. When these texts are not read in their proper textual and historical contexts they are manipulated and distorted. My God is a teacher of love and forgiveness and only uses violence as a last resort. This is more evident in the story of Moses and the release of the Israelite's from the Egyptians. The Israelite s were being held captive and tortured by the Egyptian Pharaoh and his people. They were forced to spend their days as slaves and lived in deplorable conditions and were beaten routinely by the Egyptians. Moses upset that his people were being treated this way sought guidance from God. God agreed to help Moses free his people. God first sent Moses to the Pharaoh to ask kindly for his people's release. The Pharaoh refused. Moses even tried to convince the Pharaoh with the threat of curses being placed on his people. The Pharaoh refused again. Then, after the curses were released, the Pharaoh still held strong and would not release the Israelite s He was willing to have his own people suffer just because he did not want to give up his power over the Israelite s He only relented when the final curse was released and the first born of the Egyptians, including the Pharaoh's, were killed. The Egyptian Pharaoh was given multiple opportunities to prevent his own people's suffering but decided instead that his power was more important.…

    Ancient Sudan (Nubia)

    Who are the Nubians? Nubians are people of northern Sudan and southern Egypt. Their history and traditions can be traced to the dawn of civilization. They settled first along the banks of the Nile from Aswan. Along the Nile, they developed one of the oldest and greatest civilizations in Africa until they lost their last kingdom five centuries ago. The Nubians remained as the main rivals to the homeland of Africa’s earliest black culture with a history that can be traced from 3800 B.C. onward through the monuments and artifacts. Ancient Nubia was a land of great natural wealth, gold mines, ebony, ivory and incense that its neighbors always prized. Sudan had remained the main homeland of Nubians through their long history, but many of its descendants is today’s Egypt. The majority of Nubians today is Sudanese with a population of slightly above 300,000 but are a minority in both countries. Nubians in both countries endured a lot of suffering from intentional overlooking to their history and culture. Historians have largely omitted Nubia, known today as Sudan, in favor of its splendid neighbor, Egypt simply of prejudice displayed by archaeologists. But Nubian art impacted Egyptian Art. Through Nubian history, culture, and its architecture, one can see how magnificent and powerful these group of people once were.…
