The Israelites were living in Egypt for some time before the new pharaoh decided to enslave them to weaken their power and numbers. It was a terrible time for the God’s chosen people, and was made even worse when Pharaoh decreed that any baby boy born to an Israelite should be killed. Jochebed, an Israelite slave, had a baby boy named Moses.
