| | Moses |
 | | Moses is important to Islam as being one of Muhammad's forerunners, bringing the same message to humans as Muhammad would be doing 2000 years later. | | | Moses was the messenger of a Koran, in the Arabic tongue (a piece of information which is strange considering that the his people did not understand Arabic, and in the Jewish traditions there are no indications of a holy book written in a language nobody could read or understand). | | | Moses is of great importance in Judaism and Christianity, and even if the two religions share the same stories, they emphasize slightly different aspects of him. |

| | Moses - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia |
| | Moses is given a vision of God to strengthen his own faith (Exodus 33:12-23; 34:1-35). | | | Moses gathered the people together to make the covenant (Exodus 24:1-8), and the nobles of Israel ate a covenant meal there before God (Exodus 24:11). | | | The traditional view of the Jewish church and of the Christian church, that Moses was a person and that the narrative with which his life-story is interwoven is real history, is in the main sustained by commentators and critics of all classes. |

| | Moses - Crystalinks |
| | Moses is an Egyptian name-element meaning "-gave birth to him" or "-formed him" and was usually combined with a theophoric element, as in "Ramose" which had the meaning "child of Ra" or "Ra formed him". | | | Moses is also regarded as a symbol of the law, and so he is presented in all three Gospel accounts of the Transfiguration in Matthew 17, Mark 9, and Luke 9, respectively. | | | In this way, Moses shares an exalted station with Abraham, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Jesus, Muhammad, the Bab, and the founder of the Baha'i Faith, Baha'u'llah. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Moses |
| | At Sinai the Ten Commandments are promulgated, Moses is made mediator between God and the people, and, during two periods of forty days each, he remains in concealment on the mount, receiving from God the multifarious enactments, by the observance of which Israel is to be moulded into a theocratic nation (cf. | | | On his first descent, he exhibits an all-consuming zeal for the purity of Divine worship, by causing to perish those who had indulged in the idolatrous orgies about the Golden Calf; on his second, he inspires the deepest awe because his face is emblazoned with luminous horns. | | | The miraculous water obtained from the rock Horeb, and the supply of the quails and manna, bespeak the marvellous faith of the great leader. |

| | Moses is born during the Jewish enslavement in Egypt, during a terrible period when Pharaoh decrees that all male Hebrew infants are to be drowned at birth. | | | The instant God's or Moses' presence is not manifest, the children of Israel revert to amoral, immoral, and sometimes idolatrous behavior. | | | Moses marries Tzipporah, one of the Midianite priest's daughters, and becomes the shepherd for his father-in-law's flock. |

| | Moses’ home training inculcated in him a love for God and some understanding of his life mission (cf. | | | The Lord had revealed Israel’s idolatry to Moses and had proposed to reject Israel and to carry out His purposes through him (vs. 7–10), but Moses proved his stature as a leader by graciously interceding in Israel’s behalf, and God spared them (vs. 11–14). | | | He had already passed the mark of "threescore years and ten" and was approaching "fourscore years" (Ps 90:9, 10), but with his great disappointment in mind, he prayed that God would teach him to "number" his days that he might apply his heart unto wisdom (v 12). |

Sinai at their own behest to hear the voice of the Lord. | | | The latter as Memefta is the worldly man par excellence, who speaks of the Hebrews as "Egypt's workforce" and almost enjoys the impudence of anyone who dares to challenge him. | | | The Hebrews are huddling against the blowing sands, now they look up and see the parted waters. |

| | Moses was also linked in the minds of many to the Fair's accounting scandal when it was revealed that all advance ticket sales, even for those sold for use in 1965, were booked as 1964 revenues, even though there seems to be little if any evidence directly linking him to this error. | | | And last, but certainly not least, planners need to discern what place is the automobile's and what place is designated the person's. | | | The fair was seen as an attempt by Moses and his cronies to relive their glory days of the 1939 New York World's Fair, rather than as a useful project for the 1960s. |
