2: 11-21 ôIt happened one day, when Moses was grown up, that he went to see his kinsmen. While he was watching their forced labour he also saw an Egyptian striking an Hebrew, one of his kinsmen. Looking this way and that and seeing no one in sight, he k
illed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand. On the following day he came back, and there were two Hebrews, fighting. He said the man who was in the wrong, What do you mean by hitting your kinsman? And who appointed you, the man retorted, to be prince ove
r us and judge? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian? Moses was frightened. Clearly that business has come to light, he thought. When Pharaoh heard of the matter, he tried to put Moses to death, but Moses fled from Pharaoh. He went from Me
dianite territory and sat down beside a well. Now there was a priest of \b \cf4 \ATXht71301 Midian\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 with seven daughters. They used to come to draw water and fill the troughs to water their father's flock. Some shepherds came and drove th
em away, but Moses sprang to their help and watered their flock. When they returned to their father Reuel, he said to them, Why are you back so early today? An Egyptian protected us from the shepherds, they said, and he even drew water for us and watered
the flock. And where is he? he asked his daughters. Why did you leave the man there? Ask him to eat with us. Moses agreed to stay on there with the man, who gave him his daughter. Zipporah in marriage.ö\par
Exodus 3: 1-5 ô\b \cf4 \ATXht71303 Moses\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 was looking after the flock of his father in law Jethro, the priest of \b \cf4 \ATXht71301 Midian\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 ; he led it to the far side of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. The \b \cf4 \ATXht70101 angel\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0
of Yahweh appeared to him in a flame blazing from the middle of a \b \cf4 \ATXht70204 bush\b0 \cf0 \ATXht0 . Moses looked; there was the bush blazing, but the bush was not being burnt up. When Yahweh saw him going across to look, God called to him from
the middle of the bush. Moses, Moses! he said. Here I am, he answered. Come no nearer, he said. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.ô\par
Exodus 13: 17-18 ôWhen Pharaoh had let the people go,... God led the people
