04
Exodus 1 v 11
So the Egyptians forced
the Israelites to become
their slaves.

05

Tough slave masters made

them build the cities of
Pithom and Rameses.

06
Exodus 1 v 12-13
But despite their poor
treatment the Israelites
grew stronger and more
numerous.

07

Exodus 1 v 14
So the Egyptians brutally
forced them to work even
harder.

08
Exodus 1 v 15
The two midwives who
helped Hebrew women
deliver their babies were
called Shiphrah and Puah.

MY NOTES

09
Exodus 1 v 16
Pharaoh summoned them
and ordered that if a Hebrew
woman gave birth to a baby
boy they must kill it. Only
if the baby was a girl could
they let it live.

10

Exodus 1 v 17
But the midwives obeyed
God rather than Pharaoh
and let the baby boys live.

Exodus 1 v 18-19
Pharaoh summoned the
midwives to ask why the
baby boys were not killed.
The excuse they gave was
that the Hebrew women
were giving birth to baby
boys before they had time to
get to them.

11

12
Exodus 1 v 22
So Pharaoh gave orders
to his people that every
baby boy born to a Hebrew
woman must be thrown in
the River Nile.

13
Exodus 2 v 1
When a Hebrew man and
wife from the tribe of Levi
had a baby boy they hid him
away from the Egyptians for
three months.

MY NOTES

14

Exodus 1 v 2
But as the baby grew older
it became harder to keep
him hidden.

15
Exodus 1 v 3
So his mother came up with
an idea to keep her baby out
of sight. She got a basket
made from papyrus leaves
and covered it in tar and
pitch to make it waterproof.

16

She put the baby in the

basket and carried it down
to the River Nile. Her young
daughter Miriam helped her.

17
Exodus 1 v 4
She hid the basket in tall
bulrushes by the side of
the river. Miriam kept
watch over the baby from a
distance.

18
Exodus 1 v 5
Unexpectedly Pharoahs
daughter came down to the
river to bathe. She spotted
the basket and sent one of
her attendants to fetch it.

MY NOTES

19
Exodus 2 v 6
When she opened the
basket and saw the baby
was crying she felt sorry
for him. This is one of the
Hebrew babies, she said.

20
Exodus 2 v 7
Miriam, who had been
watching, came up to the
Princess. Shall I go and get
one of the Hebrew women
to nurse the baby for you?
she asked.
Yes, replied the princess.

21

Miriam ran to get her

mother. Take this baby and
nurse him for me, and I will
pay you, said the Princess.

22
So the mother looked after
her child until he was old
enough to be taken to the
Princess where he was
brought up as her son.

23
She named him Moses, (an
Egyptian word meaning
drawn out).
I drew him out of the water,
she told everyone.
