God instructed Abram to leave his home with his wife, Sarai and his belongs and to go Canaan. God promised Abram and Sarai children. Abram obeyed God. A famine hit Canaan. Abram decided to go to Egypt, but was worried that the king of Egypt would want Sarai. He told Sarai to say she was his sister instead of his wife. Abram was correct. The king had Sarai brought to him and tried to pay Abram with gifts. Disease hit the king’s palace. The king knew God had sent the illness and sent Abram away. They returned to Canaan. God again promised Abram and Sarai children. They were 85 and still childless. Sarai had Hagar, her servant, deliver a child for her. His name was Ishmael. After his birth, God changed Abram’s and Sarai’s names to Abraham and Sarah. Time passed and three strangers visited Abraham. They said Sarah would give birth to a son. Sarah began to laugh. Hearing her laugh the men said “Is anything too hard for the Lord?” When Abraham was 100 years old, Sarah gave birth to a son, the child God had promised, named Isaac. Years later, the Lord told Abraham to take Isaac to a mountain and to offer him as a sacrifice to God. Abraham obeyed. As he was about to sacrifice Isaac, an angel of the Lord stopped him. God provided a ram and spared Isaac. Abraham’s faith had passed God’s test. Sarah died at age 127. Isaac grew up and married Rebekah.

The Israelites were living in captivity in Egypt. They were persecuted and abused. Pharaoh ordered that all Hebrew newborn boys be killed. Moses was born during this time. His mother hid him in a basket and Pharaoh’s daughter found him and raised him in the palace. God spoke to Moses through a burning bush and instructed him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt to Canaan, the “Promised Land.” It took a long time to get Pharaoh to allow the Israelites to leave. Before leaving, the first Passover was observed. God told Moses that He would pass through Egypt and that every Egyptian boy would die. All Israelites were to place the blood of a lamb on the door so their houses would be passed over and the boys would live. After that Pharaoh allowed them to go. Moses was the leader on the journey and along the way he performed miracles like parting the Red Sea, turning his staff to a serpent, and turning the river water to blood. He was given the Ten Commandments. The Israelites were guided by God in the form of a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. The journey was long, filled with good days, trials, and grumbling. Eventually, after 40 years in the wilderness, they made it. Moses saw the promised land and then died. He never actually made it there.
