35. Understanding covenants with
Moses
What do you know about Moses and
covenants that God Made with him?
A covenant is an agreement between
two parties. There are two types of
covenants: conditional and
unconditional. A conditional or
bilateral covenant is an agreement
that is binding on both parties for its
fulfillment. Both parties agree to
fulfill certain conditions. If either
party fails to meet their
responsibilities, the covenant is
broken and neither party has to
fulfill the expectations of the
covenant. An unconditional or
unilateral covenant is an agreement
between two parties, but only one of
the two parties has to do something.
Nothing is required of the other

36. Understanding covenants with
Moses
The covenant with Abraham was the start of the story of the
Jews but the covenant that Moses mediated between God and
the Jewish people was the start of the Jewish nation.

37. Jews enslaved in Egypt 1300 BCE
Many Jewish people
were living in Egypt.
The pharaoh of Egypt
had made the Jewish
people become slaves.
Whenever Jews want
to remind themselves
of the character of
God they remember the
events of the Exodus
Moses was a Hebrew
(Jew) but was raised
Egyptian. He was told
by God to tell pharaoh
to let his people go

38. Moses Called by G-d to free the Jews
Pharaoh refused to let the Jews
go. So God sent ten plagues upon
Egypt but the Hebrews remained
unharmed

40. Moses Called by G-d to free the Jews
The Jews had 24 hrs to pack up everything and leave, this is known as The
Exodus. Moses was going to lead the Jewish nation to the promised land.
However after the Jews had left Pharaoh changed his mind and set after
the Jews to stop them. When Moses got to the Red Sea God parted it so
the people could cross. As pharaoh pursued them God closed the waters on
them and they drowned.

41. Moses Called by G-d to free the Jews
The Hebrews (Jews) made it
safely across and the thousands
that had followed Moses from
slavery in Egypt, found themselves
in the desert. On a day one of a
journey that would last 40 years in
search of the promised land.

42. Map of Moses route

43. Moses in the wilderness
After some time in the desert the Jewish people quickly forgot that the
God of Abraham had delivered them from slavery in Egypt. They began to
turn to other god and idols that were prevalent at the time. They created
for themselves a golden calf at the foot of Mount Sinai. This angered
Moses and God. it was at this point in Jewish history that God gives the 10
commandments (Mitzvot or Laws). Instructions for the Jewish nation.

46. Moses and the Ten Commandments
Exodus 20:2-17
2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of
slavery.
3 "You shall have no other gods before me.
4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above
or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or
worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children
for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6
but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my
commandments.
7 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not
hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.
8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do
all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you
shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant
or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days
the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he
rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it
holy.
12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the
LORD your God is giving you.
13 "You shall not murder.
14 "You shall not commit adultery.
15 "You shall not steal.

central to Jewish life and belief.

(commandments) that have to be
obeyed, the Ten Commandments
