The Exodus and the Ten Commandments (feb 9, 1200 BC – jul 4, 1100 BC)
Description:
Some Hebrews left Canaan for Egypt, but there were way too many Hebrews in Egypt, and the Pharaoh feared they would take over, so he enslaved them all. Moses, a Hebrew, is ordered by God to save them, so Moses demands the Pharaoh free his people, but Pharaoh refuses. So, Moses sets a series of deadly plagues on Egypt, until the Pharaoh agrees. Then, Moses leads the Hebrews out of Egypt back to Canaan on a journey called the Exodus. During the Exodus, God gives Moses the Ten Commandments.Added to timeline:
