SHEMOT Pharaoh ordered the Hebrew midwives Shifra and Pua to kill all males born. He sends His people to throw the Hebrew babies into the Nile. Iojeved, Levi's daughter, and her husband Amram have a son. The boy is placed in a basket in the river while his sister, Miriam, watches from afar. Pharaoh's daughter discovers the child, raises him as her own, and names him Moshe. As a young man, Moshe leaves the palace and recognizes the difficulties. He sees an Egyptian beating a Hebrew and kills the Egyptian. The next day sees two Jews fighting each other; they reveal what Moshe did the day before, thus forced to flee Egypt for Midian. There he rescues the daughters of Itró, marries one of them – Tzipora, and becomes the shepherd of his father-in-law's cattle.
