Moses is renowned as a great lawgiver, prophet, friend of God, and deliverer of his people. The events of his life, spanning four books of the Bible, resound throughout Scripture. In this epic undertaking, James M. Boice delves into the narrative to uncover its rich meaning and gospel application to our lives today. We can learn a lot from Moses about faithfulness, prayerfulness, meekness, and good leadership; we can even learn from his sins and failure! But Boice shows how we can also look beyond Moses and the Israelites to the awesome power of God.

In order to understand our ancient history described by Moses in the Bible we need to, not only look at various interpreted Hebrew words for texts but also look at similar histories from other ancient descriptions and look for a comparison of content. That is exactly what this book does.
