The Bible tells us that “the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend” (Exodus 33:11). Born into captivity in Egypt, Moses was hidden among the bulrushes of the Nile River to escape the sentence of death upon Hebrew infants. Discovered by the Pharoah's daughter, he was adopted by her and brought up in the royal palace.

The Lord, however, would later instruct Moses to lead his people the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, across the Red Sea, and into the Sinai Desert. And it was on Mount Sinai, amid thunder and lightning, fire and clouds of smoke, that the Lord would speak to Moses and reveal the Ten Commandments, which were “written with the finger of God” (Exodus 31:18) upon two tablets of stone. After wandering with his people in the desert for forty years, Moses would finally die on Mount Nebo, within sight of Canaan, the Promised Land. Award-winning author, Demi, recounts the dramatic story of Moses—prophet, liberator, and lawgiver to his people the Israelites.
