Musa, Great Leader

So much so, no man in history who was as admired as the prophet Moses, the prophets of the Jews. More than that, other than fame, also the number of adoring fans will no doubt continue to increase over time. Estimated Moses fame in the 13th century BC, during the time of Ramses II, and considered that the management of large-scale displacement of the Israelites from Egypt, died in 1237 BC. In the life of Moses - as described in the book of Exodus - a group of Jews who opposed it. But no less than five centuries of Moses, revered by Jews. Around the year 400 BC C. fame and reputation spread throughout Europe coincided with Christianity. Some centuries after Mohammed acknowledged Moses as a true prophet, and the rise of Islam, Moses also figure admired throughout the Islamic world (including Egypt). Now, after thirty-two centuries from the time of his life, Moses, revered by Jews, Christians and Muslims alike, and even by people who do not believe in God. With the improvement of communication, it is probably more famous now than in the past.
Apart from fame, you can rely on the information on the life of Moses is not much. There was even speculation (though not accepted by most scientists) that Moses was really an Egyptian, because the smell of Egypt and his name is not Jewish. (The name of Moses means "son" or "children", and is widely used as part of a batch of the pharaoh. The Old Testament contains stories of Moses, who almost did not make much sense to many stuffed with all the magic. The stories of Moses can be disastrous, Moses can become a snake assistants are examples of events outside the natural prevalence.
Things of this type of charge to people with the impossibility of which paved the way for people to believe that Moses was eighty years old at the time was berkesanggupan exodus, led the Jews through the desert in a period of not less than forty years. In fact, we know exactly what has been done successfully before the stories were buried in the bushes world of fairy tales.
Many parties who wish to make a reasonable interpretation of the treasures of the Gospel story, for example, ten of prohibition to cross the Red Sea. However, the most unpopular of the stories about the life of Moses in the Old Testament was a fairy tale that can be aligned with the mythological stories. The story of Moses in the vineyard to endless story is very similar to that of the Babylonians, and of Sargon of Akkad, the great king ruled about 2360-2305 BC.
In general, three main results related to the events of Moses. First, he considered a political figure who led the Jews to make large-scale displacement of Egypt. In this case, obviously he deserved the prize. Second, succeeded as a writer, first volume of the Gospel Volume Five (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy), which is often associated with the "Five Books of Moses" and make Torat Jews. This book includes Moses Code, a set of laws in which the behavior of the Jews in the Gospel, as the "Ten Commandments sacred" (Ten Commandments). From the point of the magnitude of impact and, in general, especially Torat Ten Commandments, the authors could not be classified definitely a great man who had a lasting influence. However, scholars generally agree that the Gospel of Moses is not the sole author of the book. The book was apparently written by several authors and most of its contents are not written before the death of Moses. There is the possibility of Moses played a role in the Union of Jewish customs and Jewish law outline, but no definitive proof of the extent and in what role did.
So many people think of Moses as the founder of Jewish monotheism. I do not think there are good reasons that might support this hypothesis. The only source of our information on the data of Moses in the Old Testament and the Old Testament clearly and undoubtedly related to Abraham as the founder of monotheism. Similarly, Jewish monotheism Still, it certainly can not disappear without a Moses, and no longer need to question Moses held a decisive role in the maintenance and dissemination. In this case, of course, is the important role of the largest after Christianity and Islam, the two major religions of the world so rooted in monotheism. The idea of a God who sincerely believes that Moses, which spread to most parts of the world.by Michael H. Hart,One hundred most influential figures in the history.
