Moses Grows Up in Pharaoh’s Palace
Moses was raised in the royal palace of Egypt, surrounded by wealth and privilege. He wore the finest clothes, ate the best food, and was given the best education available. As an adopted member of Pharaoh’s household, he learned the ways of Egyptian culture, politics, and leadership. Servants attended to his needs, and he lived in luxury, never having to worry about hunger or hardship.
Yet, despite all of this, Moses always felt like he didn’t quite belong. Something inside him told him that he was different from the other Egyptian royals. He couldn’t shake the feeling that his true identity lay elsewhere.
One day, while walking through the grand palace gardens, he caught sight of Hebrew slaves toiling under the scorching sun. He watched as they struggled, whipped and beaten by their overseers, their faces etched with exhaustion and pain. Seeing their suffering stirred something deep within him. He couldn’t understand why, but he felt an unexplainable connection to these oppressed people.
As time passed, Moses found himself increasingly troubled by what he witnessed. Why did he feel drawn to these slaves? Why did their pain affect him so much? Little did he know, the truth about his heritage would soon change the course of his life forever.
