Genesis 47:5-6
5) Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, "Your father and your brothers have come to you.
6) The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my cattle."
Exodus 1:8-11,
8) Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn‘t know Joseph.
9) He said to his people, "Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.
10) Come, let us deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies, and fight against us, and escape out of the land."
11) Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses.
Exodus 2:1-10
1) A man of the house of Levi went and took a daughter of Levi as his wife.
2) The woman conceived, and bore a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him three months.
3) When she could no longer hide him, she took a papyrus basket for him, and coated it with tar and with pitch. She put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river‘s bank.
4) His sister stood far off, to see what would be done to him.
5) Pharaoh‘s daughter came down to bathe at the river. Her maidens walked along by the riverside. She saw the basket among the reeds, and sent her handmaid to get it.
6) She opened it, and saw the child, and, behold, the baby cried. She had compassion on him, and said, "This is one of the Hebrews‘ children."
7) Then his sister said to Pharaoh‘s daughter, "Should I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?"
8) Pharaoh‘s daughter said to her, "Go." The maiden went and called the child‘s mother.
9) Pharaoh‘s daughter said to her, "Take this child away, and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." The woman took the child, and nursed it.
10) The child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh‘s daughter, and he became her son. She named him Moses, and said, "Because I drew him out of the water."
1 Kings 6:1
1) It happened in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon‘s reign over Israel, in the month Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of Yahweh.
Exodus 2:11-15
11) It happened in those days, when Moses had grown up, that he went out to his brothers, and looked at their burdens. He saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.
12) He looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no one, he killed the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
13) He went out the second day, and, behold, two men of the Hebrews were fighting with each other. He said to him who did the wrong, "Why do you strike your fellow?"
14) He said, "Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you plan to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian?" Moses was afraid, and said, "Surely this thing is known."
15) Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and lived in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
Hebrews 11:1-3
1) Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.
2) For by this, the elders obtained testimony.
3) By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made out of things which are visible.
Matthew 7:7-8
7) "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you.
8) For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
Romans 8:26-27
26) In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don‘t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can‘t be uttered.
27) He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit‘s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.
