Moses' immediate goal was Mt. Horeb, called Mt. Sinai, where God had first revealed Himself to Moses.

This collection of instructions, read to and confirmed by the people, was called the Book of the Covenant. These were protected in a specially designed box called the Ark of the Covenant. All of the specific details were spoken through Moses by the God of the Israelites.

The Hebrews came to the sacred mountain encouraged by the power they sensed in Moses.

Under Moses's leadership, most of the land east of the Jordan was conquered and given to the tribes of Reuben and Gad and to half of the tribe of Menashe.

Summoned by God, Moses ascended the mountain and received the tablets of stone while the children of Israel heard the thundering forth of the Ten Commandments.

Moses, however, was not permitted to lead the children of Israel into Canaan, the Promised Land, because he had been disobedient to God during the period of wandering in the desert.

Inspired, the people agreed to the conditions of the Covenant (agreement made between people and God).

His regular meetings with God had fulfilled him in ways that even his fellow Israelites could detect. His face was always radiant when he exited any interview with his Almighty. Moses, 120 years old, died in the land of Moab and was buried opposite Bet Peor

Through forty years in the wilderness of Sinai, overcoming many obstacles, Moses led the horde of former slaves, shaping them into a nation. Many miracles happened along the way.

When the Israelites stopped in front of the Red Sea with the Egyptian soldiers at their heels, it was Moses' raised staff that parted the Red Sea so that they could cross.

Once they had safely crossed, the sea crashed down, drowning many of their pursuers.

When food supplies ran out, God sent down what was called "manna" (spiritual food) everyday for the nourishment of the Israelites.

Moses had to hear the Israelites complain about the food, the climate, and the slowness of their progress. Moses even had to hear the Israelites claim that Egypt had been better than this wilderness trip. When the people were in need of water, God told Moses to speak to a rock and water would spring from it.

Moses' character was apparently worn down because, instead of following directions, he struck the rock with his staff. That was to have lasting impact on Moses's final days.

With the help of his brother Aaron, Moses was able to hold together his ragtag band of exslaves for forty years.

Only a man with tremendous will, patience, compassion, humility, and great faith could have forged the bickering and scheming groups who constantly challenged his wisdom and authority into a nation.

Throughout the forty years Moses was in constant communication with his Lord, the God of Israel.

This God added to the Ten Commandments through Moses by giving a code of law regulating the social and religious lives of the people.
