Who is Moses?

Accepted Answer

The greatest prophet and leader of the People of Israel, who led them out of Egypt and through whom God gave the Torah

Moses (Moshe Rabbeinu — Moses our Teacher) is considered the greatest prophet in Jewish history. Born in Egypt during the period of slavery, saved as a baby in a basket on the Nile, he was chosen by God to liberate the Israelites. He confronted Pharaoh, led the Exodus, split the Red Sea, received the Torah at Sinai, and guided the nation for 40 years in the desert. The Torah states that no prophet like Moses has ever arisen.
