[/quote] Moses could hardly be called a warlord, it was Jehovah that parted the Red sea that swallowed up Pharaoh and his army- and that was after HOW many warnings to let the Hebrews go free from bondage and slavery? Moses died in the wilderness, he was not to enter the Promised Land, where Joshua took the lead in subduing nations, so in what way was Moses a warlord? [/quote] Amos the Famous Ignoramus PhD here. Like you already admitted Mean Machine Moe drowned those poor Egyptian soldiers who were only defending themselves from the charging Hebrew grandmas, and toddlers, and killer sheep and fuzzy bunnies. So what if the Hebrews were held captive and enslaved to build Pharaoh's pyramids for 400 years, like they had something better to do out there in the middle of no where? :rockon: [/quote] The Hebrews ticked God off so many times, it was Moses who continually pleaded in their behalf, but yeah, building bricks until they could no longer stand would have been better than that manna in the wilderness, I mean, didn't they prefer the lashes of Pharaoh's whips? :spock::deadhorse: "Now the people became as men having something evil to complain about in the ears of Jehovah. When Jehovah got to hear it, then his anger grew hot, and a fire of Jehovah began to blaze against them and to consume some in the extremity of the camp. 2 When the people began to cry out to Moses, then he made supplication to Jehovah, and the fire sank down. 3 And the name of that place got to be called Tab;e·rah, because a fire of Jehovah had blazed against them. 4 And the mixed crowd that was in the midst of them expressed selfish longing, and the sons of Israel too began to weep again and say: “Who will give us meat to eat? 5 How we remember the fish that we used to eat in Egypt for nothing, the cucumbers and the watermelons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic! 6 But now our soul is dried away. Our eyes are on nothing at all except the manna."- Numbers 11:1-6 [/quote]
