Essay / Research Paper Abstract
This 6 page paper discusses and explains the Call of Moses found in Exodus. Moses is introduced in a very concise and dramatic way and while there are years missing, we can say that Moses' life was divided into three 'forties': the first forty he spent as a prince in Pharaoh’s court, the second a shepherd in Midian, the third a king in Jeshurun. Moses was frightened when he saw the burning bush and heard his name called and he tried to avoid following the call of God by explaining how unqualified he was. The writer discusses the call from God and explains the disappointment and fear of Moses even later in his journey. The writer also discusses the fact that God, when He calls someone to complete a mission, has already prepared that person and this is true for Christians today as it was for Moses. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Moses is tending the sheep of his father-in-law when "the angel of the LORD appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the
bush was on fire it did not burn up. . . . When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the
bush, "Moses! Moses!" And Moses said, "Here I am."9 The Lord says: "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God
of Jacob." At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God."10 The Lord explains to Moses that He has seen the misery of His people
under the hands of Egypt and He has decided to rescue them and the Lord tells Moses that it is Moses who has been chosen to "bring my people the
