Moses

BEING A HISTORY OF CAPILYA, MOSES AND CHINE, THE THREE GREAT LEADERS-FORTH OF THE FAITHISTS IN THE TIME OF LIKA, SON OF JEHOVIH.

Now whilst this was going on in Vind'yu, the Creator also labored through his angels in the land of Egupt, with Moses, of whom hear ye.

HISTORY OF MOSES OF EGUPT.

Mirah bore him a son, Amram, who took to wife Yokebed, sister-in-law to Kohath, and she bore him a son, who was Moses.

Before Moses' birth the loo'is perceived that he would be capable of the Father's voice, and they called unto God saying: In the next generation, behold, your*** son will be born.

But I will raise up a leader, Moses, amongst My chosen, and I will send him even into the house of the king, and the king should give him great learning; he should master all languages, and be capable of speaking with all My people.

Now at the time of the birth of Moses, there were in Egupt thirteen millions of inhabitants; and of these, four millions were Faithists (Israelites), more or less.

Now after some days, and when the search had been completed, and no way discovered as to the manner of the child's ingress, the king issued a decree commanding a thousand Israelitish male children to be put to death, Moses amongst the rest, unless the mother of the child, Moses, came and acknowledged as to the manner of ingress.

Now the truth of the matter was, the angels of Jehovih came to Yokebed and said: Thy son's name should be Moses, signifying, a leader-forth,7 for he should deliver the Israelites out of bondage.

Moses grew and became a large man, being a pure I'huan, copper-colored and of great strength.

And Pharaoh, having no son, bestowed his heart on Moses, and raised him as a prince, having provided him men of great learning to teach him.

Moses was master of many languages, and withal made acquainted with kings and queens and governors, far and near.

So Pharaoh made Moses embassador to the foreign kingdoms, in which capacity he served twelve years.

But because of the prejudice against him, for being of Israelitish blood, the court of Pharaoh importuned the king for his removal, and Moses was so removed from office under the king.

The king said to Moses: My son, this is a double infliction on me in my old days; in the first place, it is as a sword-thrust, to cut off my love to you*, lest you some day become king; and in the second place, it is hard for a Pharaoh to be dictated to by his own court.

Moses replied: Fear not, O king, that my love and your** can be severed.

Moses replied: For many days a great heaviness hath come upon me; it is as if the wind of heaven bore down on my heart, saying: Moses, Moses, lift up your* voice for your* people.

Moses answered: Until I have gone amongst them and ascertained their grievances, I know not how to answer you.

So Moses departed and traveled over the land of Egupt, and was four months absent, and returned unto Pharaoh.

And to him Moses related all the grievances of the Israelites; explaining the tasks put upon them; their denial before the courts; their forbiddance to education; and withal extolled them highly for being a peaceful and virtuous people.

But what can I do, O Moses?

Moses said: Neither know I, O king, what to do.

And Moses was in great trouble of soul; and after he waited a while for his thoughts to come to him, he said: O king, this night you and Leotonas should reason with me, for I feel it incumbent because of the pressure on my soul.

And Moses' ears were opened, and he heard the Voice of Jehovih (through His angels) saying:

Behold, O king, and you, Leotonas, and You, Moses, now is the beginning of My power on the face of the earth.

Moses, My son, you should take thy people out of the land of Egupt; and I will bestow upon them the lands of the ancients, even whither I will lead thee.

On the next day Moses walked out, going into the woods to be alone, for heavy trouble was upon him.

And an angel of Jehovih appeared in a flame of fire in a bush, calling: Moses, Moses, My son!

And Moses saw that the bush was not burnt, and he said: Here am I, and I heard Thy Voice.

Moses said: What wouldst Thou?

The Voice said: Go you once more amongst your*** people and say thou: I, Moses, am come to deliver you out of the land of Egupt, and into an inheritance which should be your own.

Moses said: My people will ask of me: By whose authority speakest thou?

So Moses and his brother, Aaron, traveled about in the land of Egupt, calling together Raban families,10 explaining to them, and urging the people to get ready and depart out of Egupt.

And the oracles of the Eguptians prophesied that when the Israelites were once out of the country they would unite with the kingdoms whereto Moses had been embassador, and then return and overpower the Eguptians.

And in order to stigmatize Moses they said he fled away from Pharaoh's palace because he had seen two men, and Eguptian and an Israelite, fighting, and that Moses slew the Eguptian and buried him in the sand.

Moses was of tender heart and he inquired of the Great Spirit, saying: Will ever a voice of justice speak in my behalf?

Jehovih, through his angel, answered Moses, saying: Suffer your* enemies to put on record what they will, for the time will surely come when the truth should be revealed unto men.

And it was against the law for any one to call a meeting of Israelites, or to incite them against servitude to the masters; for which reason Moses and Aaron violated the law of the land, nor dared any man to arrest them, because Moses bore with him the king's seal.

When Moses beheld these things he prayed to Jehovih for wisdom and strength; for thousands and thousands of the Israelites were becoming afflicted in the same way.

Jehovih answered Moses, saying: Because of the abundance of evil angels in this land, it is impossible for My chosen to dwell herein and escape affliction.

Moses explained this matter to the Israelites.

Jehovih said: Moses, you and your* brother should return to the king, for he is worried concerning you* and your* labors.

Moses visited the king, who was sick with a fever; and the king was on his divan at the fountain in the palace grounds, and the men servants were forcing water.

When the king saw it was Moses he raised up, rejoicing, and called Moses to come and sit with him.

And servants ran in and told Leotonas that Moses had returned, and Leotonas came also and rejoiced to see Moses.

Now whilst they were talking the king was overcome and fell in a faint, whereupon Moses raised him up and restored him; and then carried the king into the palace, in his arms carried he him.

Leotonas said: Moses, my son and brother, you should not more leave us alone?

Moses said: Alas, O king, save the princess, I have not studied them.

I love you, Moses, and delight in thy presence; but my kingdom concern''' me deeply.

Moses said: The Voice came to me, informing me of what you sayest, and then commanded me to come to you, for you wert ill with fever.

Moses said: Jehovih hath planned this migration; it cannot fail.

Moses said: What are the oracles to me?

The etymology of the Hebraic word, Moses, is A LEADER-FORTH, and has no reference to being drawn out of the water.

If so, why did Moses' mother put him in this most dangerous of places?

The Voice of Jehovih came to Moses, saying: Have the king give you* commissioners who should go in advance and examine the countries whither I will lead you*; and when the commissioners have returned, you should proclaim to My people what the commissioners say, and the people will be convinced, and rise up and follow thee.

So Moses asked the king for a commission of Eguptians, and the king appointed thirty-three men, and allotted to them seven months to accomplish the inspection; and he gave to the commission camels and asses to ride upon, and to carry food to eat on the journey.

Meanwhile, Moses sent Aaron around about through Egupt, to inform the people of the commission, and also as to how they should make their outfits.

And Aaron said unto the rab'bahs: Be you**** circumspect as to the outfits of our people; observing that they carry not away with them anything that is another's, even to a fraction; for thus hath Moses commanded me to say unto you.

When the commissioners returned and made their report, which was favorable, Moses had the report sent amongst the Israelites; and Moses added: For there be such, as, having little faith in Jehovih, will have faith in the words of the commissioners.

The Gods of the Eguptians were not idle, and they sent word by way of the oracles to the courtiers and nobles to the effect that Moses had persuaded the king to hand the kingdom over to the foreign nations, knowing the king had no son eligible to the throne.

The courtiers and nobles, therefore, importuned the king to choose one of two things: Either to banish Moses out of the country, and put aside all arrangements for the migration of the Israelites; or, on the other hand, to abdicate the throne in favor of Nu-ghan.

When the courtiers received this answer they said to one another: These are Moses' words, fashioned for the king's mouth.

Jehovih, through His angels, spake to Moses, saying: Now is thy time.

These, then, are Heads, the chief rab'bahs appointed by Moses, and the places in Egupt whence they were to depart from:

And Moses appointed the month Abib and the tenth day thereof, when all the people should start; and moreover, he said unto the Heads: You**** should see to it that the night before they start, even at the hour of sunset, and the moment thereof, every family should offer a lamb in sacrifice, and every man, and every woman, and every child that can speak, should covenant unto Jehovih in the blood of the lamb.

Thus went Aaron and Akad, bearing this message in secret to the Heads of the Houses of Israel, saying unto them: Thus saith Moses: This is the commandment of Jehovih, Who is Almighty!

And now, on the eve of success to the Israelites, the king of Egupt, being at the point of death, sent for Moses, and Moses went to him.

Moses said: What, then, should be done?

Moses replied: My people should march through Najaut and Arabenah; neither should the pestilence come upon them, for the hand of the Almighty is in this matter.

Leotonas, learning that Moses was with the king, went in to see him.

But, alas, these were his last words, for he laughed, and the blood burst through his heart, and he died then and there, even in Moses' arms.

Jehovih, through His angels, said unto Moses: When the body of the king is embalmed and put away, you should go quickly to your*** people; for he who come to the throne is under the voice of the Lord, Baal, and he will try to prevent the departure of MY chosen.

So, Moses left the capital and did as commanded.

Jehovih, through His angels, spake to Moses, saying: Go thou; take Aaron your* brother, and go before the king and plead your* cause.

Moses said: O Jehovih, You Almighty, why hast You said this unto me?

Then Moses went before Pharaoh, taking Aaron with him.

And Moses said: I am come to beseech you* to suffer my people to depart out of Egupt.

Then spake Moses, the power of Jehovih being upon him: Think not, O king, that bondage is for this world only; here doth not the matter end.

Moses said: I am not here to plead mine own cause O king, but my people's.

Moses replied: He who utter''' what an angel bid him is that angel's servant; he who utter''' a good truth hath spoken with Jehovih's voice.

Moses replied: I am as all good men who speak truth; all that is good, and all truth, are Jehovih's words.

The king said: Moses, Moses, you are mad!

Then Moses replied: I tell you, O king, there be two powers in heaven: that which is for Justice and Goodness, even Jehovih; and that which is for sin and death.

Moses said: Whether in this world or the next, you should yet call unto me to deliver thee from torments.

With that, Moses and Aaron saluted the king and departed.

And in this way the king put extra hardships upon the Israelites because he was angered at what Moses said.

Moses perceiving this, cried out unto Jehovih, saying: O why didst You send me before Pharaoh?

Jehovih said to Moses: Rebuke not thyself, for you hast done My commands.

Jehovih spoke to Moses, saying: Now will I show her philosophers a miracle in the air above the earth.

Moses sent with a herald this prophecy to the king, and he added thereto: Why hast you put more hardships on my people?

The king replied not to this, but silently put his officers to work, drilling and equipping his armies and collecting them together; the which, when Moses beheld it, he understood to be the sign, as the Great Spirit had previously said, when the cloud would appear.

And again Moses sent heralds to the king, saying: Consider now my words and be wise.

In thy heart you sayest: Moses is a fool!

The king answered not Moses; and it came to pass that Egupt was overspread with frogs and reptiles, in every particular even as Moses had prophesied.

Jehovih spake to Moses, saying: Moses, My son, look upon man and pity him, for he believe not in Me, though I multiply signs and omens continually, and give him prophecies without end.

Pharaoh was now stricken, but not unto repentance, for evil was in his heart, and he cursed Moses and the Israelites, and swore an oath to destroy Israel, man, woman and child, so that never more should there be one on the earth.

When Moses heard of this afterwards he rebuked Israel, saying: Because you* have accepted these things it will be said, you* borrowed them and begged them so as to despoil the Eguptians.

When they arrived near Sukkoth, Jehovih spake to Moses and Aaron, saying: Stand ye here for twelve days that you* may behold my people as they pass, and that you* in turn may be seen by them.

So Moses and Aaron pitched their tents by the way, on a high piece of ground, and remained there twelve days, and Moses showed himself before them, speaking and encouraging.

After this the Israelites passed through Etham, on the borders of the wilderness, and thence toward Migdol, near Baal-zephon, the place of the oracle of the God, Baal, and they encamped before Pi'hahiroth, where Moses commanded them to remain some days to rest.

The Israelites were wearied and foot-sore, and discovering that Pharaoh was after them, many of them complained and grumbled, saying: O Moses, why broughtest you us from home?

Moses rebuked them, saying: Profess you* to be Faithists but yet have not faith in Jehovih?

Jehovih spake to Moses, saying: They should behold the salvation of My hand; for the Eguptians who pursue them this day should pursue them not again forever.

Thus delivered Jehovih the Israelites out of Egupt; and Israel believed in Him and in Moses, his servant.

From the time Moses began to put on foot the migration of Israel until he reached Shakelmarath, was four years two hundred and seven days.

And Moses commanded the Levites to camp aside, and not to mix with the Israelites, and they obeyed him in all things; maintaining that they were the true descendents of Abraham.

And Moses made a song unto Jehovih, and Miriam, his sister sang it and played on the timbrel, and the women of Israel danced before Jehovih.

This, then, is the song of Moses:

Moses called together the Heads and the rab'bahs, privily, and spake before them, saying:

Jehovih said unto me: Moses, Moses, what I say unto you, say you unto the rab'bahs and unto the Heads; saying unto them: Not Moses, nor the Heads, nor the rab'bahs, brought you out of Egupt; you* were brought out by the Creator, Jehovih, Who is God of all, Captain of all, Head of all, Rab'bah of all.

But who is like unto you, Moses, My son; in miracles who can match you in the magnitude of your*** proceeding?

Moses said: I cried unto Jehovih, saying: How should it be with the square and at high noon?

And when it was night Moses and the rab'bahs and the Heads went away aside; placing sentinels that they might be alone.

And when they were thus prepared the light of Jehovih came upon Moses, and the books of the ancients were opened before him.

And after that the Heads were no longer called Heads, but Chief Rab'bahs; for Moses anointed them; by command of Jehovih he anointed them.

And in not many days Moses wrote the Levitican laws; for the inner temple of Jehovih was in spoken words only; but the outer temple was written.

But of all that Moses did, and taught, and how he labored with his own hands, many books might be written.

At the time Moses reached Shakelmarath, he was forty-four years old by the Hebrew sun, but by the Eguptian he was eighty-eight years old.

Thus end the history of Moses' deliverance of the Faithists out of Egupt.

Like Moses, Chine was of copper color, and very large, but his hair was red, like a fox, and he was bashful and of few words.

[Thus end the revelations of the three contemporary Sons of Jehovih, Capilya, Moses and Chine.]

KNOWN IN HEAVEN AS THE DAWN OF BON, AND ON EARTH AS THE CYCLE OF MOSES, CAPILYA AND CHINE!

So, My Son, God of Craoshivi, hath raised up unto you*, O Lika, three men, Capilya, and Chine, and Moses, the fruit of the sixth generation in the lands of their fathers; and they are of the Faithists in Me, holy men and wise.

And Capilya should deliver the Faithists of Vind'yu, and Chine should deliver the Faithists of Jaffeth, and Moses should deliver the Faithists of Egupt.

And this, also, should you put upon Moses and his people: He should lead his people westward; and their heirs after them should also go westward; yea, westward until they circumscribe the earth.

And it should come to pass that the Faithists of the children of Moses should find the Faithists of the children of Chine and the Faithists of the children of Capilya.

COVERING A PERIOD OF TWO THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED YEARS; THAT IS, FROM THE TIME OF ABRAHAM, AND BRAHMA, AND PO, AND EAWAHTAH, TO THE TIME OF MOSES, AND CHINE, AND CAPILYA.

This country, between the time of Abraham and Moses, or rather about one thousand years before Moses' time, was evidently the greatest centre of civilization and powerful kingdoms on the globe.

It was the emigration from this country that afterward made Egypt the greatest; though Persia continued to be great long after Moses' time.
