Moses at the Burning Bush

DAY 40 (Exodus 1-3): When we concluded Genesis, Abraham's grandson Jacob, whom God renamed Israel, had fled from famine in Canaan to settle with his twelve sons and their families in the fertile lands of Egypt. There they lived under the protection of Pharoah and Jacob's second youngest son Joseph, who, after he had been sold into slavery by his jealous brothers, had ascended to become governor over all of Egypt.
