A major narrative from the Book of Exodus (Exodus 2:1–10) in the Bible. Pharaoh, fearing the rising power of the chosen people, ordered that all newborn male children be cast into the Nile. Jokebed, of the tribe of Levi, placed the child in a basket made of rushes and set it among the reeds. A maidservant of Pharaoh’s daughter, who was bathing nearby, discovered the child and presented him to her. Pharaoh’s daughter decided to entrust him to a wet nurse and later adopted him under the name Moses, which means “he who was saved from the waters” in Hebrew.
