camped at Mount Sinai.
- God called Moses to the top of the mountain and gave
him the 10 commandments - basic laws for the people
since they had been enslaved for so long

days and 40 nights. God gave him plans for the
tabernacle nd offerings. When he was finished,
God gave him the tablets of stone.
- The people had been impatient and begged Moses'
brother Aaron for something to worship, so he took
gold from the people and made a golden can.

tablets and burned the golden calf in the fire. Later God
instructed Moses to create new tablets.
- 6. JOSEPH
- Joseph is the son of Jacob. He was favored by his
father, and received a coat of many colors from his
father, which made his brothers jealous, including his
dreams that he dreamt his brothers would be bowing
down to him.
- His brothers then decided to deceive their
father by throwing Joseph into a ditch and
setting it up as if a wild animal had attacked
him.
- Joseph was instead sold to people going to
Egypt, and later Potiphar, assistant to
Pharaoh.
- Potiphar's wife lied about Joseph and got him thrown
into jail, but the Lord was with him. Joseph
interpreted dreams of the people and became
known for it.
- Pharaoh was looking for someone to interpret his
dream, so he called for Joseph to help him. He said
there would be 7 years of good before 7 years of
famine.

and when the famine came everybody came
to Egypt to buy grain from them. Pharaoh
was impressed and put him in charge.

to go fetch game for him so he can give him the
blessing, though Esau was out already, so Rebekah
