The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ
15
Pharaoh then ordered Mossa to take all the slaves of the Jewish race and lead them out of the city, and to found at a great distance from the capital another city and there to live with them.
16 Mossa told the Hebrew slaves that he had freed them in the name of his God, the God of Israel; he departed with them from the city and fronts the land of Egypt.
17 He led them into the land which they had formerly lost by their many sins; he gave them laws and advised them always to pray to the invisible Creator whose kindness is infinite.
18 After the death of the Prince Mossa the Israelites observed his laws rigorously; God too recompensed them for the evils to which they had been subjected in Egypt.
19 Their kingdom became the most powerful in all the world, their kings became illustrious on account of their treasures and peace reigned long among the people of Israel.
The fame of the riches of Israel was spread throughout the earth and the neighbouring nations envied them.
But God led the victorious armies of the Hebrews and the heathen dared not attack them.
