Was Moses Raised by Jews?
摩西是猶太人撫養長大的嗎?
紅人自畫像:我給大家講個故事,幾千年前埃及法老由于猶太人在埃及生活得很好而感到受威脅,下令殺死新出生的猶太男孩。有一位猶太母親將生下來的男孩偷偷地放在蘆葦叢中,正好被法老女兒發現了。善良的公主收養了這個男孩,取名為“摩西”,意為“從河里拉上來的孩子”。那個孩子就是我。
Now I’m going to tell you a story. Several thousand years ago, feeling threatened by the success of Jews living in Egypt, the Egyptian pharaoh gave orders that all the newly-born Jewish boys should be killed. However, a Jewish mother stealthily put her baby boy among the reeds, who was later found quite accidentally by pharaoh’s daughter. The kind-hearted princess adopted the boy and named him Moses, meaning “the man drawn out of the water”. and that boy was me.
超級訪問:古古看到圣經上摩西出埃及的故事時,感動得涕淚俱下。他決定拜訪一下這位令人尊敬的古人,于是他乘坐時空穿梭機來到公元前十世紀的巴勒斯坦,在幾千年前的夕陽中,他看到了這位白發長須的老人。
Gugu was so moved by the story of the exodus in the bible that he decided to pay a visit to the respectful hero. Then he took the time machine to ancient Palestine in 1000BC. At dusk, he saw the grey-haired and long-bearded man.
(G=Gugu M=Moses)
古古:老先生,我剛讀過您帶領苦難的猶太人返回故鄉的故事,您能講講嗎?
摩西:那天是1月14日,被稱為“逾越節”,我和我的族人開始了艱難的回鄉旅程。。。。。。
古古:在途中您得到了神的警喻,是嗎?
摩西:對,我們在西奈沙漠流浪了四十年,深切地感受到神的力量,那是唯一的真神“耶和華”。
古古:傳說有一天,人們突然發現您離開了營地,消失了,然后,可怕的暴風雨降臨了。
摩西:不錯。暴風雨后,我安全歸來,給我的族人帶來了神的警喻,那就是“十誡”。
古古:太偉大了!“十誡”后來成為了摩西律法的基礎,是吧?
摩西:是的。后來我們經過長途跋涉,來到了摩押地,那時,我已經是120歲的老人了。疲憊中,我們看見故鄉的山脈。
古古:偉大的領袖,艱辛的旅途。
摩西:后來我的族人生活就安定下來,我的心愿終于實現了。
G: Ssir, I’ve just red the story about your leading the suffering Jews back to your homeland. Could you talk about that?
M: It was on 14th January, the Passover festival, that my clansmen and I started our distressful journey back to our homeland…
G: And you got an oracle from god on the way, am I right?
M: Yeah. By then we had wandered in the desert of Sinai for 40 years and deeply sensed the great power of god. He is the only god-Yahweh.
G: It was said that one day you disappeared from the campsite, and then came a horrible storm.
M: That’s true. After the storm, I returned safe and sound , bringing with me god’s injunctions—the ten commandments.
G :Great! The ten commandments later became the basis of the mosaic law, right?
M: Yes. After a long and arduous journey, we finally got to Moab, and I was already 120years old. We all felt exhausted; then we saw the mountains of our homeland.
G: You are really a great leader! and that was indeed a hard journey!
M: After that, my clansmen settled down there. My dream finally came true.
