Conclusion
From the Paper
"The author of Hebrews points out that Moses deserved honor because he was faithful to his house. Jesus, however, deserved more honor because He built that house. Moses was a servant in his house, but Jesus was a son in the house. The Jews had a very high opinion of their religion, and the author was trying to make the point that the Christian religion was as worthy of consideration as Judaism; not only that, but the priesthood of Christianity was even superior to the Jewish priesthood. The author is trying to explain that the relationship between Jesus and the gospel is the same as the relationship between Moses and the law. Both Moses and Jesus were faithful in fulfilling ancient promises. Moses fulfilled the earthly promise God made to Abram about having his own nation. Jesus, however, fulfilled the spiritual promise God made as far back as Eden, as Adam and Eve were being expelled. Jesus fulfilled forty centuries of spiritual promises through His faithfulness."

Abstract
This paper examines the story of Moses as told in the book of Exodus in the Old Testament. It looks at how Moses was the predominant Israelite in Exodus and the most influential and important of all Israelites at the time. It shows how through God's command, Moses persuaded the Israelites to follow God and in return, God would deliver them from slavery and a life of suffering. It tells the story of Moses from his birth into slavery in Egypt in the Palace of the Pharaoh until he received God's covenant on Mount Sinai.
From the Paper
"Moses used his miracles to convince the influential Israelites that God had indeed sent him, and with the success of making believers out of the elders, Moses attempted to do the same with the Pharaoh; however, when Moses ordered the Pharaoh to let his people go, the Pharaoh responded with ignorance claiming that he knew no such Lord and would not let the people go because they were his servants. Moses became dismayed and asks the Lord why he continues to let the Israelites suffer; God assured Moses that he will drive them out of the Pharaoh?s land. Even when Aaron performed a miracle by turning his staff into a snake, the Pharaoh was not convinced."

Abstract
The paper relates that Robert Caro's book, "The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall ofnew York City", details Moses' personality and dealings with the political structure that allowed his meteoric rise and subsequent impact on New York and the nation as a whole. The paper then goes on to discuss the main points of Moses' life as chronicled in the book.
From the Paper
" Following Moses' rise from his early years to the age of 80, when he finally lost all power, Caro thoroughly dissects this developer, showing all his defects of arrogance, vanity, racism, scheming, egomania, and ruthlessness. Yet, this man, writes Caro, was the only one able at that time to mold New York. In the mid-twentieth century, notes Caro, (5) it was well known that the city was "ungovernable." Since the governmental powers had mostly devolved to its mayor, no political entity could govern the city or do more than "merely stay afloat in the maelstrom that had engulfed the vast metropolis"

Abstract
This paper will attempt to analyze the life and achievements of the figure of Moses. It will be seen that the Biblical account may be examined in light of the history of Egypt and the Middle East around the time that the exodus of the Jews is believed to have occurred. It will be argued that, although any account of Moses' life must be - in the terminology of one historian - "conjectural history", we may nonetheless perceive through the fog of scripture and history the outlines of the man behind the myth of Moses.

This paper focuses on the life of Moses, the circumstances surrounding his birth and his upbringing. The paper also focuses on how Moses guided the children of Israel and discusses the correlation between Moses and New Testament Faith.
From the Paper
"In any case, when the new king of Egypt came to power, he saw that the people of Israel were great and mightier than his own people. Therefore the king believed that he must "deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that , when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us and so get them up out of land." The Old Testament reports that with this declaration, the king of Egypt forced the people of Israel to take on the burdens of building for the Pharoah the treasure cities of Pithom and Raamses. However, the people of Israel continued to multiply and the Egyptians were angered by this. Eventually the people of Israel were enslaved by the Egyptians and their lives were made difficult. Finally, the King of Egypt ordered the midwives to kill the sons of Hebrew women. However, the midwives feared God and refused to kill the sons of Israel. The Pharoah odered "all his people, saying, every son that is born ye shall cast into the river, and ecery daughter ye shall save alive." "

Abstract
This paper looks at the accomplishments of Robert Moses who was appointed Head of the Parks Commissions of New York and Long Island in 1924. The author discusses how Moses' career was long and proud, even though at various points he had several opponents.
From the Paper
"?It was the scale of the thing ? nothing like this had ever been done in public recreation in America.? ?We thought he was nuts.? These were only two of the diverse reactions to the vision of Robert Moses right at the start. That vision occurred to him in the impossible years of the first decades of the 20th century, when only visionaries could have conceived of what he imagined. But today, there is no arguing the concrete fact that no man in the entire United States who had more to do with public works than he (The Atlantic Monthly 1945).
In the 1930s, 1940s and 1850s, he was king of the roads and the parks and the highways who forever transformed the urban landscape of the Big Apple through his public works projects."

From the Paper
"As Moses spoke his last words to the new nation of Israel, the disciplined ranks of battle-hardened soldiers gathered before him and waited for the command that would send them across the River Jordan at last. ?You have dwelt long enough,? said Moses, ?in this mountain?turn you, and take your journey. Behold, I have set the land before thee; go in and possess the land which the Lord swore unto your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them? (Deuteronomy, 1:6-7, 8). But Moses was not to follow his people across the River Jordan, for he spent his last moments of life with ?Yahweh? alone, the ?invisible deity who had been his master and his friend, his torturer and his comforter, for the last forty years.?

Moses and Odysseus, 2004.
A comparison of the leadership qualities of Moses and Odysseus.
1,200 words (approx. 4.8 pages), 2 sources, MLA, $ 41.95

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how, in the "Book of Exodus" in the Holy Bible, and in Homer?s "Odyssey", the leadership qualities of Moses and Odysseus are thoroughly demonstrated by their individual actions and reactions to particular circumstances in their lives. It shows how, with Moses, several examples of his leadership traits are connected to the Egyptians and to his own people, being the Israelites. With Odysseus, the best examples of his leadership qualities lie in his concern for his fellowman and the future of his family in Ithaca, comprised of Telemachus, his son, and Penelope, his good wife, who has waited more than twenty years for his return from the Trojan War.
From the Paper
"One of the first important incidents related in Exodus that demonstrates the leadership qualities of Moses concerns the time when he wandered out of the Egyptian palace and came upon a scene that opened his eyes to the fate of his fellow Israelites--?And it came to pass in those days when Moses was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren and looked on their burdens; and he saw an Egyptian smiting a Hebrew, one of his brethren? (2:11). In response to this act, Moses rescued a fellow Israelite from a beating and inflicted a kind of justice on the Egyptian that symbolized the worst excesses of the Egyptian monarchy. Thus, Moses exhibited one of the best attributes of leadership, being the saving of a fellow human being while putting his own life at risk for the sake of another."

The Biblical Story of Moses, 2006.
An overview of the life of Moses based on the Holy Bible.
3,515 words (approx. 14.1 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 98.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that the biography of Moses starts with the Holy Bible, where his life story is played out throughout Exodus, Numbers, Leviticus and Deuteronomy. The paper then relates the story of Moses beginning with when he was cast into the river as a baby to his possible one final glimpse of the "Promised Land" on Mount Nebo.
From the Paper
"The Holy Bible does not relate much about what happened to Moses after being saved from the river and adopted by Pharaoh's daughter. However, a single line from the New Testament offers the suggestion that he was initiated into the arcane and exotic mysteries of ancient Egypt, for he was taught "all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and in deeds" (Act, 7:22). Thus, Moses appears to have been a gifted student, but his heart and mind obviously rejected all of the tenets of Egyptian religion, based on a pantheon of gods
and goddesses instead of monotheism, being the belief in one all powerful God or creator."

The Laws of Moses and Hammurabi, 2004.
A comparative analysis of the ancient laws of Moses and Hammurabi.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how the laws of the ancient world demonstrate a consistency with the laws of the present and how they prove, without a doubt, that the challenges of the human condition have been and remain similar in scope and temptation. In particular, it looks at how this true of the laws of Moses and the laws of Hammurabi, even though the ways in which these two sets of laws differ are also very visible. It shows how Hammurabi is a comprehensive and practical canon set within the context of a real-world need for comprehensive laws of man, while the laws of Moses offer a generalized guideline of morality in the world of man as seen by God.
From the Paper
"The issue of judgment demonstrates very clearly the differences between the laws of Hammurabi and the laws of the Books of Moses, with regard to the real nature of the ways in which humanity fails. The former is a comprehensive edict of right and wrong doing while the later is a moral guidepost for believers in the lord. Within the Hammurabi text it becomes clear that the intent of the actor is absolutely unimportant, as the act of wrong doing, or presumable wrongdoing is the one and only reason for judgment and punishment, yet within the laws of Moses even the intent is punishable within the confines of faith and eternity."
