feared they would soon outnumber

II was to save her baby from this
fate that the mother OF Moses, after
hiding him for three months. set

The Jews In Egypt.
No historical account, either sac
red or profane, has explained why
or how il happened that the people
ot Israel. some hundreds OF thou
sands Of them. were in Egypt at the
period Of which tho Bible speaks.
According to sacred legend, Abra-
ham. Isaac and Jacob. who were OF
Mesopotamian origin abraham
IN the country west OF the Jordan, in
Palestine. and IN the third genera
tlon the family emigrated to Egypt.
where Joseph (himself great
grandson OF Abraham), had already
become a great and powerful man.
We have record, then. OF a family
going to Egypt. But. 450 years
later, the lsraelitcs. a humorous peo-
pie, departed from that country
under the leadership OF Moses.
II is rather a puzzle. Presumably.
however. the explanation is that
these people were war captlves. In
those times II was the custom to
expatriate the Inhabitants OF a con-
duered country--i. O.. TO carry them
off in multitudes as slaves. Thus
the inhabitants OF Jerusalem were
carried off TO Babylon at a much
later period and forced TO work at
building the gigantic brick struc-
lures OF that city. The Bible tells us
that the 1sraelles In Egypt were
compelled to perform Just that kind
OF labor, and that on one occasion
they rebelled because they were re-
quired to make bricks (of the sun
dried sort, such as we call "adobe")
without straw for a binder.
That seems to have been the CON
dillon of the chosen people, at
the time OF which the sacred writ
ings speak, Theirs was forced, un-
paid labor. and that they were op-
pressed cruelty might go without
saying.
Tho Antediluvian Patriarchs.
1t was at the time of their deep
est depression in servitude that
Moses. the man destined 10 accom-

Hellopols.
We have the authority ~ sacred
legend for the statement not only
that Moses was divinely inspired
but that there was In him a GER
tain element Of the supernatural, in
asmuch as the soul of Seth had
passed into his body. He was, In a
word, a relncarnation OF Seth.
II is really surprising how many

The Phoenix was Il symbol OF the
sun.
Moses was of the tribe ot Lovi.
Much Information about him that is
not given In the Bible is found In the
works of I1scphus and other old j.
time historians. Hence it is learned
that his mother was named Jocha-
bed. and his father Amram, that his
horther Aaron was three years older
than he, and his sister Miriam a
halt grown girl at the time OF his
birth.

that he was the third son OF Adam

20 the Scriptural chronoloE Eists) in
the year 4042, B. c.. taking the
place of the murdered Abel. Tradi-
tion SAYS that ne invented Hebrew

Seth was tho ancestor Of all the
autcdluvian patrlarchs, VII % so
names. with the length OF the life ot
each one, the Bible gives, as fol-
lows: Seth 912 yeara; Enos, 905;
Cainan, 912; Mahalalcel, sos; Jared
962; Enoch, sos: Mcthuselah, 969.
Lamech, III; Noah, $50.
The above represent n direct line
from father to son. and so on. Thus
Methuselah, who lived longer than
any other Of the autediluvians-the
patriarchs that is to say who came
before the Deluge--was sixth In
descent from Seth. and Noah. his
garndson. was eighth.
Methuselah died one months be-.
fore tho Deluge.

to him, make thee an Ark Of

But there was no pitch In McsoDo-

yielded pitch. What Noah presum-
