The Israelites were living in captivity in Egypt. They were persecuted and abused. Pharaoh ordered that all Hebrew newborn boys be killed. Moses was born during this time. His mother hid him in a basket and Pharaoh’s daughter found him and raised him in the palace. God spoke to Moses through a burning bush and instructed him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt to Canaan, the “Promised Land.” It took a long time to get Pharaoh to allow the Israelites to leave. Before leaving, the first Passover was observed. God told Moses that He would pass through Egypt and that every Egyptian boy would die. All Israelites were to place the blood of a lamb on the door so their houses would be passed over and the boys would live. After that Pharaoh allowed them to go. Moses was the leader on the journey and along the way he performed miracles like parting the Red Sea, turning his staff to a serpent, and turning the river water to blood. He was given the Ten Commandments. The Israelites were guided by God in the form of a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. The journey was long, filled with good days, trials, and grumbling. Eventually, after 40 years in the wilderness, they made it. Moses saw the promised land and then died. He never actually made it there.

New Zealand is home to some of the world’s best, most natural tasting beef and lamb.Sheep farming did very well in the 1950s and 1960s. But in the 1980s, government subsidies were removed. Sheep farming became less profitable, and sheep numbers fell. Today, farmers have placed increased emphasis on breeding sheep for improved meat or wool production, to keep farms profitable.Sheep numbers have fallen, from 70 million in 1982 to about 29 million in 2014.

Isaac and Rebekah had twin boys, Jacob (Rebekah's favorite) and Esau (Isaac’s favorite). Jacob offered Esau stew in exchange for Esau’s birthright. Esau took the deal promising Jacob that he would turn over his rights as firstborn son. Isaac was old and blind. He planned to give his final blessing to his firstborn son Esau. Rebekah and Jacob tricked Isaac into giving the blessing to Jacob instead. Rebekah used goat skins to disguise Jacob and make Isaac think he was Esau. The plan worked. When Esau found out he was very angry and decided to kill Jacob. Rebekah overheard Esau’s plan and sent Jacob to her brother Laban’s. One night, Jacob dreamed about a stairway reaching to heaven, with angels going up and down. The Lord was standing before him and promised many descendants. At Laban’s, Jacob fell in love with Rachel. He agreed to work seven years for Laban to marry Rachel, his daughter. Rachel’s older sister, Leah was not married. Laban tricked Jacob into marrying Leah and forced Jacob to work seven more years to marry Rachel. While in Haran, Jacob had eleven sons. Rachel birthed one of them, Joseph--Jacob’s favorite. Jacob wanted to return to Canaan. Laban tried to stop them, but Jacob still left. Jacob and Esau reconciled. Rachel delivered a twelfth son to Jacob, Benjamin. Rachel died when the baby was born. Jacob returned to the home of his father. Isaac died later at the age of 180 and was buried by his sons, Jacob and Esau.
