I am going to get out of order here slightly to review the lineage of Moses first. Please, read Ex 6:14-27, then pick up in chapter 5 again.

1.  From which one of the sons of Jacob were Moses and Aaron descended?

2.  From which of the sons of Levi were they descended?

3.  Who were the father and mother of Moses and Aaron?

4.  Name the sons of Aaron.

5.  Name the son of Eleazar.

Note: Remember these names. We will see them again. Return to the beginning of chapter 5.

6. What request did Moses and Aaron make of Pharaoh? 

7.  How did the Pharaoh make their labor harder?

8.  What was the Pharaoh’s reason for making it harder on them and mistreating them and to whom did the people complain?

9.  Did Moses carry the complaint to the Lord and did the Lord renew His promise?

10.  How did the people react to what Moses told them and his reassurance?

11.  What did God tell Moses to do at this point and what did Moses say?

12.  Who did God say would actually speak the words to Pharaoh that He was giving to Moses?

13.  Why did God say that Pharaoh would not listen?

14.  How old are Moses and Aaron when they take on this task?

18.  Besides the rivers where else was the blood?

19.  Could Pharaoh’s magicians do this?

20.  Describe the next plague.

21.  What did the Pharaoh ask Moses and Aaron to do about the frogs?

22.  Of course, with the relief, Pharaoh changed his mind, so what was the next plague?
