When Moses grew up, he herded sheep in the hills outside Egypt. In those hills, he saw a burning bush and heard a voice. He believed it was God telling him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.

The Hebrew Bible says that God sent 10 plagues to trouble Egypt. The last plague killed all the first-born children, except for those Israelites who marked their doors with lamb’s blood. The plague convinced the pharaoh to let the Israelites leave Egypt.

On the way back to Canaan, Moses went to the top of

Mount Sinai

and received laws from God. These laws were known as the

Torah

, which became the first part of the Hebrew Bible.

After Joshua’s death, the Israelites looked to judges for leadership. Judges were usually military leaders who led one or two tribes.

D.

Eventually, the Israelites won the hilly region of Canaan, and the Canaanites kept the coastal areas. The Israelites built walled towns to protect themselves.
