Moses

Deities

Moses is the prophet who leads the Israelites out of Egypt, receives the law on Sinai, and dies within sight of the land he does not enter. The Exodus narrative gives him the staff that parts the sea, the water from the rock, and the bronze serpent; the Sinai chapters give him the tablets and the covenant.

A prophet, not a deity; no cult and no image. The planetary and elemental values are modern overlays.

he is a lawgiver, not a fixer. A working with Moses is about the rule and the exit, not about relief.

Modern Practice

Worked with for a way out of a place that has become a captivity, and for the rule that has to be written down before the group can move. The offering is a fast and a reading of the law the working is about.

Mythology Summary

Moses is the prophet who leads the Israelites out of Egypt, receives the law on Sinai, and dies within sight of the land he does not enter.
