Story of Moses #233728

Probably Aaron was not told that such a child was there. In his great Joy he would have proclaimed it to all whom he met. What this babe's name was we are not told, but he probably had one before he was named Moses. When he was three months old, and his parents' fears were great, they could not hide him much longer, for the dear baby was beginning to know his father and mother and sister, and to express joy when they came to him.

He would be so far off there.
