At the time of Moses' birth, Pharaoh decreed that all Hebrew baby boys should be killed to control the population of the Israelites, whom he perceived as a threat to his rule in Egypt. This decree led to the widespread fear and suffering among the Hebrew families. Moses' mother, Jochebed, defied this order by hiding him for three months before placing him in a basket on the Nile River, where he was eventually found by Pharaoh's daughter. This act set the stage for Moses' significant role in leading the Israelites out of slavery.
