What did Moses do?

What did Moses do?

• A. Led God's people out of slavery in Egypt.
• B. Received the 10 commandments.
• C. Built the temple in Jerusalem.
• D. Drowned in the sea.

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is recognizing Moses as the one who freed the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. This act, the Exodus, is the defining moment people remember about him—leading the people out of bondage and guiding them toward the Promised Land. While Moses did receive the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, that event is a separate part of his story, not the single action he’s most famous for. The other options mix in events associated with other figures or are simply incorrect for Moses: building the temple in Jerusalem was done by Solomon, not Moses; Moses did not drown in the sea.
