What faith is.6. Without faith we cannot please God. 7. The examples of faithfulness in the fathers of old time. By faith Moses Moses is a central figure in the Old Testament, known for leading the Israelites out of Egypt. His faith is highlighted as a key aspect of his character. Faith, in this context, refers to a deep trust in God and His promises. Moses' faith is significant because it demonstrates reliance on God rather than on earthly power or status. This aligns with Hebrews 11:1, which defines faith as confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. when he was grown refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter Persons / Places / Events 1. MosesA central figure in the Old Testament, Moses was chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of Egyptian bondage. His life is marked by faith, leadership, and obedience to God. 2. Pharaoh’s Daughter The Egyptian princess who adopted Moses when he was a baby. Her act of compassion saved Moses from the decree that all Hebrew male infants be killed. 3. Egypt The land where the Israelites were enslaved. It represents a place of bondage and idolatry in the biblical account. 4. Faith A key theme in Hebrews 11, faith is described as the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not seen. Moses' actions are a testament to his faith in God. 5. Refusal Moses' decision to refuse his Egyptian identity signifies a pivotal moment of faith and identity in his life, choosing to align with God's people rather than the privileges of Egyptian royalty. Teaching Points Identity in ChristJust as Moses chose to identify with God's people, believers today are called to find their identity in Christ rather than in worldly status or achievements. The Cost of Faith Moses' refusal of his Egyptian identity came with significant personal cost. True faith often requires sacrifice and a willingness to forsake worldly gains for spiritual truths. Courageous Decisions Moses' decision was not easy, but it was necessary. Believers are encouraged to make courageous decisions that align with God's will, even when it means going against societal norms. Trust in God's Plan Moses trusted in God's greater plan for his life, even when it meant leaving behind comfort and security. Believers are called to trust in God's plan, knowing that His ways are higher than ours. Living by Faith Hebrews 11 highlights the importance of living by faith. Moses' life is an example of how faith can lead to extraordinary outcomes when we trust and obey God.(24) Come to years--i.e., grown up, "when he was full forty years old" (Acts 7:23). The words here used are taken from the Greek translation of Exodus 2:11, where we first read of Moses as openly Associating himself with his oppressed people. When Moses slew the Egyptian who was "smiting a Hebrew, one of his brethren," he in act "refused to be called a son of Pharaoh's daughter," and chose "to suffer Affliction with the people of God." (See Exodus 2:15.)Verses 24-26. - By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in (or, of) Egypt; for he had respect unto (literally, looked away to) the recompense of reward. As in the speech of Stephen (Acts 7.), so here, the narrative in Exodus is supplemented from tradition, such as is found also in Philo. Moses' refusal to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, i.e. his renunciation of his position in the court in order to associate himself with his oppressed fellow-countrymen, is not mentioned in the original history, though it is consistent with it, and indeed implied. St. Stephen further regards his taking the part of the Israelite against the Egyptian (Exodus 2:11-13) as a sign that he was already conscious of his mission, and hoped even then to rouse his countrymen to make a struggle for freedom. The reproach he subjected himself to by thus preferring the patriot's to the courtier's life is here called "the reproach of Christ." How so? Chrysostom takes the expression to mean only the same kind of reproach as Christ was afterwards subjected to, in respect of his being scorned, and his Divine mission disbelieved, by those whom he came to save. But, if the expression had been used with respect to Christian's suffering for the faith (as it is below, Hebrews 13:13), it would certainly imply more than this; viz. a participation in Christ's own reproach, not merely a reproach like his. (Cf. 2 Corinthians 1:5, τὰ παθήματα τοῦ Ξριστοῦ, and Colossians 1:24, τῶν θλίψεων τοῦ Ξριστοῦ, where there is the further idea expressed of Christ himself suffering in his members.) And such being the idea which the phrase in itself would at once convey to Christian readers, and especially as the very same is used below (Hebrews 13:13) with reference to Christians, it must surely be somehow involved in this passage. But how so, we ask again, in the case of Moses? To get at the idea of the phrase we must bear in mind the view of the Old and New Testaments being but two parts of one Divine dispensation. The Exodus was thus not only typical of the deliverance through Christ, but also a step towards it, a preparation for it, a link in the divinely ordered chain of events leading up to the great redemption. Hence, in the first place, the reproach endured by Moses in furtherance of the Exodus may be regarded as endured at any rate for the sake of Christ, i.e. in his cause whose coming was the end and purpose of the whole dispensation. And further, inasmuch as Christ is elsewhere spoken of as the Head of the whole mystical body of his people in all ages - all to be gathered together at last in him - he may be regarded, even before his incarnation, as himself reproached in the reproach of his servant Moses. Compare the view, presented in Hebrews 3, of the Son being Lord of the "house" in which Moses was a servant, and the comprehensive sense of "God's house" implied in that passage. Nor should we leave out of consideration the identification, maintained by the Fathers generally (see Bull, 'Def. Fid. Nic.,' I. 1.), of the Angel of the Pentateuch, of him who revealed himself to Moses as I AM from the bush, with the Second Person of the holy Trinity, the Word who became incarnate in Christ. (Cf. John 1:1-15; also John 8:58, read in connection with Exodus 3:14; and 1 Corinthians 10:4, where the spiritual rock that followed the children of Israel in the wilderness is said to have been Christ.) Whatever, however, be the exact import of the expression, "reproach of Christ," in its application to Moses, it is evidently selected here with the view of bringing his example home to the readers of the Epistle, by thus intimating that his faith's trial was essentially the same as theirs.
