Imagine you have a friend who can’t be seen but is always there for you. That’s like Moses’ belief in God. Even when a big, scary person wanted to hurt him, Moses knew his invisible friend would keep him safe and helped him leave Egypt.

Historical Background

Hebrews was written by an unknown author around AD 60-70 to encourage Jewish Christians who were facing persecution. The author describes the faith of historical figures like Moses as examples for endurance in difficult times.
