96:4.2 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] had heard of the teachings of [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]] from both his [[father]] and his [[mother]], their commonness of [[religious]] [[belief]] being the [[explanation]] for the unusual [[union]] between a [[woman]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_family royal blood] and a [[man]] from a captive [[race]]. Moses' father-in-law was a [[Kenite]] [[worshiper]] of [[El Elyon]], but the emancipator's [[parents]] were believers in [[El Shaddai]]. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] thus was [[educated]] an [[El Shaddai]]st; through the [[influence]] of his father-in-law he became an [[El Elyon]]ist; and by the time of the [[Hebrew]] encampment about [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Sinai Mount Sinai] after the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exodus flight from Egypt], he had formulated a new and enlarged [[concept]] of [[Deity]] (derived from all his former [[beliefs]]), which he wisely [[decided]] to [[proclaim]] to his people as an expanded [[concept]] of their olden [[tribal]] god, [[Yahweh]].

96:4.3 [http[[Link title]]://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] had endeavored to teach these [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin Bedouins] the [[idea]] of [[El Elyon]], but before leaving [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt Egypt], he had become convinced they would never fully [[comprehend]] this [[doctrine]]. Therefore he deliberately [[determined]] upon the [[compromise]] [[adoption]] of their [[tribal]] god of the [[desert]] as the one and only [[god]] of his followers. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] did not specifically teach that other peoples and nations might not have other gods, but he did resolutely maintain that [[Yahweh]] was over and above all, especially to the [[Hebrews]]. But always was he plagued by the awkward predicament of trying to present his new and higher [[idea]] of [[Deity]] to these ignorant [[slaves]] under the [[guise]] of the [[ancient]] term [[Yahweh]], which had always been [[symbolized]] by the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_calf golden calf] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin Bedouin] [[tribes]].

96:4.4 The [[fact]] that [[Yahweh]] was the god of the fleeing [[Hebrews]] [[explains]] why they tarried so long before the [[holy]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Sinai mountain of Sinai], and why they there received the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Commandments ten commandments] which [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] promulgated in the name of [[Yahweh]], the god of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Horeb Horeb].
