The angel Gabriel gave this man a stutter by prompting him to put a coal in his mouth as an infant. This man nearly starved in Midian before being saved by Zipporah. God is angered after this man chooses to hit a rock twice to conjure water, condemning him to never enter the Promised Land. God spoke to this man from a burning bush (10[1])and, on Mount Sinai, revealed the Ten Commandments to him. For 10 points, name this Jewish prophet who, in Exodus, led the Israelites out of Egypt and parted the Red Sea. ■END■
