He was the younger son of George Richardson (d. 1806), master of Blackett's charity school, Newcastle; his elder brother was Thomas Miles Richardson, the artist. Richardson's father came of a family of small landed proprietors in North Tyne, but had offended his parents by his marriage. Richardson began business in a shop at 5 Blackett Street, Newcastle, as a bookseller and music and print seller. He later moved to 101 Pilgrim Street, and finally to 44 Grey Street, adding printing to his business. In 1850 Richardson emigrated"
"of Israel. At this time Moses was born to his father Amram, son of Kehath the Levite, who entered Egypt with Jacob's household; his mother was Jochebed (also Yocheved), who was kin to Kehath. Moses had one older (by seven years) sister, Miriam, and one older (by three years) brother, Aaron. The Pharaoh had commanded that all male Hebrew children born would be drowned in the river Nile, but Moses' mother placed him in an ark and concealed the ark in the bulrushes by the riverbank, where the baby was discovered and adopted by Pharaoh's daughter, and raised as an"
"Aaron Aaron ( or ; ""Ahärôn"") is a prophet, high priest, and the brother of Moses in the Abrahamic religions. Knowledge of Aaron, along with his brother Moses, comes exclusively from religious texts, such as the Bible and Quran. The Hebrew Bible relates that, unlike Moses, who grew up in the Egyptian royal court, Aaron and his elder sister Miriam remained with their kinsmen in the eastern border-land of Egypt (Goshen). When Moses first confronted the Egyptian king about the Israelites, Aaron served as his brother's spokesman (""prophet"") to the Pharaoh. Part of the Law (Torah) that Moses received from"
"Elisheba Elisheba, also spelled Elisheva (; ""’Ělîšeḇa‘""), was the wife of Aaron, the elder brother of Moses and the ancestor of the Jewish high priests, according to the Hebrew Bible. She is said to be a daughter of Amminadab, and a sister of Nahshon, from the Tribe of Judah (). The Hebrew name is composed of two parts. In Hebrew, ""El"" signifies ""God"" and ""Sheba"" means ""abundance"", so the name Eli-sheba can be translated as ""God is abundance"". In the New Testament, in first chapter of the Gospel according to Luke, a woman named Elisabet (Greek: Ἐλισάβετ) is said to"
"brother Moses and his son Eleazar. Upon entry to the cave where he was to die, Aaron saw his brother Moses dress his elder son Eleazar with the clothes of the high priesthood, as initiation to high priesthood. Jewish commentaries on the Bible say that this initiation ceremony served as the catalyst for the stipulation that all future candidates of high priesthood be patrilineal descendants of Eleazar the elder son of Aaron and not Ithamar, the younger son. Similarly, the Bible relates how, at the time Phineas son of Eleazar appeased God's anger, he merited the divine blessing of God:"
"While speaking about Mary, the mother of Jesus, the Quran also calls her as the sister of Aaron. There is an Aaron in the Bible, namely Aaron the brother of Moses, who also had a sister Miriam. According to Muslim interpreters, this Aaron is different from the brother of Moses. Moses and Jesus were separated far apart in time, but it was a tradition to give people the names of prophets and pious persons who lived before them as mentioned in the following hadeeth: In the Books of Samuel, Hannah is grateful that God gave her a son, Samuel. She"
"Bithiah then adopted him as her son. Aside from the name ""Moses"", which Bithiah gave to him, he had seven names, or according to other stories ten, other names given to him by his mother, his father, his brother Aaron, his sister Miriam, his nurse, his grandfather Kehat, and Israel. These names were: Jared, Abi Gedor, Ḥeber, Abi Soko, Jekuthiel, Abi Zanoah, and Shemaiah (""Shama 'Yah"" meaning ""God has heard""), the last one being given to him by Israel. He was also called ""Heman"". Moses was a very large child at the age of three; and it was at this"
"matrilineal line is the mentioning of the maternal line of Yocheved, the mother of Moses. Even though tribal affiliation traditionally passes through the father, the greatest leader of Israel, Moses, is listed as descending from the House of Levi not only through his father Amram but specifically through his mother Yocheved as well. Yocheved was the daughter of Levi. Correspondingly, Moses's sister Miriam was both the granddaughter of Levi and the great-granddaughter of Levi. Moses married Zipporah, daughter of Jethro, Priest of Midian. They had two sons, Gershom and Eliezer, both born before the Exodus. The sons of Moses are"
"Eleazar Eleazar (pronounced ; ) or Elazar was a priest in the Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament), the second ""Kohen Gadol"" (High Priest), succeeding his father Aaron after he died. He was a nephew of Moses. Eleazar played a number of roles during the course of the Exodus, from creating the plating for the altar from the firepans of Korah's assembly, to performing the ritual of the Red Heifer. After the death of his older brothers Nadab and Abihu, he and his younger brother Ithamar were appointed to the charge of the sanctuary. His wife, a daughter of Putiel, bore"
"Esau Esau (; , ISO 259-3 ""ʕeśaw""; ""Hēsau""; ; ""‘Īsaw""; meaning ""hairy"" or ""rough""), in the Hebrew Bible, is the older son of Isaac. He is mentioned in the Book of Genesis, and by the prophets Obadiah and Malachi. The New Testament alludes to him in the Epistle to the Romans and in the Epistle to the Hebrews. According to the Hebrew Bible, Esau is the progenitor of the Edomites and the elder brother of Jacob, the patriarch of the Israelites. Esau and Jacob were the sons of Isaac and Rebekah, and the grandsons of Abraham and Sarah. Of the"
"and then, according to Exodus 18:9–12a: Following this event, it was Jethro who encouraged Moses to appoint others to share in the burden of ministry to the nation Israel by allowing others to help in the judgment of smaller matters coming before him. These events take place in the Torah portion Yitro (Exodus 18:1–20:23). There is some disagreement over the name(s) of Moses' father-in-law. In the KJV translation of , a man named Hobab appears as Moses' father-in-law, while makes him ""the son of Raguel [Reuel] the Midianite, Moses' father in law"". Reuel is noted , as ""a priest of"

The Torah generally depicts the siblings, Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, as the leaders of Israel after the Exodus, a view also reflected in the biblical Book of Micah. Numbers 12, however, reports that on one occasion, Aaron and Miriam complained about Moses' exclusive claim to be the 's prophet. Their presumption was rebuffed by God who affirmed Moses' uniqueness as the one with whom the spoke face to face. Miriam was punished with"
"Jethro (biblical figure) In the Hebrew Bible, Jethro (; , Standard ""Yitro"" Tiberian ""Yiṯerô""; ""His Excellence/Posterity""; Arabic ""Shu-ayb"") or Reuel was Moses' father-in-law, a Kenite shepherd and priest of Midian. In Exodus, Moses' father-in-law is initially referred to as ""Reuel"" (Exodus 2:18) but then as ""Jethro"" (Exodus 3:1). He was the father of Hobab in the Book of Numbers 10:29. He is also revered as the spiritual founder and chief prophet in his own right in the Druze religion, and considered an ancestor of all Druze. Jethro is called a priest of Midian and became father-in-law of Moses after he"
"Nadab and Abihu Moses instructed Aaron and his family not to mourn, although the people at large were permitted. Nadab and Abihu were the first two sons of Aaron the Levite by his marriage to Elisheba, daughter of Amminadab from the tribe of Judah. They had four sons in total, the younger two sons being named Eleazar and Ithamar. During the Exodus journey, after the Israelites' affirmation of their covenant with God, Abihu and Nadab accompanied Moses, Aaron, and 70 elders up Mount Sinai. There they 'saw' God with great clarity, walking on a pavement of sapphire stone, and shared"
"instead of his own two stubborn sons, Gershom and Eliezer. The fate of the sons of Moses is theologically controversial: they disappear from history. The books attributed to Moses give them no further mention despite the vast Levitic and Deuteronomic settlements of civic, military, priestly duties, and so on. One explanation is that because Zipporah was the daughter of a non-Jewish priest, God (or the priestly writers of the Hebrew Bible) did not have much pleasure in the sons of Moses. He had a brother named Ezra. Gershom According to the Bible, Gershom (; ) was the firstborn son of"
"Aaron, and Miriam"". According to the Midrash, just as Moses led the men out of Egypt and taught them Torah, so too Miriam led the women and taught them Torah. Miriam was the daughter of Amram, the leader of the Israelites in ancient Egypt, and of Jochebed and the sister of Aaron and Moses. The narrative of Moses' infancy in the Torah describes an unnamed sister of Moses observing him being placed in the Nile (Ex 2:4); she is traditionally described as being Miriam. In the biblical narrative of the exodus, Miriam is described as a ""prophetess"" when she leads"

Moses and his brother Ceasar were ""drummers"" (traveling salesmen) for their father's dry goods firm. They sold their wares from Maryland to Alabama. In the 1880s the Cones then moved to Eutaw Place in Baltimore, on the same street as the Lindau family. In 1884, Moses began to court Bertha Lindau, the eldest daughter. Moses and Bertha in all likelihood met at a community social club called the ""Sociables."" Moses'"

"Tomb of Aaron The Tomb of Aaron is the name of the supposed burial place of Aaron, the brother of Moses. There are two descriptions of its location in the Pentateuch, and different interpretations of its location. Although in Jewish tradition, the location of Aaron’s grave, like that of Moses, is shrouded in mystery, the Islamic tradition places it on Mount Hor, near Petra in Jordan. The Pentateuch gives two accounts of Aaron's death. The Book of Numbers (Chapter 20) gives a detailed statement to the effect that, soon after the incident at Meribah (Kadesh), when Moses and Aaron showed"

Later on, Asiya, wife of Pharaoh, finds Moses at the river and adopts him as her own, but Moses refuses to be suckled by her. Miriam asks Pharaoh’s wife and her handmaidens to have his own mother act as nursemaid to Moses, the mother’s identity not being known to Pharaoh’s wife ().

"Puah Puah (etymology uncertain) is a name given to two persons in the Bible: The 11th century Jewish rabbi Rashi's Talmud commentary on the passage from Exodus identifies Shiphrah with Jochebed, the mother of Moses, and Puah with Miriam, Moses' sister, making the two midwives mother and daughter respectively. However, in Midrash Tadshe (on Exodus 1:15), it is assumed that Puah, as well as Shiphrah, was a proselyte, and that she was not identical with Miriam. Commentators have interpreted Exodus 1:20-21 in various ways. Some scholars argue that the two halves of each verse are parallel, so that it is"

While they were there, Abdul-Muttalib noticed Wahb's niece, Hala bint Uhayb, and he asked for her hand as well. Wahb agreed, and Muhammad's father Abdullah and his grandfather Abdul-Muttalib were both married on the same day, in a double-marriage ceremony. Hence, Hamzah was the younger brother of Muhammad's father. Hamzah was reportedly four years older than Muhammad. This is disputed by Ibn Sayyid, who argues: ""Zubayr narrated that Hamza was four years older than the Prophet. But this does not"

Moses and Aaron mourn their sister's death, but the people grow impatient with Moses (significantly, not with Aharon) for his extended crying, and complain to him of the lack of water. Moses pleads for the privacy to mourn his sister in peace, and reminds the people that they have other officials and elders to whom they can appeal, but the people are implacable and threaten to stone Moses immediately if he does not produce water.

The Torah refers to her as ""Miriam the Prophetess"" and the Talmud names her as one of the seven major female prophets of Israel. Scripture describes her alongside of Moses and Aaron as delivering the Jews from exile in Egypt: ""For I brought you up out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, and I sent before you Moses,"

Hebron is portrayed in the text as the founder of the ""Hebronite"" faction of Levites; however, on some occasions, the Book of Chronicles treats the ""Hebronites"" as being distinct from the descendants of Kohath. No further details of Hebron's life are given by the Bible, and according to biblical scholars the genealogy for Levi's descendants is actually an aetiological myth, reflecting popular perception of the connections between different"

By marrying her, Muhammad also established kinship ties with the banu Makhzum, his previous opponents.
