- The Israelites & the Pharoah of the Egypt
- Escape from Egypt with Moses
- 10 Commandments, experience in the Desert
- The laws received in the desert (Mosaic Law)
- Conquerors -- Babylonians (what scriptural 'thing' came from here) & Assyrians
- Greece with Alexander the Great & Rome
- Herod the Great at the time of Jesus

2. Know the story of Cain Killing Abel

3. Know the story of Noah's Ark -- particularly, the chart reviewed in class reviewing the two stories (Priestly & Yahwist).

4. Know the story of the Tower of Babel. What was it? Importance? Why does it teach the Israelite peoples?
