2 | Did Moses studder or have a speach prob | Ex 6:12 | Barach | 182387 | ||
You're right Kalos, the verse doesn't say "exactly" that he was a studderer. The Bible indicates he had a speech problem. What's your point? |

What's my point? Just this: Why do you say Moses was a stutterer, when the Bible doesn't say that? There are other speech problems besides stuttering. Grace to you, John |

Hi John, I think we agree that he had a speech problem - the Bible does say that, just like I know I use d's sometimes in my spelling instead of t's - did you notice the spelling of "studderer" (it's a very old learning problem that surfaces from time-to-time). I defaulted to stutterer because the question itself alluded to this specific speech problem and I recalled that some commentaries suggest that this was the problem. (btw: I'm sincerely curious about what other speech problems it could be now that you brought it up). Stuttering is an interesting problem - under stress or fear, it gets worse. I knew someone personally who had this problem and when under stress or in a fearful situation (public speaking), he literally couldn't get some words out. I used to feel so bad for him. Tieing this back to Moses (a humble man to begin with), God was telling him to go speak to the powerful Pharoah. As you know, Pharoahs were viewed as gods on earth with the power to decide life or death if they didn't like what they heard. If Moses speech impediment was stuttering, he may have felt, 'I would never be able to articulate God's message due to my problem'. So, let me know what other speech problems you think it could be, now that we agree that the Bible is silent on this. (Of course, some may argue what's the difference anyway and they would be right, wouldn't they?) With Christian Love, Barach |

Barach, Some common speech disorders are stuttering, cluttering, articulation disorders, lisping, apraxia (dyspraxia). For explanations of these terms, go to: www.kidshealth.org/teen/diseases_conditions/sight/speech_disorders.html Grace and peace, John * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
