The egyptian pharaoh was worried that the jewish people would become too powerful. what did he decree to prevent this?

The correct answer is a) All Jewish baby boys were to be killed.

Explanation:

The story of the Jews in Egypt is told in the biblical accounts; They were slaves of the Farahones and were subdued for thousands of years.

A pharaoh (whose name is not mentioned in the bible), when threatened by the Jews, decided to kill the baby boys of the Hebrew people this through midwives (ladies who help in childbirth). Still, the plan of Pharaoh did not have the expected effect, because the people he sent to kill the babies feared God and did not follow his orders.  

In the middle of the hunt of the pharaoh to the Jewish babies, a mother was able to save her baby, sending him by the Nile river where he was found by the sister of the pharaoh, in this way the child was raised as part of the royalty and put Moses name.  

Moses being Jewish, was the one sent by God to free his people from slavery in Egypt and who would take them to the promised land.
