Moses is the baby and biblical character who is referred to as 'the baby in the bulrushes'. By the end of Exodus 1 in the Bible (King James Version), the pharaoh of Egypt (perhaps Ramses II) had decreed that all the Hebrew boy babies were to be drowned at birth in the river Nile. But when Yocheved, Moses' mother, gives birth she decides to hide her son. He ends up being placed in bulrushes.

Moses' mother specifically placed him in an ark and concealed the ark in the bulrushes by the riverbank. The baby (Moses) was discovered and adopted by pharaoh's daughter, and raised as an Egyptian.
