...and Moses was...? You are very close to something!

This right here. Moses was an immigrant too.

? He wasn't. He was born in Egypt. He was Jewish and Jewish people were already in diaspora (and an enslaved minority in Egypt at the time before he liberated his people), but he was from Egypt, born from his Jewish mother who hid him in the Nile river, raised as Egyptian royalty.
That's different from being an immigrant. :/

He didn't spend his whole life in Egypt. He ran from Egypt and spent a time away. Even got married. Then he came back.

Still doesn't make him an immigrant (at least in Egypt). So you mean when he went to Midian? Or that he immigrated to the promised land after he liberated the jews?
like, calling him an immigrant is so strange, especially if you mean as in "immigrant in Egypt", since he was originally from there...

I didn't say anything about Egypt? What I said was he was an immigrant. Which he was for part of his life, specifically the period in Midian. Same with Jesus. He and his family fled to Egypt and spent some time there. So he was an immigrant for that part of his life.

You are the one who brought up Egypt. I didn't.

Yeah, you're right. I guess I got confused because in my native language (romantic) we say "migrant" and not "immigrant" when we want to point out someone moved places during his live (and sure, Moses "immigrated" to the Promised Land, but... uhm. He kind of did not? He found the place. We use different verbs here).
Immigrant is more specific, and in Moses's case I could only use it in the context of Egypt. Hence why I thought you were talking about Egypt.
Language is hard.

Sorry, I get it. Every language has particularities that can be impossible to translate. In English we kind of use those two words interchangeably.

I mean, look at how hard Trump is working to revoke citizenship for brown people born to foreign parents in the US. That's Moses exactly.
