According to Jewish tradition, the Israelites were in Egypt for 210 years (Rashi commentary, on Exodus ch.12). For the first century, they lived in peace and plenty, as long as Joseph and his brothers were still living. After that, they were enslaved by the Egyptians. The enslavement was gradual, in steps, eventually becoming harsh and crushing (Exodus ch.1). At the end of that time, God sent Moses (Exodus ch.3) to demand that Pharaoh free the Israelites; and He brought plagues upon Egypt (Exodus ch.7-12) when Pharaoh refused.
As a related topic, a brief biography of Moses may be pertinent here:
Moses was born 245 years after the death of Abraham. Pharaoh had decreed that Israelite boys be killed (Exodus ch.1), but the daughter of Pharaoh took pity on the infant Moses (Exodus ch.2) and raised him as her own son. He was forced to flee after killing a cruel Egyptian taskmaster, and went to Midian, where he wedded the daughter of Jethro. He eventually achieved the highest level of prophecy (Deuteronomy ch.34) and was called upon by God (Exodus ch.3).
The importance of Moses cannot be overstated. He brought the Israelites out of Egyptian slavery (Exodus ch.12). He received the Torah from God (Exodus 24:12) and later recorded it in writing (Deuteronomy 31:24). He went up on Mount Sinai for 40 days and nights (Deuteronomy ch.9-10) and brought down the Two Stone Tablets with the Ten Commandments (Exodus 31:18). He brought the Israelites into the covenant with God (Exodus ch.19 and ch.24), and he oversaw the building of the Tabernacle (Exodus ch.35-40). He was the humblest of men and the greatest of prophets (Numbers ch.12).

Answer:
A blended family
Explanation:
The blended family is the family where grandparents live with grandchildren. This is also called a step-family or a constituted family. It is also called a complex family where both the parents live with their children from the previous relationship and now make a new family.
These parents live together with children from the previous relationship and current relationship. The parents could be from the same sex or maybe heterosexual and may don't have children.
Thus Josephine families are the example of a blended family where she got two half-siblings from the father side and a half from the mother side. They all live together called a blended family.

In the business setting of buying and selling of shares and stocks, the buyer might have not have an indepth knowledge of the companies he or she is buying from hence the need to engage the services of a broker to cover such part.

Since he is paid to offer such services, it is expected of him to do indepth study of any stock before offering his expertise advice. <em>It would be bad for a stock broker to offer his client a stock worth penniless in real life but might looks healthy on papers due to the financial manipulations done by the country.</em>
The Articles of Confederation failed because they did not give Congress and the national government enough power. The new U.S just fought a war to end what they considered arbitrary rules of a strong government that controlled the local government and the leaders of the U.S. They did not give the Central government the power it needed to rule effectively.
It did not give the Congress the power to tax, to draft troops, to place tariffs on foreign goods, to control interstate commerce or stop states from printing their own money, and the list can go on.
