Acts 7:23 says Moses was forty years old when he left Egypt and Acts 7:30 says that it was forty years later that the angel spoke to Moses through the burning bush. So Moses would have been eighty when God called him.

This is an important answer – Muslims have, as one of their claims, that Moses was 40 when he started his ministry (Same as Muhammad) these verses disprove that assumption. Moses was 80 when he received the call from the burning bush. Muslims try to claim Muhammad is the prophet spoken of by Moses, where the New Testament makes it clear it was Jesus – the true Manna, the true bread from heaven.
