[edit] Moses must have lived for much longer than I thought

Somebody please get over here and cite that whole "sister of Moses" thing, or I'm going to delete it. I can think of no evidence to support that someone in the 3rd (or even the 1st) century A.D. could be anything like a sister to (the prophet, Biblical) Moses. I know nothing about this woman and am reluctant to nuke stuff myself, so I'd rather someone fiddle who's more knowledgable/invested. But I'll do it if I have to!
