Moses the Lawgiver

S01E04: Episode 4

Overview

The Story of the Exodus or freedom of Hebrews from Egypt is told from a perspective that highlights Moses' efforts to persuade first the stubborn Pharaoh Merneptah, who was his adopted cousin, to release his workforce of slaves. Then, once free and in the wilderness en route to the Promised Land, Moses must prove to be a pious and patient leader or lawgiver to a people who still think they want more out of him or God. For 40 years, Moses must carry on this load and challenge for God and Israel.

With the help of his brother Aaron and Joshua, the people of Israel are officially born or created centuries ago when God promised and vowed to Jacob that he would be the father of a mighty nation.
