Only Partially Based on the Bible
1 April 2024
I rather enjoyed all the episodes of this film. I have read the story of Moses many times. This version of Moses is based on interpretations from Islamic, Christian, and Jewish sources. Therefore, if you are familiar with only one of those interpretations you may find it somewhat off-putting.

They only cover the main story beats of Mose's life. For example, they don't talk about him striking the rock twice to get water which is found in the Bible. This was the event the kept him from the promised land according to Biblical sources.

In this film they never reveal why he is kept out of the promised land. They also don't talk about the snake on a pole, Miriam catching leprosy, or the earth swallowing up people who defy God.

They cover just enough to keep it short and sweet. I recommend this film to anyone.
