      Bible Stories. 1. Under the rule of the Egyptians, the Greeks and Chinese made them slaves and worked day and night. When the pharaoh heard that a savior would come among the newborns of slaves, he ordered all the newborns to be killed. Moses' mother put him in a bamboo basket and floated along the...

      He can ascend to the throne only one step away, what can you give him? I gave him life. I gave him infinite love. Did you wipe his tears? When he is in pain, is your heart aching? I was heartbroken for him, hugging him made my hands ache, I didn't even dare to touch the corners of his clothes, all...

      The religious epic of the Eight Classics, everything is very elegant and can be used as a textbook

      Nearly 4⭐. Magnificent and glorious. This film is extremely luxurious in terms of lines, costumes, props, makeup, and scene scheduling, and it is difficult to replicate in later generations. In today's China, where religious beliefs are so thin, what comes to mind when watching this film is another problem: when Moses performed so many miracles, the people would still be incited by lackeys. This plot is not exaggerated, but quite real. Even people's beliefs will be extremely utilitarian, not to mention life?

    The Ten Commandments quotes

    • Sephora: Which of my sisters did you choose?

      Moses: I made no choice, Sephora.

      Sephora: She was very beautiful, wasn't she? This woman of Egypt, who left her scar upon your heart. Her skin was white as curd, her eyes green as the cedars of Lebanon, her lips, tamarisk honey. Like the breast of a dove, her arms were soft... and the wine of desire was in her veins.

      Moses: Yes. She was beautiful... as a jewel.

      Sephora: A jewel has brilliant fire, but it gives no warmth. Our hands are not so soft, but they can serve. Our bodies not so white, but they are strong. Our lips are not perfumed, but they speak the truth. Love is not an art to us. It's life to us. We are not dressed in gold and fine linen. Strength and honor are our clothing. Our tents are not the columned halls of Egypt, but our children play happily before them. We can offer you little... but we offer all we have.

      Moses: I have not little, Sephora. I have nothing.

      Sephora: Nothing from some... is more than gold from others.

      Moses: You would fill the emptiness of my heart?

      Sephora: I could never fill all of it, Moses, but I shall not be jealous of a memory.

    • Narrator: Ladies and gentlemen, young and old, this may seem an unusual procedure, speaking to you before the picture begins, but we have an unusual subject - the story of the birth of freedom - the story of Moses. As many of you know, the Holy Bible omits some 30 years of Moses' life... From the time, when he was a three-month old baby, and was found in the bulrushes, by Bithiah, the daughter of Pharaoh and adopted into the court of Egypt, until he learned that he was Hebrew and killed the Egyptian. To fill in those missing years, we turn to ancient historians, such as Philo and Josephus. Philo wrote at the time when Jesus of Nazareth walked the earth and Josephus wrote some 50 years later, and watched the destruction of Jerusalem, by the Romans. These historians had access to documents long since destroyed - or perhaps lost, like the Dead Sea Scrolls. The theme of this picture is whether men ought to be ruled by God's law, or whether they are to be ruled by the whims of a dictator, like Rameses. Are men the property of the state or are they free souls under God? This same battle continues throughout the world today. Our intention was not to create a story, but to be worthy of a divinely inspired story, created 3,000 years ago, the five books of Moses. The story takes three hours and 39 minutes to unfold. There will be an intermission. Thank you for your attention.
