Or change to another more familiar translation. One of them was named Ramses and the other was named Moses.
This is a story in the Old Testament of the Bible about God sending Moses to rescue the Hebrews who were suffering in Egypt.
But before Moses knew who he really was, he was an Egyptian prince who, along with Ramses, enjoyed the greatness of the Egyptian Empire where countless slaves piled up. Ramses is his trusted eldest brother, and he is Ramses' closest younger brother. They once made trouble together, were punished together, and enjoyed freedom together on this land.
When the time came, Moses realized that all this was just an illusion. He was not an Egyptian prince, but a child who was placed in the Nile River by slaves many years ago. He had blood that belonged to the Hebrews. And what he shoulders is the destiny of saving the Hebrews. God himself spoke to him and sent him back to Egypt to save his fellow man. The happy life he lived with his lover after he left Egypt was something his compatriots who worked every day in Egypt could not enjoy.
So Moses went back and prayed for the Hebrews in that land.
In front of him is the new pharaoh and his former brother Ramses, they are all happy to see each other, but this cannot change the hostile relationship between the two. The arrogant and stubborn Pharaoh refused to give up his dignity, so God sent disaster and took away all the eldest sons. Only the Hebrews smeared with the blood of the lamb on the lintel could escape the disaster.
However, before the more serious disaster, Moses had come to the place where he and his brothers played the most, where they had talked about everything. The pharaoh sitting in the shadow of the Egyptian Empire looked at him wearily. They all remembered the past, but what was the use of remembering. You are my brother, but you are my enemy first.
Hit by the death of his eldest son, Ramses finally allowed Moses to take all the Hebrew slaves. The freedom they have been seeking for years has finally arrived, but with fear and doubt in the eyes of the people, they set out on their way home. The vengeful army of Ramses followed behind them, and God sent Moses to divide the Red Sea, which was blocking the front of freedom, and drown all pursued enemies.
When they set foot on a new continent and the sea recovered, Moses turned his head to look at the boundless sea, and Egypt on that side was completely gone.

The above are literary accents.
Speaking of watching this... I really couldn't help but fall in love with Moses and Ramses brothers OTZ, especially at the end Ramses shouted Moses' name on the coast, and Moses looked back at the sea.
Reminds me of Tim Roth's To Kill A King at the end, Cromwell dies, Fairfax walks out, and everyone outside is cheering Fairfax's name, but Fairfax's expression was not happy, because all the cheers he got were for killing his own brother.
That's also right for the cute and abusive CP = =
But in this movie, the way God uses to save the Hebrews is very confusing. If God is really almighty and great, why doesn't God use a method with less casualties? Such cruel means to punish ordinary people who are not the perpetrators...
And after the Red Sea closed, the fearful eyes of the Hebrews were also very thought-provoking. Faced with such power, even if it is the power used to save oneself, I am afraid that the first reaction is to be afraid?
All in all, it's a very good movie, produced by DreamWorks. The music is even more beautiful!
The one that saves us at the beginning, and the lullaby that Moses sang when his mother sent him away, and the duet that the brothers sang during the plague of locusts, although you are my brother Shenma, are all very, very nice, go back and download the original soundtrack album!
Finally - OMG! I just saw this is a '98 movie...the '98 effect can do this! ! ! ! ! only worship...
