I can defend her majesty treating younger Moses better than Ramses considering the very religious beliefs of the Egyptians at that time. For all she knew, it was a gift from the gods that a baby arrived to the kingdom in the river Nile without anything happening to it. So in essence, Moses became like a deity symbol aside from being the Prince of Egypt (title card). Moses literally means "to be pulled out/drawn out" from water. Hebrew translation is the name Moses as the Ancient Egyptian of it is lost to time, but that is pretty much the significance of his origin.

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Oh that's cool :D

[@samhwwg]

Well, the Pharaoh’s daughter obviously knew Moses is a Hebrew. Exodus 2:6 And when she had opened it, she saw the child: and, behold, the babe wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, This is one of the Hebrews' children. She was a woman with a great heart, knowing the command of her father but defying nonetheless.

[@Jake007123]

Well if we read the Bible, it says clearly that God hardens the Pharaoh heart, meaning God made him not listening while God was punishing Egypt as a whole instead of the rulers. So God is the bad guy. I mean, he could just teleport the slaves away from Egypt into the promised land anyways...

[@JohnSkilz]

​@Jake007123 that's not what that means in context. When it says God hardened Pharoahs heart, it was referring to how this supreme God's power would inevitably reveal the stubbornness of a human who thought he was a god. Pharoahs believed they were gods on earth. Moses's God proved they weren't and Pharoah hated that. Also, it wasn't just about the people being free. It was God returning some portion of the 430 odd years stolen from them by the Egyptians through slavery.

[@wombat4191]

The real villain is the Hebrew god. He performed those miracles and then specifically went out of his way to harden Ramses' heart (resulting in him not letting the Hebrew go) to make him and everybody suffer more than needed just to prove a point. Like, what kind of sadistic god does that? Did he get some sick enjoyment out of actively escalating the situation instead of, you know, not hardening Ramses' heart so that he would let the Hebrew go after the first scourge, saving a lot of suffering on both sides.

Fun fact, Ramses II (The Ramses in this film) is the phaoroh named Ozymandias by the greeks, supposedly responsible for the 'Look upon my works ye mighty and dispair' quote after having built the most prosperous civilization in history (up to that point)... until his brother came home.

[@fireflymiesumae]

True, it's almost hilarious

[@TyHernandez-q9v]

Other than the fact that according to archeology, Moses never existed. So, you got it all right, until that point... Not even to mention the bible doesn't even get its dates right, the various facts around the story itself have events from a range of about 300 years, all supposedly happening at the same time. Which is very common in the bible, the few historical things it gets right, are always during the wrong date by 50-300 years...

[@wiel5908]

@@TyHernandez-q9v the pharaoh is not even named, so most works of fiction just assume its rameses for some reason, some dispute that the whole captivity in egypt and the exodus actually happened or if its just more tales, as it turns out, the guys writing the book really liked to exagerate stuff, they do that a lot when telling about the conquest of canaan and the wars that happened between the israelites and the other caananites, which mostly historians says not only didn't happen but the israelites and caananites actually lived together quite okay, so the cultural-religious divide between them was a latter development which was retroactively inserted later when they were writing their own history, they exagerate the numbers of the people they destroy and so on, so yeah, a lot of things there are kinda unreliable at face value

[@TyHernandez-q9v]

@@wiel5908 They use the context of the actual historical events mentioned to narrow down the Pharaoh who would have been in power. The actual historical events mentioned occurred within a stretch of roughly 500 years. So multiple Pharaohs ruled in that time. Its also part of the reason we know the Exodus isn't real, because when we compare the writings to verified archeology, the dates cannot possibly line up. But yes, I actually read all the history and archeology myself for fun. I love history. But yea, no, the bible is a bunch of fairytales, barely anything mentioned in it happened. It's all moral teaching fables or propaganda for the Israelites to make themselves seem more important than they really were. Actually, based on linguistic evidence, they now believe the Israelites were Canaanites. This is also based on the fact that the Israelites originally worshiped El, the primary god of the Canaanite pantheon. Before adopting the worship of YHWH the Midianite god of Metallurgy and war. The Egyptians were actually the first to mention the god YHWH in history. He is referred to as the god of the desert bandits for all intents and purposes.

[@thenoisyninja]

The reason this religious movie succeeds where others fail is because it works as secular media as well as religious. It’s so much more than some paint-by-numbers moralistic parable, it’s a tragedy about brotherhood and duty and fate.

[@bebellatrix4124]

16:03 That's because in the bible Ramses' father had a nameless daughter, she was the one who found Moses in the river and adopted him and SHE was the firstborn, since she was already dead when the Angel of Death came, Ramses only had to mourn his son, not his sister. In case you're wondering, yes, that would make Ramses more like Moses' uncle, they considered each other brothers because they were raised together and the age gap was short enough to make it weird for Moses to call him "Uncle".

[@pendragonsxskywalkers9518]

There was never said in Bible that daughter of Pharaoh was his first-born. And she was not dead by the time of Angel.

[@bebellatrix4124]

@pendragonsxskywalkers9518 Pharaoh’s daughter opened the basket, looked at the baby, and saw it was a boy. He was crying, and she felt sorry for him. She said, “This is one of the Hebrew children.” 7 Then the baby’s sister asked Pharaoh’s daughter, “Should I go and get one of the Hebrew women to nurse the baby for you?” [...] She took the child and nursed him. 10 When the child was old enough, she brought him to Pharaoh’s daughter, and he became her son. Pharaoh’s daughter named him Moses (Pulled Out) and said, “I pulled him out of the water.” Moses and Ramses were about the same age, if the Pharaoh's daughter was old enough to adopt him (Moses), she needed to be older than Ramses. The bible never mentioned any other siblings but even if she wasn't the firstborn Ramses still would've been spared

[@bebellatrix4124]

​@@pendragonsxskywalkers9518 Now, I admit that that last part was more assumption than fact, the princess was really only mentioned once or twice in the bible, since Ramses is only angry for the death of his son, I believe she either wasn't in Egypt when the tenth plague hit or was already dead

But even if she didn't, and this Bitya was daughter of different ruler, nowhere in Bible it is said she was firstborn. Is Islam this royal woman - whose name is Asiya - indeed loses her life before tenth plague.

[@fireflymiesumae]

Actually Pharaoh's married their daughters/sisters so she was both his daughter and his wife. The reason she's already dead is because Egypt has a tradition were wives are killed and entombed with their husbands.

In the story of exodus one terrible situation was traded for another that was little better, and it cost Moses everything but his life.

@@okamiexe1501 While this is true, slavery in the US was a byproduct of old European standards. The civil war was a war between which economy prevailed. The founding fathers needed the support of the pro-slave south to win the revolutionary war. and slavery was a highly contentious thing even during its founding. The term, "A more perfect union" was an acknowledgement that sure things were messed up now in terms of a government, but with time, more sensible policies would prevail. The real tragedy is that while the US won the civil war, we lost reconstruction. If Abe Lincoln wasn't shot by some B-list actor, we would be in a much better position today. Unfortunately, we ended up with Jim Crow and over 100 years of delays in progress.

The story from Ramases’ perspective is actually really depressing. It’s basically him growing up in a kindof co-dependent relationship with his brother, only to have his brother flip out and bail with no-contact once they actually had the power they always wanted. Then when Moses comes back several years later, and Ramases is excited because he finally has his brother back(because ruling together was always the plan), Moses doesn’t want anything to do with co-ruling or their relationship, he just wants to tear everything down. Then he does, kills your son, and leaves again. The supreme irony being that had Ramases not valued their relationship so highly, and killed Moses like he would any other badlands chieftain that ran his mouth, all of the horror would have been averted.

[@ardynizunia9709]

It's honestly not that simple. Imagine, you're in the position to make that choice. Remember that choosing to free them all will cripple your kingdom and likely cost tons of lives. The realistic solution would have been to offer Moses a deal. He would do his best to fix this system in his reign and abolish slavery. But for now he still needs the workforce, but the slaves will be treated better over time until they're equal to normal workers. This compromise would eventually free Moses people while not sacrificing the empire's stability. Also, realistically the freed slaves would just die before they can build anything significant from nothing lol. Ofc god is in this story so he probably kept them safe and well fed. This story also is just such a self debunk of the bible. Because according to this story, some humans are NOT gods people. So he didn't create them all or he has favorites, aka he's not all good/loving. But anyone who actually read the bible would know god is not loving at all. He's quite the whimsical mass murderer. Not even just the big catastrophes. He used bears to pettily kill children on multiple occasions lmao. God's a real psycho.

The funniest bit about Prince of Egypt is that it was supposed to be DreamWorks money maker for that year. Yeah, sure, it did well, no doubt about that. But the ironic part about it is Shrek. Shrek was supposed to be the production "gulag" where DreamWorks sent their troublemakers to work on a project they didnt put much stock into. Turns out Shrek would out perform Prince of Egypt in every way possible aside from the abso-fucking-lutely beautiful animation style PoE presented. Its kinda sad in a way. American hand-drawn animation was really doing something in this era, and we kind of just dropped it over CGI and other means of animation. Like, seriously: Lost City of Atlantis, Prince of Egypt, Treasure Planet, The Iron Giant? All of these were seriously underrated films.

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

I am mostly going from memory but, as I recall, the ten plagues were actually easily explained via natural events leading to cause and effect chains. The blood(1), whatever it actually was (common theory is red tide algea), killed the fish that ate the frogs and their eggs. The frogs(2) then hatched out in record numbers because there were less eaten. They died and their bodies rotted in greater than normal numbers providing sustenance for insect life. That caused a dramatic increase in the lice(3) and biting fly(4) populations. More biting insects means higher likelihood of diseases spreading thus the mass deaths of the livestock(5). It also meant a lot more boils(6) on people due to the increased biting. The hail(7) is a normal thing that happens and could have just been more severe than normal, same with the locusts(8). The three days of darkness(9), possibly a long sandstorm? Not a lot on that one though. Then we come to the big one. The deaths of the first born(10). When the hail came, there was panic to get the crops in quickly so as to save as much as possible. As a result, they likely would have not been as thorough in checking for mold. In times of crisis, the Egyptians fed their first born sons more to improve the chances kf the family line making it through. More infested food for specifically the first born sons meant they were most affected. As for the blood over the door preventing it, anyone who would have listened to that likely would have also adhered to hebrew traditions involving more meticulously cleaning of the food and care for it's storage which means they would jave found the mold and not been exposed. Again, this is from memory so it could be a bit off but I feel like it holds up nicely.

My theory why Ramesis never killed Moses (in the movie) is because he explicitly pardons him for all crimes, now and forever. For Pharaoh to kill Moses would be him going back on his word, and also probably making the royal family look weak. 11:31

It's even more sad in the Bible. God literally made the pharaoh a cruel bastard then punished innocent Egyptians for it. Exodus 4:21 21 And Yehováh said to Moses, “When you go back to Egypt, see that you do before Pharaoh all the miracles that I have put in your power. But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go.

[@atenek9243]

God made the pharaoh no more evil than he already was. Notice that God didn’t harden the pharaoh’s heart untill the 6th plague, and the very next plague Pharaoh hardens his own heart. In this way God was merely acting in accordance with the pharaoh’s will. Let’s not kid ourselves he wouldn’t let God’s people go no matter what - he and his ancestors were abusing God’s nation and the Egyptians were complicit in that.

Yes, sometimes he did harden his own heart, but other times it was clear that his heart hardening was from an external source. A lot of references actually show that no one hardened the Pharaoh's heart but rather that it was already hardened or through other people's actions (7:22, 8:16), and was predisposed to act a certain way rather than an active choice. Whenever the Pharaoh would have hardened his heart already (8:15, 8:32), God didn't do anything to soften it. Whenever the Pharaoh wouldn't have hardened his heart, God hardened his heart for him (7:13, 9:12). That doesn't sound like he had much of a choice; it sounds like God wanted it to go a certain way, and it did.

We know that Ramesses married *at least* five of his daughters: Bintanath, Meritamun, Nebettawy, Meritre and Henutmire.

Imagine marrying a daughter, having a daughter with your daughter and then marrying that (grand)daughter, what the f- Two other of Ramesses daughters ,Takhat and Anuketemheb, were married to an Egyptian pharaoh, but it is uncertain whether it was the father(Ramesses), brother(Meneptah) or nephew(Seti II). Then there are two more daughters of Ramesses, Baketmut and Henuttawy (not to be confused with the other six daughters of Ramesses who were also all named Henut: Henutmire, Henutpahuro,Henutsekhemu, Henutpare, Henuttaneb and Henuttadesh ) were possibly also wives of their father as in some depictions they were dressed in the garments of queens and not princesses.

Fun fact! A key point in the biblical Exodus narrative is the fact that the Israelites only end up in Egypt because of famine in Canaan. Joseph, an Israelite before the time of Moses, gets booted from his family and eventually, through a convoluted series of events, winds up advisor to one of the Pharaohs. Canaan gets hit with a famine and Joseph's family seeks out food in Egypt, which has food because Joseph gave the Pharaoh good advice, are reconciled with Joseph and settle down in Egypt. Eventually, Joseph dies as does the Pharaoh, and the Pharaoh's successor gets scared that Joseph's decedents might pose a threat to him and he enslaves them. Thus, the situation at the beginning of Exodus.

[@143Shay]

Cool thing about this (I think it happened at the end of Genesis/ the beginning of Exodus) is that when God sent the 10 plagues He was fighting against 10 gods of Egypt.

Oddly enough, I’m not religious but this movie is my comfort movie. I’ve watched it several times over the years since 5th grade and now I’m 25. I still think because Rameses was accused by his father of destroying the dynasty, it really solidified into Rameses’ actions later on. He does repeat, “I will not be the WEAK LINK,” mirroring when Seti told him “but one weak link can break the chain of a mighty dynasty.” And then his actions led him to not only lose what his father was so set on building, but also made him lose his son and once again, his brother. I think Rameses is such a sad character.

[@petermj1098]

Rameses already had everything he wanted as Pharaoh. His own insecurity of looking weak made him not want to free the slaves. Moses made Rameses feel insecure by telling him God’s commander and not him. Rameses is an insecure person who could have been humble, but instead became prideful.

That's what makes it so tragic: Moses was mostly forced into a role he didn't want, but he went through with it because he knew it wasn't worth it to keep letting his people suffer, especially after discovering his heritage and what the previous pharaoh did to babies like him. It was eating him inside though because he had to cause more suffering to those he still cared about, and even though he got what he wanted, it had to come at the cost of one more innocent soul. That's why he broke down in tears after leaving Ramses, because he wanted things to play out differently just as much as Ramses did

He gave the Egyptians a *strong* sign about who, and what he was......And, they ignored it........

[@19TheFallen]

So I'm seeing some people bring up stuff about Pharaoh having his heart hardened by God in the comments. There needs to be some context to this so I'm gonna just point it out here. Yes, God did harden Pharaoh's heart. However, something to note is that Pharaoh hardened his own heart 5 times and brought down the first 5 plagues before God gets involved...and then after that he still manages to harden his own hart every now and again. This means Pharaoh had multiple chances to let the people go before God got directly involved and he refused each time. From then on, Pharaoh entered into a state of judgement, at which point there's no guarantee for anything other than God coming after you. It's that moment where God just says "You need to be dealt with" and there's little chance of going back. The man was in no way a victim, he did in-fact have multiple chances to quit while he was ahead, he chose not to. At one point he says he'll let the hebrews go and watches the plagues end and IMMEDIATELY goes back on his word because he thinks he got one over on God. Yeah, no, bro deserved everything that came to him and that's the lesson his fall is supposed to teach. When you reject God's mercy on account of your pride, you only invite his wrath in exchange.

[@SalvadorDolbyvsZAWARUDO]

@@aeonreign6456 You mean the thing that Egypt did to the Hebrews first without prior provocation? The one the egyptian people were able to stop and resist like the hand maidens of Pharaoh (who God did bless for their rebellion against the order) but ultimately chose not to? Unless you somehow forgot that part. Meanwhile you forget that, Biblically speaking, Death is not a concept to God himself because he sees the dead and living alike. Humans see death as a separator, as you so clearly show in the way you phrase this question as though they die and they disappear like they do in your world view, they don't. The innocents simply left their body and were brought to God to reside with him, that's the beginning and end of their story. We know this because he has always been merciful to children and those who don't truly understand right from wrong - sometimes in body, other times in spirit. We see this when God told Jonah that he didn't want to Judge Nineveh because there were too many people who didn't truly understand the difference between good and evil and again with King David, when asked why he wasn't fasting or mourning when his child died (By God's hand no less). He said He'd go and meet the child again one day but that child wasn't coming back to him so there was no reason to do those things. I.E. He believed the child with with The Lord and he'd meet him again when it was his time. The fact this statement comes from David, the guy whose life, love and faith in God allowed him to get the Forgiveness of the New covenant before the new covenant was even established, is not to be taken lightly. To quote David's psalm "Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of The Lord forevermore" this is one of the few pre-new testament mentions of an afterlife, a radical view from what most Hebrews seemed to believe. Yet of all people, it comes from David, the guy so close to God he called him "A man after my own heart." So David was well aware of what was going on in his child's passing, more so than everyone around him, and concluded there was no need to mourn a child being kept in perfect peace. Similarly, the heart of your question is about how you perceive God being cruel and unfair, focused on specific parts but not the whole picture to intentionally skew perception and possibly provoke response. Unfortunately The Bible, should you take time to actually study it without malicious intent, doesn't paint that picture. It paints a picture of God being merciful even to the children of his enemies. Therefore I respond by saying I don't need to rationalize anything. Your question is just an emotionally charged, intentionally inflammatory but misinformed take on clearly established themes and information spread throughout the Bible. Wish you well and hope you have a good day.

Which means god killing a child is bad. Unless you think because he's god, he's allowed to do things you can't, which many seem to think.

There's always been a quite popular theory that the story of Moses was accidentally mis-attributed to Ramses and instead was the result of the volcano in Santorini 500 miles north that wiped out the Minoans. It would provide a "chain of events" similar to the plagues (starting from Cinnabar-laced ash that would have turned the Nile red,) and would have the added benefit of creating erratic enough weather that it could generate winds strong enough to create a "standing wave" effect in the "Sea of Reeds" instead of the Red Sea, an oft-cited mistranslated of the original text, similar to a "parting" that would have subsided when the winds shifted during the night/day cycle.
