[@calumgallagher4518]

Cody Buckler the whole movie hinges on the connection of the brothers (of course, the artwork, music and story is also important) and this song not only proves it but defines it. you can tell how much it kills the both of them to be fighting but because of his father, ramases feels he needs to keep the slaves because its been part of the "mighty dynasty" and for moses this is a task sent by god and if you disobey him then your ass is grass but you can tell how close both of them come to stopping this and giving in because of there history. in the ten commandments they don't even act like they had a bond if they didn't already tell you they were brothers you wouldn't of known

[@birdsie9791]

Actually, the Bible says the Pharaoh WAS going to let the jews go after like, I think it was the second or third plague. But then it says: "But the LORD hardened the Pharaoh's heart," so basically, God miraculously made the Pharaoh refuse to let the Jews go so he could keep doing that stuff. He was also going to give up at the 9th Plague, but the same happened. Honestly, if anyone was stubborn it was God.

[@birdsie9791]

First of all. Calm down. Writing in caps lock is a testimony to a lack of intelligence and a tendency to react aggressively. Both of these traits are overall negative and do very little to further this conversation. Second of all -- Where is the evidence that God created me, my mother, and my father? Also, funfact, God is also the one who created the world where innocent children die. Let that sink in.

[@JJA8020]

I love how "thus sayeth the lord" is put right after Ramses says "I will never let your people go". It's a clever acknowledgement of the Ancient Egyptian's tradition of deifying Pharaohs, in contrast to Moses who readily admits that he's working under a higher power and God's rule of not worshiping other gods. It's also ironic because Ramses the Great actually had a ceremony where he "ascended to Godhood" which is a ceremony that's held when a pharaoh's reign lasts thirty years. Ramses's reign lasted sixty-six years.

I wish people would look over the religious aspect of the movie to see the actual conflict between the two brothers. Ramses didn't want to let down his father's legacy, and Moses was doing what God had told him. It's incredibly sad, because they're not acting out of hatred, they're doing what they think is right. They love each other.

[@Aquaria-Amethyst]

[@natalieorozco7722]

Brena Lynn Yes he did say his brothers name.

[@Aquaria-Amethyst]

Natalie Orozco​ and you know something I don't think Rameses charged after the Hebrews because they left he went after them because he feels like it was all their fault that everything that he had was gone what did he have left his parents was dead his son was dead and he felt that they are the reason his brother turns on him all he had left was Moses and I believe his love for his brother became a dangerous in the end. His whole attitude became if I can't have Moses no one will and he told his soldiers to kill them all. I guess that includes Moses

@@nyarlepheotep7666 Can a "benevolent" be pissed off? I don't think so, because last I check, a benevolent being is kind, forgiving, and empathetic. A being who can be "pissed off" is a being who has rage, a quality which a benevolent being is devoid of. Remember that you call your God omnibenevolent, which means, under any circumstances, he should never be "pissed off". If you want to argue that he is punishing you for your misdeed, then why torture that person for eternity in hell? Is your God even allowing the "sinners" to change? I don't think so. To me, your God is treating his followers as his plaything rather than a child, and you all are afraid of this "benevolent" being (which is funny because if you find someone benevolent, why are you afraid of it). Lastly, isn't wrath a sin in Christianity? Looks like your God is not doing what he says.

[@TheFloatingDryad]

It is a good song but why send the plague?

[@cooool74]

Siobhan Pauro So Moses returned home to make Ramses release the Jewish slaves. He refused to and thought that Moses' god was ridiculous and that the Egyptian gods would protect him. So with each plague Moses' sent he asked for Ramses to release his people. Each time Ramses said no another plague would come worse than the last. The 10th plague being the death of firstborns which finally forced Ramses to agree. The plagues were God saying through Moses, "You will let my people go if you don't want everything to be destroyed." Ramses being very stubborn blew God off. Which is never a good idea. (Of course this is all from a religious perspective) That is why the lyrics "I send my scourge, I send my sword" are repeated twice because it is Divine punishment. "Thus saith the Lord" is said very often because God was commanding this to be done. If you watch this scene in the actual movie you can see all the emotions they are both going through really well. One of the strongest scenes in the movie in my opinion. Moses' chagrined really comes through and anger at his brother. As well as Ramses' refusal to allow Moses to win.

[@thecodakid8188]

cooool74 Therefore, all of the innocent people should be punished instead of the Pharaoh being punished. BENEVOLENCE!

[@EMJKfunnTim3s]

The Coda Kid Sounds pretty cruel, but I would think that if this really did happen, God would have allowed it only to prove a point (which was also mentioned in the song) that sometimes the innocent will suffer due to the selfishness/pride/stubbornness of others (especially of those in power), which is something that still happens today. Kinda reminds me of the government, lol.

This song reminds that audience that it isn't two random people pitted up against each other, Moses and the Pharaoh were brothers. It is brother vs brother.

Grim Knight i didn't say this didn't happen in the bible. but do you know how the bible describes this scene? "moses went to pharaoh, and said "let my people go" and pharaoh refused, so moses grabbed some dust from the floor and tossed it in the air. "god's wrath shall fall upon thee", and there was a plague of locusts for (X amount of time)." whooo, scary. as opposed to "i send the locusts on the wing, such as the world has never seen, on every leaf and every stalk until there's _nothing left of green!_" the bible isn't scary. it's dry and poorly written.

[@Mailed-Knight]

Wasn't it "wind" not wing. So there maybe that little bit may not scary, it's hardly poorly written the Bible is anything but. As I said before there is much more frighting imagery than "I send the locusts on the wing/d". It is still very cool though.

[@Yal_Rathol]

Grim Knight it's "on the wing", meaning flying towards a target. "on the wind" works as well, it just implies that a storm is blowing the locusts in, rather than them flying in under their own power. and i've read the bible. the imagery is only good in a few spots, most of them in revelations. the rest of it is dry, bland and uninterestingly described.

These kinds of stories are the ones that last. Such a powerful conflict, with no side being "evil". Moses wanted his people's freedom from Egyptian rule, following a newfound hebrew god's words.

An interesting point: In the biblical story, pharaoh attempted to let go of the Israelites several times, but each time God purposefully hardened his heart, because he wanted to punish the Egyptians more. After Ramses says his line here that you quoted, the choir chimes in and says "this saith the lord" indicating that despite what we are seeing, these aren't really Ramses' words. These are the words of God, spoken through Ramses as he hardened his heart to stand against the plagues, as he did in the biblical version.

[@STCooper1]

Zoya Duchene The Salvation Plan of God is basically that because all humans sin, and because God loves all humans, He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins on the cross, which He did, was buried, and then rose from the grave on the third day, that whoever would sincerely believe by heart and confess this by mouth, that He is the Son of God and that He has done all this would be eternally forgiven their sins and saved from Eternity in the Lake of Fire to instead spend it with God.

[@wafflecat32]

The whole first part of this song is so well done. The way the choir builds with the orchestra backing it up, it's almost like you can feel God's wrath building and building till it breaks in the chorus. And right at the end, I really love the way the voice actor said the last "my". The full lyric for Moses there would be "Thus saith the Lord: let My people go" so it's Moses giving a direct command from God, and it sounds a lot more forceful than the other times he said "let my people go." I just find the way this song was done very cool.

Religious or not, just think of this as a movie for a second. This is a God who has warned a man who treats his slaves, God's people, like crap, MULTIPLE times. And this has been happening for who-knows-how-long. Ramses' father even murdered babies when he heard that the slaves were talking of their God having created a liberator. So, Ramses has the gaul to say God is weak, and his many 'gods' can prevail. God uses his power to show the Egyptians that He not only proved was stronger than their false deities, but also looked down on the slaves. Whether you believe it or not, while God is the protagonist with questionable actions, He is just showing Egypt the other part of their relationship with the slaves.

Oldangr Yes, but, mind you, this was before Christianity and Judaism existed as recognised religions. Back then, it was just this is your god, these are mine. It was just monotheism and polytheism for them. And the Egyptian gods weren't really kind beings. So, keeping that in mind, put yourself in that God's sandals. Diplomacy had failed, and Rameses had made it quite clear that love and kindness weren't going to sway his decision. In the words of Pharaoh, his heart was hardened. So, God had to put this choice into actions that would get through this puny man's thick skull, resulting in the plagues. You also have to keep in mind that the mindset of Hammurabi was the ruling of the time. Ever read those rules of his? An eye for an eye was one of the kindest rules on there. Get it now? There really wasn't any choice in the matter. Rameses was being bullheaded, and therefore he was taught a lesson. But don't take my word for it. It is just a movie, after all.

Dear (no pun intended, as you'll see in a moment) Lord, this film is even better than I remembered as a kid! Nonbeliever or not, every time "Thus saith the Lord" gets said in this song, I get chills. Also, adding to the "Dreamworks, not Disney" conversation; yeah, there's this thing in business called risky ventures, and something like this is inherently controversial due to the subject matter is risky. When this film was released, Dreamworks was a very new company and a new brand, whereas Disney had been around for the better part of the 20th century already and had a name and a reputation to keep, thus making it more profitable to stick to the safer Disney fare. Basically, by having nothing to lose and everything to gain from a riskier breakout hit, Dreamworks had the balls to make this film.

And even now I wish that god had chose another serving as your foe on his behalf is the last thing that it wanted!" Shows that he still loves his brother even though they must be enemies."this was my home! All this pain and devastation how it tortures me inside!" Imagine having to watch the distruction of your childhood home and memories. "You who I called brother! How could you have come to hate me so?! Is this what you wanted?" This shows that the other brother feels betrayed. He wonders if moses ever really thought of him as a bother" I'm pretty sure that the rest of his family had died with moses(his brother) being the last alive loved one to him. He must feel so lonely which is why the last thing he wants to do is fulfill what his father wanted him to.
