The idea of Heston voicing the Burning Bush came from Heston, himself. During their trip to the Sinai, Heston and DeMille met with the Abbot of St. Catherine’s Monastery, and Heston suggested that he should voice God. Commenting “If you hear the voice of God, you hear it inside yourself”. The abbot was intrigued by that idea.

@Dallas_K2 жыл бұрын
As the single-piece stone obelisk tips over the edge and drops to the base it could easily crack in two. That is the purpose of all that wooden support--to relieve some of the stress as it is hoisted up and over the edge and to compress it tightly. The most critical stress would come about the moment it is at a 40 degree angle. Baka wanted more sand piled higher so the drop would not be so great. Once upright, the sand below would be removed and the obelisk would gradually settle into position. Moses really was gambling in deciding to proceed so soon. He clearly had faith in the work of the slaves.
@jgtheman844 ай бұрын
@@Dallas_Kit wasn’t hoisted up like this tho, they simply layed the obelisk far enough onto the sand so that when the sand was released, the obelisk simply lowered itself down into position.

Great movie except the stonework of ancient Egypt were constructed by well paid Egyptian nationals not slaves. Being a stoneworker was a family job and considered an artisan skill. The narrative from the old testament about Israelites escaping slavery in Egypt is simply conjecture. There is simply *no* archeological evidence that any Canaanite people were ever enslaved by the pharoes of the Nile. The Canaanites tribes were however a great mobile and light infantry fighting force in the Bronze Age and were used by Egyptians as mercenaries. There is some evidence that the Israelites under Moses may have been held on reserve with a flimsy contract for too long before abruptly leaving in what we know as the exodus. Their subsequent military victories are mentioned in the Bible with the conquest of Canaan (Gad, Reuben etc). Zionist and Christian propagators of this common modern myth both overlook one major element of history of this region. *Ancient Egyptians kept extensive and detailed records of Everything*. Furthermore they carved them into stone, from major historical events right down to day to day mundane details. It's all in the heiroglyphics. No Israelite slaves constructing their monuments on record.
@CountArtha9 жыл бұрын
Robert James "Ancient Egyptians kept extensive and detailed records of Everything." They also practiced damnatio memoriae - the erasure of any and all record of a person's existence - for enemies of the state and of the reigning pharaoh. Tutankhamun's heretical father, for example, was only re-discovered in the 19th Century, 3,200 years after he died. It may be that the Hebrews' captivity in Egypt was intentionally forgotten.

Moses was not a slave. He was a highly regarded member of the royal family. We know so much more now than even when this movie was made. I did note the use of sand as a tool to support the obelisk and ease it into place, which is one of the methods offered by historians. Slaves may have been used instead of animals because they were considered expendable. But, that is only conjecture on my part. And, as for your comment about the Bible, I think you would be surprised how many facts are contained in its pages.
