    The Heroism Of Ramses In The Film The Ten Commandments

    One of my favorite things about Bob is the fact that the character of Ramses in the film, The Ten Commandments, is his hero. When I first met Bob, he had never seen the great classic films such as, Casablanca, West Side Story, Sound of Music, Gone With the Wind, It's a Wonderful Life, or The Ten Commandments, among many others. You'd think he was raised Amish or something. In any case, I set about educating him on all the culture he had missed. There was no way he could be in a relationship with me and not have any knowledge of such cinematic icons.…

    Akhenaten: Ruler Of Egypt

    Akhenaten, the so called "Heretic Pharaoh  was a Ruler of Egypt during the period known as the 18th Dynasty. He ascended to the throne as Amenhotep IV, succeeding his father Amenhotep III. Akhenaten's brief reign, of hardly more than sixteen years, happened at a difficult time in Egyptian history; a period in which the decline of the previously unparalleled Egyptian empire seemed inevitable. Many scholars maintain that Akhenaten was responsible for this decline, but evidence suggests that it had already started. Whatever his connection with the decline of the Empire, one aspect of Akhenaten's reign is indisputable: his religious reforms. Effectively discarding the beliefs of an Empire, Akhenaten denounced the existing polytheist religious…

    Prince of Egypt

    The story of The Prince of Egypt was very inspiring. It’s about the life of Moses. Long ago in Egypt, all new born male Hebrews are to be killed. In order to save Moses, his mother put him in a basket and the queen found him along the river. Moses grew up with his foster brother, Ramses. They were really close and living happy and wealthy. One day, Moses met his siblings. His sister insisted that Moses is her brother, and that he is a Hebrew. Of course Moses wouldn’t believe her, but she sang a lullaby that her mother sang when he was still a baby. He realized that he was really a Hebrew when he dreamt that same night. Looking at the Israelite slaves suffering, Moses killed an Egyptian. He didn’t really mean it, and went away ashamed and confused. In the dessert, he found a burning bush. It was God commanding him to save the Israelites from the Egyptians. So Moses went back to Egypt, and was welcomed by Ramses. Moses asked to free the Israelites, but that’s just one thing Ramses wouldn’t do. Moses then performed a miracle by turning his staff to a snake; but they were not impressed. Moses still tried to convince Ramses, and performed more miracles. Guided by God, Moses and the Israelites headed to Israel which was a sea away. God helped them by dividing the sea into half in order for them to pass. In Mount Sinai, God appeared and gave them the Ten Commandments. If people will follow it, they will be able to live in the promise land with Abraham as their father.…
