00:15Disobedience, you see, comes at the cost.
00:18Even for a great one like Moses.
00:22What did he do?
00:25That is a good question.
00:28He did what every man must do when God calls him to an impossible thing.
00:34He had to decide who to fear and who to serve.
00:41Moses gathered his family, and his brother Aaron the Levite, who God provided as a voice for him, a help
00:48to his weakness of speech.
00:52He asked himself the question again.
00:58What is in my hand?
01:01.
01:29You could stay here to send Aaron in your stead.
01:33And anyone but yourself.
01:35It is my name he called.
01:38My past that waits for me there.
01:41Take the family, stay with your father.
01:45No, I will wait for you here.
01:47I do not know when or if I will return.
01:53Then I will wait a long time.
02:30I will wait for you.
02:33I will wait for you.
03:17I will name you Moses.
03:33And so Moses was raised in Pharaoh's house.
03:37Moses, a son of Egypt.
03:40He learned their ways and was honored as a prince.
03:47Given a place among them.
03:51But God had not forgotten his people and was preparing Moses for a greater purpose.
04:01One that would take nearly 80 years to fulfill.
04:29dad?
04:35Okay.
04:57She did not.
04:57I did not.
04:58She did not.
04:58I don't know.
05:39Why would he believe you are who you say?
05:44Why would they not kill us right now?
05:53I love his soul.
06:06I know this man.
06:10Moses.
06:14Why have you returned to the people you betrayed?
06:19Where is your father?
06:22My father is dead.
06:26Why did you come?
06:29To speak the words of the Lord, the God of Israel.
06:33Let my people go that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.
06:38These are the words I am tasked to bring before you.
06:43I do not know your God.
06:47Why would I obey him?
06:51You waste your time, Moses.
06:54You waste your life.
06:58Remember our former days?
07:01Heed my words.
07:04Heed your words.
07:06Heed your words.
07:08Before my days.
07:14Let me tell you a story.
07:17My father told me.
07:19A Hebrew woman's son was raised in generosity in this house.
07:29My grandmother, placing him beside my father, is a prince of Egypt.
07:36This very sword given to him by my family.
07:40And he used it to betray us all.
07:46When he murdered a son of Egypt and fled into the sand, never to be seen again.
07:54Until now.
07:56So.
08:04Tell me, Moses.
08:07Why would I listen to you?
08:09Why should I not just strike you down with this very sword?
08:13Was, I was, I was.
08:15I was foolish then.
08:16I used my own strength to do what I thought was just.
08:22But now I come on behalf of a God who needs no sword, whose wrath you have kindled because
08:29you have made the lives of his people bitter with slavery and their cries have reached the
08:33ears of the living God.
08:34God, if you resist him, you'll suffer a fate worse than theirs.
08:46What can your God do?
08:52So, Moses remembered the question and the staff in his hand.
09:08Moses.
09:12I have gods of my own.
09:14I have gods of my own.
09:21I have gods of my own.
09:26I have gods of my own.
10:04This is a sign to you.
10:08The god of gods has done this.
10:26Do not resist him.
10:29Heed my words.
10:33I am not your letting.
10:37I am Pharaoh.
10:42I will never let your people go.
10:49You tell that you're god.
10:56All I see is a guilty old man playing with snakes and shadows.
11:03And listen, Moses, to the cry of your river.
11:08This comes from the Nile.
11:10Yes?
11:10Yes, yes, yes, yes.
11:11The very place my grandmother drew you from slavery.
11:15You call this river a god.
11:17You worship it as the source of your life.
11:20Watch.
11:21What the Lord will make of your gods.
11:30Get him out.
11:31Get him out.
11:38The Lord did just as he had warned, turning the Nile River into blood before their eyes.
11:47The water was spoiled throughout all the land, and the people suffered.
11:51Yet Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he turned his anger upon Israel.
11:59Their burdens grew heavier, and the name of Moses became a curse upon their lips.
12:06Since you can, our burden has only grown.
12:12Whips fall heavier.
12:17My son was beaten to death because you dared to speak to Pharaoh.
12:24So the Lord sent more signs.
12:28Each one a judgment against the gods of Egypt.
12:32Frogs rose from the waters.
12:35Filling the streets and homes.
12:40Gnats and flies covered the land.
12:45Their livestock was struck with disease.
12:50And even their bodies turned against them.
12:54Afflicted with painful boils.
13:02Lord, this.
13:05You have made my people suffer.
13:08Now yours will last well.
13:15So God sent fire and ice from the heavens.
13:21Locusts of our what remained.
13:25And the deep and oppressive darkness fell over the land.
13:37With each sign, Pharaoh begged Moses for mercy.
13:40Then hardened his heart and would not relent.
13:44Get out!
13:47So, the Lord gave him over to his bride and brought a final judgment upon Egypt.
13:57You, Moses, you promised us deliverance.
14:00Yet all we have is judgment.
14:07Judgment is coming.
14:09That much is true.
14:16Tonight, each household is to take a lamb without blemish.
14:24Slaughtered at twilight put some of the blood on doorposts and lintels of your houses.
14:32An angel of death will pass through the land to strike down all the firstborn of Egypt.
14:41But when he sees the blood, he will pass over you.
14:46You expect us to trust the blood of the lamb?
14:49I expect you to trust the God!
14:56You sent me to you.
14:58The blood is for you to remember that life is bought at a price.
15:04Redemption comes through sacrifice.
15:17Redemption comes in to the resell of souls forever.
15:33This is my god.
15:41I don't know.
16:09I don't know.
16:42It's all right.
16:45It's all right.
16:47It's all right.
16:47It's all right.
17:00It's all right.
17:01You did this.
17:01No, your pride did this.
17:06Your God does miracles.
17:08You raise my boy.
17:09No.
17:10You raise my boy!
17:14Moses...
17:15Moses, wait.
17:17Moses, wait.
17:18Wait.
17:19If any part of you is still Egyptian,
17:24is still my uncle.
17:29Just raise my boy.
17:34We saved you from the river.
17:36Raise my boy!
17:38You raise him now!
17:41Moses, turn around and save my boy!
17:45I am a messenger only,
17:47and I have no such power.
17:52You!
18:00Take your people.
18:03Never let me see your face again.
18:08Get out!
18:11Get out!
18:12Get out!
18:13Get out!
18:14Get out!
18:16Get out!
18:18Get out!
18:30Get out!
18:30Get out!
18:30I'm sure he's dead.
18:30I'm been backed out.
18:30Get out!
18:30You!
18:32You!
