00:04Disobedience, you see, comes at a cost, even for a great one like Moses.
00:11What did he do?
00:14That is a good question.
00:16He did what every man must do when God calls him to an impossible thing.
00:23He had to decide who to fear and who to serve.
00:29Moses gathered his family, and his brother, Evan, the Levite, who God provided as a voice for him, a help
00:36to his weakness of speech.
00:39He asked himself the question again.
00:46What is in my hand?
01:14You could stay here, send Aaron in your stead, anyone but yourself.
01:20It is my name he called, my past that waits for me there.
01:26Take the family, stay with your father.
01:29No, I will wait for you here.
01:32I do not know when or if I will return.
01:38Then I will wait a long time.
01:43I do not know when or if you will return.
01:56I pray for you and forever.
02:08Moses.
02:11Yes.
02:58I will name you Moses, for I drew you from the water, and you will be a son to me.
03:09And a prince.
03:13And so Moses was raised in Pharaoh's house, a son of Egypt.
03:20He learned their ways and was honored as a prince, given a place among them.
03:30But God had not forgotten his people and was preparing Moses for a greater purpose.
03:39One that would take nearly 80 years to fulfill.
03:43No.
03:43No.
03:44No.
03:47No.
03:53No.
03:57No.
04:02No.
04:04No.
04:06No.
04:17No.
04:19No.
04:22No.
04:22No.
04:24No.
04:25No.
04:26No.
04:37No.
04:38No.
04:39No.
04:45No.
04:46No.
05:05Why would they believe you are who you say?
05:10Why would they not kill us right now?
05:31I know this man, Moses.
05:38Why have you returned to the people you betrayed?
05:43Where is your father?
05:45My father is dead.
05:50Why did you come?
05:52To speak the words of the Lord, the God of Israel.
05:56Let my people go that they may hold a feast to me in the wilderness.
06:01These are the words I am tasked to bring before you.
06:06I do not know your God.
06:10But why would I obey him?
06:13You waste your time, Moses.
06:16You waste your life.
06:20Remember our former days.
06:23Heed my words.
06:26Heed your words.
06:28Heed your words.
06:30Before my days.
06:35Let me tell you a story.
06:38My father told me.
06:40A Hebrew woman's son was raised in generosity in this house.
06:50My grandmother, placing him beside my father, is a prince of Egypt.
06:56This very sword given to him by my family.
07:00And he used it to betray us all.
07:06When he murdered a son of Egypt and fled into the sand, never to be seen again.
07:13Until now.
07:15So.
07:23Tell me, Moses.
07:26Why would I listen to you?
07:28I should not just strike you down with this very sword.
07:31Was, I was, I was.
07:33I was foolish then.
07:34I used my own strength to do what I thought was just.
07:39But now, I come on behalf of a god who needs no sword, whose wrath you have kindled because you
07:46have made the lives of his people bitter with slavery and their cries have reached the ears of the living
07:51god.
07:52If you resist him, you will suffer a fate worse than theirs.
08:03What can your god do?
08:08So, Moses remembered the question and the staff in his hand.
08:24Moses.
08:27I have gods of my own.
08:35I have gods of my own.
09:17This is a sign to you.
09:21The court of gods has done this.
09:37Do not resist him.
09:42Heed my words.
09:45I am not your net.
09:49I am Pharaoh.
09:53I will never let your people go.
09:59You tell that to your god.
10:06All I see is a guilty old man playing with snakes and shadows.
10:13And listen, Moses, to the cry of your river.
10:18This comes from the Nile.
10:19Yes?
10:20Yes, yes, yes, yes.
10:21The very place my grandmother drew you from slavery.
10:24You call this river a god.
10:26You worship it as the source of your life.
10:29Watch.
10:31What the Lord will make of your gods.
10:47The Lord did just as he had warned, turning the Nile River into blood before their eyes.
10:54The water was spoiled throughout all the land, and the people suffered.
11:00Yet Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he turned his anger upon Israel.
11:06Their burdens grew heavier, and the name of Moses became a curse upon their lips.
11:13Since you can, our burden has only grown.
11:19Whips fall heavier.
11:23My son was beaten to death, because you dared to speak to Pharaoh.
11:31So the Lord sent more signs.
11:34Each one a judgment against the gods of Egypt.
11:38Frogs rose from the waters, filling the streets and homes.
11:45Gnats and flies covered the land.
11:51Their livestock was struck with disease.
11:55And even their bodies turned against them, afflicted with painful boils.
12:07Moses, you have made my people suffer.
12:12Now yours will last well.
12:18So God sent fire and ice from the heavens.
12:25Locusts avowal what remained.
12:28And the deep and oppressive darkness fell over the land.
12:40With each sign, Pharaoh begged Moses for mercy, then hardened his heart, and would not relent.
12:46Get out!
12:49So, the Lord gave him over to his bride, and brought a final judgment upon Egypt.
12:59You, Moses, you promised such deliverance.
13:02Yet all we have is judgment.
13:08Judgment is coming.
13:10That much is true.
13:17Tonight, each household is to take a lamb without blemish.
13:24Slaughter it at twilight.
13:27Put some of the blood on doorposts and lintels of your houses.
13:32Moses, an angel of death, will pass through the land to strike down all the firstborn of Egypt.
13:41When he sees the blood, he will pass over you.
13:46You expect us to trust the blood of the lamb?
13:48I expect you to trust the God!
13:55You sent me to you.
13:57The blood is for you to remember that life is bought at a price.
14:02Redemption comes through sacrifice.
14:07Redemption comes through the birth of his father.
14:07opened their eyes so he is up.link
14:47No!
15:02No!
15:03Help!
15:04No!
15:11Sonja.

15:44Shh.
15:45Shh.
15:46Shh.
15:53You did this.
15:55No, your pride did this.
15:59Your God does miracles.
16:01You raise my boy now.
16:03You raise my boy!
16:07Moses, Moses, wait.
16:09Moses, wait.
16:11Wait.
16:12If any part of you is still Egyptian.
16:16You're still my uncle.
16:21Just raise my boy.
16:25We saved you from the river.
16:27Raise my boy!
16:29You raise him now.
16:32Moses, turn around and save my boy!
16:36I am a messenger only, and I have no such power.
16:43No!
16:50Take care of people.
16:54Never let me see your face again.
16:59Get out!
17:00Out!
17:01I am a messenger.
17:04I am a messenger.
17:05I am a messenger.
17:06I am a messenger.
