Years of watching Prince of Egypt, and I can’t get over how old Moses looks. The Bible says he was 80 when he started performing miracles in front of the Pharaoh. But I still can’t get over it. Prince of Egypt Moses looks relatively young for someone who’s 80.
@@julius9943 Gotta figure it’s mistranslations. They used a base-60 numeric system back then which didn’t have a number for zero and was non-metric depending on what you were counting (think quarts in a gallon rather than neat, clean powers of ten). They found a Sumerian king list claiming that some of them ruled for centuries, sometimes millennia, then someone figured out that the numbers started making more sense when you divided by 60 (or sometimes by 12). Oldest guy in the Bible is Methuselah (969). Divide that by twelve and he died at 80. Divide Noah’s age by twelve and instead of building the ark at 500 and dying at 950, he instead builds it at 41 and dies at 79.
Well I always figured that 80 was fairly middle age for him since he lived another 40 years after the Exodus so he prob looked about 50 or so. Plus while a lot of depictions of him are of a old man with white hair, the Bible describes him as a very strong, physically impressive man, even up til his death.
If I studied my Jordan Peterson correctly, a many eyes means that it can see very well, so it's able to perceive more much more than a human. And the few mouths says it's able to talk to us in many ways, so it's better at conveying the affective meaning of what it's saying. And the fact that it's burning means that if we don't clean our room before receiving wisdom from this bush, it will burn our house down. And that's a bloody bad time, bucko. That last part might not be correct.
I am a music teacher at primary school and I showed this video to my students during a music lesson about Gospel Culture. The students were delighted with the music and animation. Thank you. Regards from Poland.
I come back to this video all the time like comfort food. It's seriously one of the most creative and cool interpretations of the story of Exodus I've seen. It oozes with personality down to Moses tossing his walking stick before it turns into a snake, the living hieroglyphics like the bird and the big cat, and of course the burning bush! Whole thing is so neatly conveyed.
@i don't know Modern Egyptians are not the same people as the ancient Egyptians given the fact that most modern Egyptians are descendants of Arabs who invaded Egypt in the 600s AD.

2:37. These hieroglyphs actually say mw3sjs pronounced muahsis. Can't translate the rest, but I now assume it is rather accurate aswell. I am in disbelief that Paley actually made sure this Text is readable even though only a fraction of people can read hieroglyphs.
Hey Chuck. I guess it is a kinda work in progress. Nina P. has the Exodus theme in various finished and unfinished stages. You can find all of them in the "Music/Art" playlist on jhillaudio TH-cam page, and other pages if you search "Nina Paley". I ran across her work on Vimeo... One of my favorites is "Death of the Firstborn".
He's The One Who made it possible for us to sing and created melodies in the first place. Just as He Loves better than anyone and was He Who created Love, and is Love, so it surely is regarding music.

Go Down Moses Louis Armstrong When Israel was in Egypts land Let my people go Let my people go, The Lord said Go down, Moses Opressed so hard they could not stand To let my people go. 'way from Egypts land Tell all the Pharaos If not I'll smite, your firstborn's dead Thus sayeth the Lord, bold Moses said So let us all from bondage flee So let us all in God be free
It's kinda interesting how God basically asked Moses to ask Aaron to ask the Pharaoh to let His people go, first, very nicely, then, increasingly insistently, until He pretty much brought Egypt down upon her knees and she had to cave, even if she really didn't want to. I guess I just imagined God would be a bit more forceful and direct to a merely human ruler instead of forming a human chain of Chinese whispers to try to get the message through, via peaceful and less peaceful means. No matter what persuasive arts God used on the Pharaoh, whether soft power or hard power, at the end of the day, God never took away the free will and agency from Pharaoh, so that he was free to do exactly the opposite of what God wanted him to do, even if it was contrary to his ultimate best interests, demonstrating that God never really exercises patronising paternalism and treats all of His creatures as responsible adults who can be held to account to bear the consequences for their decisions and don't need to be protected from the consequences, like some kind of spoilt child.

Someone in the coments suggested watching in 2x speed, ABSOLUTELY RECOMEND, especial if you turn on the 2x speed right after the burning bush stops talking in the beginning of the video
But the eyes on the bush are Almost identically to the shape of the 7 eyes that roam the earth but with a frame around them, with glory shining from top and bottomwith squares around the eye to act as eyelashes. Anyway Jesus loves you.
It's still utterly fascinating to me how the story of a desert dwelling people thousands of years ago made its way into a nineteenth century spiritual.

Just noticed how his head is shaped like the stone tablets of the comandments
That's an awesome detail
Also the holy mountain atop which the burning bush stands is shaped like a giant pecker.
And later, they put a point on top of Aaron, and his head is a Star of David.
That has to be the cooledt design for the burning bush. Having the leaves form eyes and mouths is so creative!

It isn't really Egyptian, it is English transcribed into hieroglyphs. Which makes sense, because the song itself is in English.
I'm seeing those stone microphones and the guy quickly scribbles glyphs upon a stone TV and the other one scratches them off as you sing :D
