That new Moses movie is coming out, so I wanted to mention a few things, First, Pharaoh did not believe he was God. Pharaoh was not even a person, the Bible got that wrong. ParOh is not a person, it is the name of the main Palace, and the King lived there with the Apis cow and other symbolic people and animals. Moses was supposedly sent down the River in a Reed basket as a Baby, but somehow he still got a Hebrew name even though he was raised by Egyptians. And there is no record of Moses in Egypt. And anyone who thinks Egyptians worship snakes, you are wrong. They thought Apep the snake did battle with the Sun during the night, and they would make snakes so they could spit on them. Moses made his Altar out of Acacia wood. The Acacia tree is the Tree of Life in Egypt. Moses made the Tabernacle out of Acacia wood. Moses made the Ark of the Covenant out of Acacia wood. Historians are pretty sure when Moses talked to God in the Cave, the Burning Bush was a small Acacia tree growing next to a heat vent. Acacia trees has a gas that they release and it protects them from fire, but it could look like it was burning because the gas was burning around it. Acacia would have also given Moses the ability to talk to God, because vaporized Acacia bark produces DMT. Which when stuck in a small cave over a long time, would have made for a crazy experience. There is no evidence of Slaves in Egypt. The only things that even come close to evidence are the closest thing that has ever been found that even says anything close to this are the Ipuwer Papyrus and the Elephantine Papyri. The Ipuwer Papyrus talks about plagues and servants leaving, but no slaves, only servants. And that was not even the main part. So, it is more likely that the Bible story was copied from this, since the Bible story was not written down until much later. The Elephantine Papyri talks about the Jewish people being part of the Egyptian army, but they actually HAD slaves, they were not slaves there. And they had their own temples and everything. And, According to the Bible, Moses killed a slave driver, then his brother talk to him and they basically planned a rebellion. If the story is true at all, it is a story of someone having an identity crisis and their sibling taking advantage of them. And according to Jewish tradition, Moses wrote the Old Testament/Pentateuch. So, all of this is as Historically accurate as the story about Hercules splitting Africa and Europe at the Straight of Gibraltar.
