I first saw this on T.V and liked it then. While The acting is still good on this DVd particularly worthy of mention is Ben Kingsley and David Suchet as moses and Aaron. Everybody knows the biblical story of moses and what he did and acomplished, bringing the Hebrews out of Egyptian slavery. However, a couple of things dodn't sit very well on the DVd. While on T.v obviously there is quite a bit of editing, there is to my mind an unessacary Bloody and vilolent scene after moses comes down from the mountain after the Israaelites make a golden calf and worshipping it instead of God. It mightn't bother other people but it ghad me looking away. Otherwise, it is a finely acted, accurate biblical account.
