Charlton Heston was born to play this role.Every actor was unique to the part that they were given.Nobody could play the part of Ramses like Yul Bryner.What a magnificent cast of people.
Absolutely. A treasure of a film. The film stars Charlton Heston in the lead role, Yul Brynner as Rameses, Anne Baxter as Nefretiri, Edward G. Robinson as Dathan, Yvonne De Carlo as Sephora, Debra Paget as Lilia, and John Derek as Joshua; and features Sir Cedric Hardwicke as Seti I, Nina Foch as Bithiah, Martha Scott as Yochabel, Judith Anderson as Memnet, and Vincent Price as Baka, among others. Produced, directed, and narrated by Cecil B. DeMille, his final directorial effort before his death in 1959, shot in VistaVision (color by Technicolor), and released by Paramount Pictures. The film is based on the 1949 novel Prince of Egypt by Dorothy Clarke Wilson, the 1859 novel Pillar of Fire by J. H. Ingraham, the 1937 novel On Eagle's Wings by A. E. Southon,and the Book of Exodus, found in the Bible. It is also one of the most financially successful films ever made, grossing approximately $122.7 million at the box office during its initial release; it was the most successful film of 1956 and the second-highest-grossing film of the decade. According to Guinness World Records, in terms of theatrical exhibition, it is the eighth most successful film of all-time when the box office gross is adjusted for inflation. In 1999, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". In June 2008, the American Film Institute revealed its "Ten Top Ten"-the best ten films in ten American film genres-after polling over 1,500 people from the creative community. The film was listed as the tenth best film in the epic genre. The film has aired annually on U.S. network television in prime time during the Passover/Easter season since 1973.
Charlton Heston actually played two roles: DeMille selected him for the voice-only role of God. Heston recorded God's lines to audio tape, and some engineer pressed on the side of the tape reel to slow it down slightly as it was being mixed into the final soundtrack, creating the effect of God speaking slower and with a deeper voice.
@muslimresponse103 nope!!! Allah was invented by Mohammad in the 6th century AD!!! He created a national arab religion!!! Ishmaelites sold Joseph into slavery in Egypt!!!
That is were god was wrong. What god meant was that he is a trinity and that one day he(god) will die for the sins of mankind. And we know that god that died was lord Jesus.
Cahaya Bayangan Teduh yes but you see Jesus is GOD Because he didn’t know the day of judgement / he had limited knowledge, Jesus couldn’t do everything by himself, he was crying for help. Jesus was tempted by the devil 👿 Jesus was a very weak god, who died for the sins of mankind. I know as a Muslim u find that hard. How can god die, but Jesus did die because god can die for every bodies sin. But he god can never ever die. God is eternal.
Cahaya Bayangan Teduh Jesus is god and god DIED what is so hard to understand even the bible says god is eternal just like the Quran says allah is absolute/eternal and will never die, Are you reading what I’m writing carefully because you don’t seem to understand what I’m telling you, read what I’ve written carefully and you will understand my message
Cahaya Bayangan Teduh you didn’t understand my message for the love of allah read it carefully example ( Jesus is god and god died, your Quran says allah doesn’t die allah is absolute eternal,bible says god is absolute eternal. Do you now understand Jesus is lord and god)
I am now 74 yrs old My father took my family to the theatre to show us The Bible Story when I wsa 5 yrs old.. The thoughts of my childhood days rejuvenates me.I feel much happy .🎉🎉🎉
Muslims, Pay attention! The people were delivered by a Shepherd's staff, NOT the sword! The Bible is many layers deep. The old testament has many passages that foretold ofJesus's coming to save the world. Born in a manger. The good shepherd. His kingdom is not of this world.
@@ceilconstante640 Christian Pay attention! Jews reject your man-god. The Bible has many passages that discusses massacres done by the command of God, committed by prophets, including Moses himself.
Within inside of you is the infinite, it is light, taste, music, and a beautiful rhythm within the breath, it is who you really are, it cannot be destroyed, it was not born and it cannot die. You can experience it whilst you are alive. It can bring true peace and harmony even in this dangerous world. When we pass, the self goes back to the infinite ocean of bliss and love.
The music score is so powerful.Even listening to it makes me cry.When God told him to remove his shoes ,that he was on Holy ground.God,it gets me everytime that he was standing in the presence of the most highest.
Yes it is in quran this story is related in very nice poetry. The difference is it doesn't mention Joshua. But Moses tells his family that he sees fire and will bring back some fire and some news from where the light is. He according to quran hears God who tells him to take off his shoes as he is on holy ground. There is no angel apparition mentioned.
So u can at least barely imagine how you may feel being in front of an angel apparition and why all those people fell face on the ground. Imagine more what may be to be in front of God🤯
My favorite movie of all time. As a boy growing up in the 1970's I would look forward to seeing it. I eventually bought it on vhs and years later on DVD. I get so much more emotional as an adult than as a boy when I saw it. Thank you Cecil for re-doing this film from your previous effort some 30 years earlier. Thanks for the all star cast in acting out these roles and the people who helped make this quite possibly the greatest film ever.
I see why this movie won so many academy awards, the music the cast was incredible from Moses to Ramses, I watched this as a little kid I always been my Easter favorite. ITS SAD THAT THE COMMANMENTS THAT GOD HAS WRITTEN WERE NEVER DONE BY SOME😢 IM GLAD THERE WILL BE A SECOND COMING OF CHRIST.
I like when they were discussing Moses and Nefiteri said to Moses wife,"I lost him when he went to seek his God"and Moses wife tells her "I lost him when he found his God".Powerful.This is a classic and I bet that I have seen it over thirty times and it always intrigues me.
I have always had trouble with that line, because that line, in my eyes, seems to be stating that God seperates families, and yet God is the creator of the family unit, the same as he is the creator of every good thing. And if you read in Exodus, after sending his family away from Egypt, so they would not witness what was to befall it, Moses' family rejoined him when encamped at Mount Siani, when Jethro came to visit Moses, and evidently Moses' family continued with him through the wilderness trek.

This is the best movie I have ever seen! It truly has power. This should be played in grade school. The world would be so much a better place. KEEP GOD FIRST!
Whenever I entered the Lord's presence I take the shoes off of my feet and I mean that I bow down and holy fear and reverence of the most high God cuz he's my master he's my king he's my savior Redeemer he's my everything he's my joy and Delight he's my sovereign God
the bible says Moses saw the back of God but in the Quran it says that Allah made a mountain crumble before his eyes and Moses fainted and Allah ﷻ told him that he could not see Him ﷻ in this life!
@@muslimresponse103 You Muslims don't know who you serve. There is only one way to God the father dear and that way Is through the son Jesus Christ who himself is God🙏🏼. God bless you.
@@Jesusisstillking123 we Muslims know exactly who we "serve", that is Allah/God Almighty! the God of Prophets Noah and Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad ﷺ Prophet Jesus عليه السلام also served the same God called Elah in ancient Hebrew and Aramaic or Allah in Arabic. it is you christians who dont know who you serve and have been arguing amongst yourself for 2,000 years about who Jesus is, wether he is god or the son of god, divine or not, etc. whereas we Muslims are very clear on who Is Allah ﷻ and who is Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and who is Prophet Issa/Jesus عليه السلام the messiah.
@the.seagull.35 what do you mean the only one. where are the words of Prophet Noah and Abraham or Moses today? lost! the jewish bible/torah is also corrupt and full of fabrications like the christian bibles. so no this did not happen with only the words and actions of Prophet Jesus عليه السلام its normal for it to happen because in time people forget and then fabricate after decades and centuries. historians know this very well. Prophet Muhammad ﷺ being the final prophet of Allah ﷻ God Almighty had his message preserved because there are no other messages and Messengers coming from God. very simple to understand!
@@Pototoe-wu9uyhow and why would God pray to God? makes no sense! Prophet Jesus عليه السلام was a Messenger of Allah/God just like Moses, Jacob, Isaac, Ishmael, Abraham and Noah before him and Prophet Muhammad ﷺ after him being the final messenger of Allah/God Almighty!
One of the best parts in the whole movie..... because God reveals himself to Moses through the Holy Spirit, it's almost like Moses was forever changed and Gods purpose was furfilled before our very eyes. 🙌 💓
joe s NO” destiny is the absence of free will!! yet we all know each and every human being has (FREE WILL) therefore God respects us so fervently he will not even help us unless we ask!! so he presents his law of love and we are given the choice to observe or ignore!!! each choice has its consequence.
TrustInFaith destiny /ˈdɛstɪni/ Learn to pronounce noun the events that will necessarily happen to a particular person or thing in the future. "she was unable to control her own destiny" the hidden power believed to control future events; fate. "he believed in destiny" synonyms: future, fate, fortune, doom; More THE OPPOSITE IF FREE WILL!!! because different choices lead to different conclusions
My favorite Scene, Moses features Changes dramatically after Speaking to God, The God of Abraham, the God of Issac and the God Jacob, powerful words, Joshua has Other ideas bless his Heart,
Imagine the feeling you would have that God chose you! That he came and spoke to you! Imagine how worthy you would feel. No other vindication on earth could match.
You’re a fool god so powerful he doesn’t need to intervene he send good men like Moses to do the job for him not only are they chosen ones but he also is testing his creation
@@brotherkareem181That's the kind of God he is. All powerful, yet loving his creation so much that He wants us to work with him in furthering His creation. He even desires our assistance in creating more humans in something called PROcreation.
The older I get, (I'm 61 now), the more I've come to deeply appreciate movies like this. Utterly fantastic. There liie will never be seen again, and we are the much poorer for it. Such movies as this took vision, peerless acting and writing, and sheer will to make. I am truly blessed to have grown up in this era.
Last week I had a bad fall and then my eyes had seen the great and blessed God and that day will come soon when I will know that he is not of flesh but of spirit and the lord will be with me ❤
Movie makes me think of my uncle so much. I was born into a churchy family and most of my childhood i always remeber the family was together watching ten commandments near christmas time but of course as a child i admired god but wanted presents and toys at the time i would turn my focus to finding christmas candy and toys lol. But i always remeber the family church, my uncle was always always doing services there. Him and his family. And i used to attend summer school at the church and i would usually pass it and draw ninja turtles in my free time. But anyway this movie and the animated church movies bring back so much memories of my uncle and his family that i love so much and this always always reminds me of that happy time. Especially christmas when he would be doing christmas service at the church. I admit i always went not particularly for the preaching...but to see the giant decorated tree, the presents, and the bags of christmas candy they handed out after. My gosh i miss that lol. But i love this movie because of the powerful message and the loving happy memories it gave 😊 god bless you sir for uploading this.
Indeed a peaceful life To heard an be shepard To have the warmth off a love ones . A love of wife an a joy to the eye of a child Underneath the holy mountain Not much more you can ask
I remember watching three movies with my mother as a child. It's a wonderful life, during Christmas. Both, The Greatest Story Ever Told, and the Ten Commandments during Easter. I use to ask my mother why do we watch the same movies year after year? Now days I really miss watching those movies and I truly miss my mom who is now resting in glory. Thanks
Beautiful n blessed woman, Zhipora.....a great woman like Mrs. Golda Meir n all powerful woman of the World. She had been in heaven now with Moses..... ❤
I love how when Moses enters before God's presence through the burning bush how quiet and calm it gets. And how gentle God calls out and speaks to him.
In 1956 as a small boy. My aunt took me to see this masterpiece. I was truly amazed. I’ve watched countless times and still marvel at it. The special effects for so long ago was amazing. The emotions I feel from it. To me the greatest movie ever made.
Also I love the line "it is not by the sword He will free His people but by the staff of a shepherd" shows how God can choose the most unlikely person on Earth to be His messenger and in this case it was the man who was their enemy who was chosen by God's incomprehensible Wisdom to be their deliverer
I remember watching it for the first time in 1978 I am 56 and I enjoy it now as much as I did then while watching it on the couch with my mother.....man how the time's has changed....
4:56 you see people!!!!....right there people....THAT IS YOUR GOD....AND THAT IS YOUR FATHER AND THAT IS YOUR CREATOR AND GOD IS YOUR MENTOR TO.... AND AND GOD IS MY GOD!!! AND GOD IS MY IINFINITY LOVE AND AND GOD IS MY FATHER AND GOD IS MY ("LIVING SPIRIT") IDOLE,AND GOD IS MY CREATOR AND GOD IS MY MENTOR AND GOD IS MY SAVIOR AND GOD IS MY LIGHT AND MY GOD IS INFINITY GOD!!!!
God's ways are different from man's ways. Joshua thought using weapons will deliver the people of Israel but he was shocked as it was to be used by the staff of a shepeard. God's teaches us his ways in an unusual way. We must learn and heed to his word in this present times. I love this movie till the end of the world.
Moses rescued the Hebrews from bondage. Jesus rescued the world. Everything the lord predicted has come to pass, less one. Jesus will be known by the whole world as the savior soon, then he will return....
The music gives me chills and I cry everytime i hear it my mom recently went to be with God my mom and dad when they started dating saw zhis movie at a drive in so this movie holds a very important place in my heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤ i miss both my mom and dad so very much o pray 🙏🙏🙏 to see them again with God and Jesus 😢😢😢😢😢😢
God almighty says *Jesus, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; [other] messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded.* Qur’an 5:75 Brother You don't know the meaning of God. God doesn't required to eat to drink to sleep. God is Independent of All. Allah is our God. He doesn't eat nor drink nor sleep. *Jesus declared, “I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.*
If you see Mr. Heston as an actor with the boy, you can imagine how he must have been in real life: A loving, caring and sincere father and husband !🙏💕
This is my favorite part of this movie. I'm 54, and I've watched this movie since I was 7, and I still watch it because it NEVER gets old. I do not get enough of this movie. Out of all the people in the Bible, besides Jesus Christ Moses is one that I look up to. Moses was a warrior and a leader, and he was a good man. If God willing, I would like to meet him if God allows me into heaven. 🥲
Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
This is one of my favorite movies I ever watched when I was young age 6. I have the CD for more than 10 years. I watch it often whenever I need to be inspired when things get difficult.
This film has a way to touch the hearts of so many generation to make them understand that God is in every one of his people, both good and bad. It is the choice of the path we take if we want to follow true.
I was raised up on this movie, I was 5 years old this movie was made, I now 72 years old and watched this movie every year for 67 years

There is no movie like this one. I’m 60 and I’ve watched this movie every year since I was 8. Charlton Heston is the only Moses for me.
He is top-tier however I do like the animated Moses from the prince of Egypt voiced by Val Kilmer.
Whenever I entered the Lord's presence I take the shoes off of my feet and I mean that I bow down and holy fear and reverence of the most high God cuz he's my master he's my king he's my savior Redeemer he's my everything he's my joy and Delight he's my sovereign God
It Must Have Been Very Beautiful and Powerful to Literally See The Glory Of God As the way Moses Seen God.
the bible says Moses saw the back of God but in the Quran it says that Allah made a mountain crumble before his eyes and Moses fainted and Allah ﷻ told him that he could not see Him ﷻ in this life!
@@muslimresponse103
You Muslims don't know who you serve. There is only one way to God the father dear and that way Is through the son Jesus Christ who himself is God🙏🏼. God bless you.
@@Jesusisstillking123 we Muslims know exactly who we "serve", that is Allah/God Almighty! the God of Prophets Noah and Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad ﷺ
Prophet Jesus عليه السلام also served the same God called Elah in ancient Hebrew and Aramaic or Allah in Arabic.
it is you christians who dont know who you serve and have been arguing amongst yourself for 2,000 years about who Jesus is, wether he is god or the son of god, divine or not, etc.
whereas we Muslims are very clear on who Is Allah ﷻ and who is Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and who is Prophet Issa/Jesus عليه السلام the messiah.
Jesus Christ Is LORDDD ❤ 🙏 🌈
@the.seagull.35 what do you mean the only one. where are the words of Prophet Noah and Abraham or Moses today? lost! the jewish bible/torah is also corrupt and full of fabrications like the christian bibles.
so no this did not happen with only the words and actions of Prophet Jesus عليه السلام
its normal for it to happen because in time people forget and then fabricate after decades and centuries. historians know this very well.
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ being the final prophet of Allah ﷻ God Almighty had his message preserved because there are no other messages and Messengers coming from God. very simple to understand!
when my heart is engraved with fears of uncertainties, I will come here to always restore my hope in God Almighty through Jesus Christ.
God didnt say Jesus Christ anywhere to Moses, so please worship God only
@@outofthebox9699Isnt Jesus God?
@@Pototoe-wu9uy No God is God, Jesus is completely different infact Jesus put his head down and prayed to God the Father
@@outofthebox9699 And? What does that mean and why isnt he God
@@Pototoe-wu9uyhow and why would God pray to God? makes no sense!
Prophet Jesus عليه السلام was a Messenger of Allah/God just like Moses, Jacob, Isaac, Ishmael, Abraham and Noah before him and Prophet Muhammad ﷺ after him being the final messenger of Allah/God Almighty!
that look she gave the camera..yeah i know my eyes are beautiful..
They sure are. Miss De Carlo had gorgeous eyes. De Mille didn’t make her wear contact lenses to disguise that beautiful color
Read NUMBER chapter 12 and verse 1.
Moses married an Ethiopian woman.
All Cush are Africans. Google it.
Lol. I can't believe she is the one who played Lily Munster. Don't look like the same woman. She was SO beautiful.
Praise be to GOD grant me your strength. So I have FAITH. Thank you my lord
My favorite part, make me cry every time. I am that I am amen 🙏🏾
Yes! My favorite scripture.
The music at the end just send chills! They don’t make movies like this anymore!
They can but they won't.
When movies glorified God...
@@rc.... glorifying mythical BULLSHIT
Now they glorify the other guy.
@@Mattamillion-vk2pf Typical full of ctap arrogant religious nut BS. AMEN 🙏
Its a Shame that movies dont anymore.. Yet this new woke love the Devil.. We must all still hold to our faith even stronger in this new age.
With character arcs & lessons for the ages😇
One of the best parts in the whole movie..... because God reveals himself to Moses through the Holy Spirit, it's almost like Moses was forever changed and Gods purpose was furfilled before our very eyes. 🙌 💓
"I will turn aside and see this great sight." 🔥✝️📖
7:38-7:46 is beautiful.. A man that found his purpose and is walking with it. Chuck Heston with a lifetime performance.
Indeed he has found it. 🥹🙏🏻
God does Not Ask anyone anything. He Tells us, Commands us.

NO” destiny is the absence of free will!! yet we all know each and every human being has (FREE WILL) therefore God respects us so fervently he will not even help us unless we ask!! so he presents his law of love and we are given the choice to observe or ignore!!!
each choice has its consequence.
If that were true .. than why are so many lost today?
Know them as a Words of Knowledge, not Commands.
@@mattkylie6723 No. Destiny is not the absence of free will. We choose our own destiny with every choice we make.
@@mattkylie6723 No you didn't. You said that destiny can't exist because it contradicts free will. Which is simply not true.

destiny
/ˈdɛstɪni/

the events that will necessarily happen to a particular person or thing in the future.
"she was unable to control her own destiny"
the hidden power believed to control future events; fate.
"he believed in destiny"

THE OPPOSITE IF FREE WILL!!! because different choices lead to different conclusions
My favorite Scene, Moses features Changes dramatically after Speaking to God, The God of Abraham, the God of Issac and the God Jacob, powerful words, Joshua has Other ideas bless his Heart,
Vera Wallace Who’s name is Jehovah
Imagine the feeling you would have that God chose you! That he came and spoke to you! Imagine how worthy you would feel. No other vindication on earth could match.
That’s not a god if it need you.😂
You’re a fool god so powerful he doesn’t need to intervene he send good men like Moses to do the job for him not only are they chosen ones but he also is testing his creation
God is real you better start believing it stop thinking the impossible is not possible
@@brotherkareem181That's the kind of God he is. All powerful, yet loving his creation so much that He wants us to work with him in furthering His creation. He even desires our assistance in creating more humans in something called PROcreation.
@@anilomd Man please nobody never seen that so called fake god that you speak of.
I am not the man, yes you are ,never gets tired of watching this
I remember being at work and saw this trailer and I went on my lunch break to the nearest store to buy the CD. Best movie I ever bought..
GOD bless all the good people on earth~!!!
AMEN

Glory Mosby this film is incorrect
Amen. I also feel that this story might be replaying itself, but in a different way. I may not know how, but I feel that it is.

The greatest movie ever produced... followed by Ben Hur.
Praise the LORD GOD in the mighty name of JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH AMEN

No! your comment is wrong , it is " praise jesus christ of nazareth in the name of God almighty , god of abraham , god of isaac and god of jacob
Amen
Hahaha 😂😂 mga ligaw kayu Isa propeta sia Indi Panginoon 😂🤣
The older I get, (I'm 61 now), the more I've come to deeply appreciate movies like this. Utterly fantastic. There liie will never be seen again, and we are the much poorer for it. Such movies as this took vision, peerless acting and writing, and sheer will to make. I am truly blessed to have grown up in this era.
Last week I had a bad fall and then my eyes had seen the great and blessed God and that day will come soon when I will know that he is not of flesh but of spirit and the lord will be with me ❤
Every Christmas I watch Ben Hur and Ten Commandments. It's become a holiday tradition. Awesome movies, never to be repeated.
Every easter I have seen ten commandments ben hur wizard of oz and peanuts holiday specials easter Christmas valentines Thanksgiving
Love this movie..saw it when I was 9yrs old and whenever I get the chance I watch it again...no one plays Moses like Charlton Heston
..
It just make me cry thinking of his grace. I'm knot worthy. Thank you for not forsaken me.
Knot? Of course we're not worthy. That's why we need Jesus. Only when we are in Him are we worthy because the Father then sees us in His Son.
Movies like this one are rare. I am not sure they could make something like this today. So many great actors and scenes.
God is One True God and Lord of all worlds. Very inspiring 👏🏿
Movie makes me think of my uncle so much. I was born into a churchy family and most of my childhood i always remeber the family was together watching ten commandments near christmas time but of course as a child i admired god but wanted presents and toys at the time i would turn my focus to finding christmas candy and toys lol. But i always remeber the family church, my uncle was always always doing services there. Him and his family. And i used to attend summer school at the church and i would usually pass it and draw ninja turtles in my free time. But anyway this movie and the animated church movies bring back so much memories of my uncle and his family that i love so much and this always always reminds me of that happy time. Especially christmas when he would be doing christmas service at the church. I admit i always went not particularly for the preaching...but to see the giant decorated tree, the presents, and the bags of christmas candy they handed out after. My gosh i miss that lol. But i love this movie because of the powerful message and the loving happy memories it gave 😊 god bless you sir for uploading this.
Christmas is just another day to me. Yeah, I know that's sad but it is what it is.
Me Myself
Only islam is real religion in this universe
@@RashidAhmad-kf7sy And Islam holds Moses as a prophet of God. So, what's yer point smart guy?
Indeed a peaceful life
To heard an be shepard
To have the warmth off a love ones .
A love of wife an a joy to the eye of a child
Underneath the holy mountain
Not much more you can ask
so beautiful... I remember as a child the first time I saw this film... 40 years later came my conversion; thank you, Jesus my Lord and my God
This time God blessed me to see His glory.... Amen... Thank you Lord.... Hallelujah
This scene always hits me in the feels. I’m not ashamed to admit that I am moved and 😭 up every time.
Fire of God in the mountian Amazing Brilliant Cecel B. Damelle😊
I can't count how many times I've Viewed this Movie; but the line; " He Has Seen God " always sends chills up my spine.
I know... wow!
I remember watching three movies with my mother as a child. It's a wonderful life, during Christmas. Both, The Greatest Story Ever Told, and the Ten Commandments during Easter. I use to ask my mother why do we watch the same movies year after year? Now days I really miss watching those movies and I truly miss my mom who is now resting in glory. Thanks
I watched this Master piece when Iwas a student.now I am 61 . Every time I enjoy watching.
I knew gods power by watch this movie in 7 class... It was changed my life....
Such a beautiful movie and such reverence and poetic language. Truly virtuous.
I remember my grandma taking me to Radio City Music Hall to see this when it first came out and I was like 5
Beautiful n blessed woman, Zhipora.....a great woman like Mrs. Golda Meir n all powerful woman of the World. She had been in heaven now with Moses.....
❤
Look how long ago this was and the special effects were amazing.
I love how when Moses enters before God's presence through the burning bush how quiet and calm it gets. And how gentle God calls out and speaks to him.
This scene, gives me the chills! The Amazing, ALL knowing, ALL LOVING MIGHTY CREATOR, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
In 1956 as a small boy. My aunt took me to see this masterpiece. I was truly amazed. I’ve watched countless times and still marvel at it. The special effects for so long ago was amazing. The emotions I feel from it. To me the greatest movie ever made.
Also AMEN.
GOD BLESS US EVERYONE EVERYWHERE. ❤🕊🌎
I can watch this movie a million times and never get tired of it. The lord never tires our minds.
Also I love the line "it is not by the sword He will free His people but by the staff of a shepherd" shows how God can choose the most unlikely person on Earth to be His messenger and in this case it was the man who was their enemy who was chosen by God's incomprehensible Wisdom to be their deliverer
I remember watching it for the first time in 1978 I am 56 and I enjoy it now as much as I did then while watching it on the couch with my mother.....man how the time's has changed....
April 15, 1979. Began my love for this movie. Easter Sunday that year.
Thank you very much & God bless
No human has being has ever seen god The almighty. Our lord, so merciful is too powerful. May Jesus have mercy upon us. Amen.
Amen! Praise our LORD and SAVIOUR!
Hello friend 😀
4:56 you see people!!!!....right there people....THAT IS YOUR GOD....AND THAT IS YOUR FATHER AND THAT IS YOUR CREATOR AND GOD IS YOUR MENTOR TO....
AND AND GOD IS MY GOD!!! AND GOD IS MY IINFINITY LOVE AND AND GOD IS MY FATHER AND GOD IS MY ("LIVING SPIRIT") IDOLE,AND GOD IS MY CREATOR AND GOD IS MY MENTOR AND GOD IS MY SAVIOR AND GOD IS MY LIGHT AND MY GOD IS INFINITY GOD!!!!
God's ways are different from man's ways. Joshua thought using weapons will deliver the people of Israel but he was shocked as it was to be used by the staff of a shepeard.
God's teaches us his ways in an unusual way. We must learn and heed to his word in this present times. I love this movie till the end of the world.
Been watching this movie every year since I was a kid.Love it.
Moses rescued the Hebrews from bondage. Jesus rescued the world. Everything the lord predicted has come to pass, less one. Jesus will be known by the whole world as the savior soon, then he will return....
V had seen thisvmovie at metro from school taken wen i was 12 yrs old n now i m 75 yrs but still d movie is fresh in ny heart😢
I remember way back 90s and 2000s every Holy Week this film is a staple to shown on tv.
7:00 The most beautiful moment.....
GOD of GODS 🙏💖🙏
Jesus, King of kings!!
GOD of gods
He is coming back sooner than we think and I am a sinner for now he is coming back soon from the west soon 2greateeawesatherdi
The music gives me chills and I cry everytime i hear it my mom recently went to be with God my mom and dad when they started dating saw zhis movie at a drive in so this movie holds a very important place in my heart ❤❤❤❤❤❤ i miss both my mom and dad so very much o pray 🙏🙏🙏 to see them again with God and Jesus 😢😢😢😢😢😢
God almighty says
*Jesus, son of Mary, was not but a messenger; [other] messengers have passed on before him. And his mother was a supporter of truth. They both used to eat food. Look how We make clear to them the signs; then look how they are deluded.*
Qur’an 5:75
Brother You don't know the meaning of God.
God doesn't required to eat to drink to sleep.
God is Independent of All.
Allah is our God.
He doesn't eat nor drink nor sleep.
*Jesus declared, “I am truly a servant of Allah. He has destined me to be given the Scripture and to be a prophet.*
If you see Mr. Heston as an actor with the boy, you can imagine how he must have been in real life: A loving, caring and sincere father and husband !🙏💕
You may be unaware that Charlton Heston's then-three-month-old son Fraser made a quick appearance as baby Moses floating in the basket.
Could never get tired of watching this movie
They need to bring movies like this back.
I've first watched it when I was 6 years old back in 1996. Now at 34 I still watch this. Glory be to God almighty, the most powerful of all. Amen❤
This is my favorite part of this movie. I'm 54, and I've watched this movie since I was 7, and I still watch it because it NEVER gets old. I do not get enough of this movie. Out of all the people in the Bible, besides Jesus Christ Moses is one that I look up to. Moses was a warrior and a leader, and he was a good man. If God willing, I would like to meet him if God allows me into heaven. 🥲
Romans 10:9
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Hello friend 👋
Dude. I remember how profound it was to watch this in Black & White in the mid '60s, with my parents. Still just as profound today!
This is one of my favorite movies I ever watched when I was young age 6. I have the CD for more than 10 years. I watch it often whenever I need to be inspired when things get difficult.
Still one of the best movies ever made, in terms of acting, cinematography, this movie has it all and couldn't be duplicated in the modern era.
When I watch this movie I am transported back to being 7 years old back to innocence
Lord thanks for the strength the bread in the life everyday ❤praise god
The voice was also Mr Charles Huston what a magnificent voice 😊Apostle Dr Matthews
And one day I too, shall see God! I don't need a street of gold to walk on, or a mansion to live in. I just need to be at God's feet forever and ever!
This film has a way to touch the hearts of so many generation to make them understand that God is in every one of his people, both good and bad. It is the choice of the path we take if we want to follow true.
God is the way, truth, and the light, and no one come to the father except by me
THE ALMIGHTY GOD 😊❤BLESS YOUR HOLY NAME 🙏 LORD...AMEN HALLELUJAH THAT I GET TO EXPERIENCE SUCH WONDERFULNESS...
