God tells Moses that ' I am who I am', gives Moses his powers, and endows him with the knowledge to free the Hebrews.Д«ecause Pharaoh Ramesses refuses to free the Hebrews, Egypt is struck with ten plagues. Moses, still wanting to know why God allows the Hebrews to be enslaved, climbs Mount Sinai ( Mount Horeb) and is confronted by God in the form of a bush that burns but is not consumed. He refuses but is later convinced by Zipporah to marry her. In gratitude, their father gives Moses the choice of one of them to take for his wife. When the body is discovered, Pharaoh orders Moses' arrest, but he is able to escape with the aid of Menerith.ДЄfter traveling days through the desert, Moses arrives in Midian and saves the seven daughters of Jethro from tribesmen. Moses manages to rescue the Hebrew couple by killing the Egyptian overseer and hiding the body. While Menerith leaves for a task, Moses continues his inspection only to witness an Egyptian overseer attempting to rape the wife of a Hebrew laborer. Years later, Prince Moses and Menerith inspect a building site.

Moses grows up knowing that he is not the blood brother of Menerith, but is shown his true heritage (something he knows nothing about) at about the age of 10: he is re-introduced to Jochebed, his father Amram, his brother Aaron, and his sister Miriam. Some time later, Bithia gives birth to a son Menerith, and they are raised as brothers. He is found by Pharaoh's daughter Bithia and adopted into the royal house. Moses's mother, Jochebed, saves her baby from the edict of the Pharaoh that all newborn male Hebrew children must die by placing him in a basket on the Nile River. 'The Ten Commandments (2 stars out of 5)'. ' '30 Days of Night' Leads Lifeless Crowd'. ^ 'The Ten Commandments (2007) (2007) - Weekend Box Office'.Lou Carlozo of the Chicago Tribune was more positive, stating 'There's an endearing, earnest quality to The Ten Commandments that transcends its star-studded cast and computer-generated animation'. Roger Moore of the Orlando Sentinel was also critical, writing 'a big-name voice cast doesn't cover for a script that may hit the Biblical high points but somehow misses the dramatic heart of the story', and that 'the filmmakers certainly could have used a little Veggie Tales humor'. Club wrote that it 'fails on every conceivable level' and 'seems to have been made using public-domain software, and targeted squarely at kids impressed by any brightly colored moving objects'. Joe Ledyon of Variety gave a negative review, calling it 'a well-intentioned misfire featuring 3-D CGI animation that recalls lesser vidgames of the mid-1990s'.

Moses leads the people from Egypt, ditches Ramses and his army at the parting of the Red Sea, and Moses receives the Ten Commandments and delivers them to the Hebrews. Ramses says no, the ten plagues come, and Ramses gives in only when his son is killed (as God's spirit kills all the first-born Egyptian sons). They all grow up, Ramses is now Pharaoh, God speaks to Moses, telling him to get the Hebrews from Egypt into the promised land. His brother Aaron comes forward, revealing his past and how they are actually brothers-making Moses a Hebrew.

Moses is mistaken for a Hebrew slave based on his appearance. As teens, they wrestle, but Ramses does not like Moses much, and Moses is exiled from town after Moses comes to the aid of a slave being beaten, and the beater is killed. His playmate and uncle is Ramses, the Pharaoh's son. The next morning, the Pharaoh's daughter adopts and raises him as her own, with Jochebed as his nurse growing up. The Pharaoh is a nervous man, outnumbered by his Hebrew slaves he orders them to be worked harder, that doesn't break their spirits, so he has all the newborn male babies killed Moses' parents, Amram and Jochebed, are desperate to save their baby son, and put him in a basket and send him down the river while his sister, Miram, follows to make sure he's okay.
