The Ten Commandments on the script

2021-12-30 17:21
The name of any pharaoh is never mentioned in the Bible. However, the film sets Ramses II as the pharaoh that Moses must flee. The evidence supporting this statement is the statement in Exodus that the Hebrews built the city of Ramses and named it after the pharaoh. Some experts believe that the pharaoh in "Exodus" is Thutmose III, about one or two centuries earlier than Ramses II   .
The final filming script was written by Aeneas MacKenzie, Jesse L. Lasky Jr., Jack Gariss and Fredric M. Frank. Part of the script also includes materials from books such as Dorothy Clarke Wilson's, Joseph Holt Ingraham'sand Arthur Eustace Southon's. The film’s researcher Henry Noerdlinger also consulted ancient historical documents such as, Philo'sand the works of Josephus and Eusebius to fill in missing years in Moses's life   .

    The two Ramses are very interesting...one believes in science, and the other is sincere to face his own heart (all kinds of challenges - so don't believe the nonsense that women want each other to be happy after breaking up?)

    The filming ability of the acting directors of the drama actors are very good

The Ten Commandments quotes

  • Dathan: For ten talents of gold, I'll give you the wealth of Egypt! Give me my freedom and I'll give you the scepter! Give me the water girl, Lillia, and I'll give you the princess of your heart's desire. Give me this house of Baka's and I'll give you the throne! Give me all that I ask... or give me leave to go.

  • Dathan: Joshua's strength didn't kill the master builder.

    Rameses: Now speaks the rat that would be my ears.

    Dathan: Too many ears tie a rat's tongue.

    Rameses: [to the Egyptian soldiers] Go, all of you!

    [turns to Dathan]

    Rameses: Well... who killed him?

    Dathan: I am a poor man, Generous One; what I bring is worth much.

    Rameses: I have paid you much, and you have brought me nothing.

    Dathan: Now I bring you the world... true Son of Pharaoh.

    Rameses: You offer me the world when you cannot even bring me the deliverer. Who killed Baka?

    Dathan: The deliverer.

    Rameses: Would you play at words with me?

    Dathan: No, Lord Prince.

    Rameses: And this murderer has now fled to some distant land?

    Dathan: No, Lord Prince.

    Rameses: Name him.

    Dathan: One who made himself a prince and judge over us; and if he knew I were here, he would kill me as he killed the Egyptian.

    Rameses: I will hang you myself if you tire me further.

    Dathan: There are those who would pay much for what my eyes have seen.

    Rameses: Do you haggle with me like a seller of melons in the marketplace?

    Dathan: No, I will not haggle, Great Prince; here's your money. But for ten talents of fine gold, I'll give you the wealth of Egypt. Give me my freedom, and I'll give you the scepter. Give me the water girl Lilia, and I'll give you the princess of your heart's desire. Give me this house of Baka, and I'll give you the throne. Give me all that I ask... or give me leave to go.

    Rameses: I will give you more than leave to go; I will send you where you belong.

    Dathan: I belong in your service, Glorious One.

    Rameses: Very well, I will bargain with you. If what you say pleases me, I will give you your price, all of it; if not, I will give you the point of this blade through your lying throat, agreed?

    Dathan: Agreed; the deliverer... is Moses.

    Rameses: Draw one more breath to tell me why Moses or any other Egyptian would deliver the Hebrews?

    Dathan: Moses is not Egyptian; he's Hebrew, the son of slaves.
