Once there was a happy child, and his friends they numbered four. One was hungry, one was hyper. One was busy and did chores
And the fourth was shy and colored salmon, he was young and he was small. While his friends asked all the questions, he rarely spoke at all.
The hungry one asked the child, is this the day with honey? When we dip our apples, or our paws if you are me.
And the child shook his head, oh silly bear! The day of which your thinking, isn't in the spring air.
Then the hyper one asked the child, as he bounced up and down. Is this the day with the Torah? When we dance round and round?
As the child laughed out loud, he did say a response. That day is Simcha Torah, that's the Torah renaissance.
Now the child told his friends, this is the day when jews were freed. When we eat our fill of matzah, because of no time to knead.
The busy one proudly spoke up, this is the day with the chores. When we rid the house of chametz, how could it ever be a bore?
The shy one whispered softly, did you here that tap on the door? Could it be Elijah? or simply Eeyore?
Now the friends they did celebrate, of their freedom in the wood. The holiday of Passover, the holiday so good.
Compare and Contrast
-The film shows an accurate depiction of the oppression of the
Hebrews in Egypt
-Scripture tells us that midwives were instructed to kill Hebrew
boys. The film depicts soldiers doing so.
-Scripture tells us that Moses was placed in a basket in the
reeds. The film depicts Moses’ basket on a harrowing journey
down the river.
-Scripture tells us that Pharaoh’s daughter finds the child and
raises Moses as her own. The film depicts Pharaoh’s wife finding
him and raising him as a “prince of Egypt” – the brother of
Ramses, the future Pharaoh.
-The film does not mention Moses’ mother nursing Moses as is
told in Scripture
-Scripture tells us that Moses murdered the Egyptian out of
anger. The film depicts the event as more of an accident.
-Scripture tells us that Moses later is breaking up a fight
between 2 Hebrews when he begins to fear for his own life. The
film depicts his fears coming to the surface in discussion with his
“brother” Ramses (a fictional relationship).
-The film has some of the dialogue rearranged (out of
sequence). Otherwise it is fairly accurate.
-Scripture tells us that God identifies himself as “I am who am.”
The film uses “I am that I am.”
-Scripture tells us that Aaron accompanied Moses to help him
speak since Moses was not eloquent. The film does not include
this.
-The biggest difference here is that in the film, Moses and
Pharaoh are “brothers” who are joyfully reunited. Scripture tells
us that no such relationship existed and the name Ramses is not
mentioned in the Exodus story.
-Scripture tells us that Aaron accompanied Moses to visit
Pharaoh and that Aaron’s staff (snake) swallowed the other
staffs (snakes).
-The film depicts Moses as a young man although Scripture tells
us that Moses was 80 years old when he spoke to Pharaoh.
-Again, Scripture tells us that Aaron accompanied Moses while
the film depicts Moses acting alone.
-The film quickly glosses over plagues 2 through 9 while
Scripture provides detailed accounts of each.
-Scripture tells us that Moses informs Pharaoh of the 10th
Plague: the death of the firstborn. The film seems to depict
Pharaoh himself announcing the final plague.
-Scripture provides great detail about the Passover ritual
whereas the film glosses over the details.
-The film makes no mention of Moses bringing along Joseph’s
bones as is told in Scripture.
-The film also depicts the column of fire suddenly appearing as if
for the first time while Scripture tells us that it led them the
whole way.
-Scripture tells us that the Lord brought a strong wind that blew
all night to create the dry land. The film depicts it as a sudden
event.
-The film depicts Pharaoh as participating in the charge and
being swept by the waters while Scripture makes no mention of
Pharaoh’s participation in the pursuit.
The film quickly jumps ahead to show Moses descending the
mountain with the Ten Commandments skipping over Scriptures
accounts of the journey through the desert.
[Chorus]
Thus saith the Lord:
Since you refuse to free my people
All through the land of Egypt...
I send a pestilence and plague
Into your house, into your bed
Into your streams, into your streets
Into your drink, into your bread
Upon your cattle, on your sheep
Upon your oxen in your field
Into your dreams, into your sleep
Until you break, until you yield
I send the swarm, I send the horde
Thus saith the Lord
[Moses]
Once I called you brother
Once I thought the chance
to make you laugh
Was all I ever wanted...
I send the thunder from the sky
I send the fire raining down
[Moses]
And even now I wish that God
had chose another
Serving s your foe on his behalf
Is the last thing that I wanted...
[Chorus]
I send a hail of burning ice
On ev'ry field, on ev'ry town
[Moses]
This was my home
All this pain and devastation
How it tortures me inside
All the innocent who suffer
From your stubbornness and pride...
[Chorus]
I send the locusts on a wind
Such as the world has never seen
On ev'ry leaf, on ev'ry stalk
Until there's nothing left of green
I send my scourge, I send my sword
Thus saith the Lord!
[Moses]
You who I called brother
Why must you call down another blow?
[Chorus]
I send my scourge, I send my sword
[Moses]
Let my people go!
[Moses and Chorus]
Thus saith the Lord!
[Rameses]
You who I called brother
How could you have come to hate me so?
Is this what you wanted?
[Chorus]
I send the swarm, I send the horde...
[Rameses]
Then let my heart be hardened
And never mind how high the cost may grow
This will still be so:
I will never let your people go...
[Chorus]
Thus saith the Lord:
[Moses]
Thus saith the Lord:
[Rameses]
I will not...
[Moses, Rameses, and Chorus]
Let your/my people go!
