The Ten Commandments 4K 1956

Moses and the 10 commandments. This story was told in different ways by many directors in many films, and even cartoons. But this particular adaptation with actor Charlton Heston in the title role, I consider the best of all that was and ever will be!

Indeed, everyone has heard this story and knows about it. About a baby in a basket, the son of a slave girl, whom God allowed to be saved in times of persecution. About a boy who grew up in the palace of the pharaoh as a full member of the family and as a prince of Egypt. He knows nothing about his true origin and the great mission that he has to fulfill. He has a real family and everything he needs in this life. He is a wise and strong prince of Egypt. His name is Moses.

But at one point he loses everything. Family, position, one might say, life. Loses this when he saves a slave on the counter, whose clothes are pressed by a huge plate. The spy kills. And he is told his true origins. That he is not the son of Pharaoh, but the son of a slave - a Jew. Moses himself makes the decision to be who he really is.

From here comes his great mission, which he does not even suspect. He becomes a slave, then an exile, but God gives him strength and life. Moses visits the Holy Mountain, where he sees an unburnable bush of thorns, and God spoke to him. He reveals to Moses his true purpose. And Moses accepts him because he believes that the Lord will be with him.

The Lord showed many wonders and signs through Moses. Egypt was overtaken by ten curses because of the stubbornness of the new Pharaoh. Moses delivered the Jews from years of slavery and led them to the promised land. But the hearts of people so easily succumb to temptation and doubt ..

This story teaches us a lot. First of all, trust in God. Because, trusting in God's guidance, we will always be under His protection and protection and will not make wrong steps and mistakes. This story clearly shows that God is always with us, as He was with Moses always and everywhere.

History also teaches us that we must not forget about the True Living God and did not create idols for ourselves.

So that we live according to God's commandments, which He gave us through Moses.

And history also teaches us humility. How to accept all difficulties, dangers and hardships. The way Moses did it. After all, it is not for nothing that he is called the most humble person on earth ..

All these thoughts are very clearly conveyed by this film. Acting, scenery, even special effects leave the impression that we see everything as in reality. I was especially struck by the image of the passions of Egypt, and especially the latter - the hand of the angel of death ...

The film is large-scale, instructive, powerful. What more i can say? Look! After watching such films, you change internally for the better. That's why I appreciate the movie 'The Ten Commandments'
