In the divided land of Egypt some are masters and the rest are slaves, While the queen and her handmaidens bathe in the water gardens, the Hebrews toil under the hot sun, building a great empire. Pharaoh's sons race their chariots through the city, destroying a month's work in a careless minute. And ruling over them all is Pharaoh, a man of dreadful power. Prince Moses is proud to be Pharaoh's son and Rameses' beloved brother. But soon he will discover that his life is a lie. He will learn how a Hebrew slave -- his birth mother -- set him adrift in a basket to save his life. And in this truth, Moses will find his destiny. For God has chosen him to lead the Hebrew people out of Egypt.to freedom.
