Let’s explore the historical context to see what we really know. So, we need to ask: did Moses go against Ramses when he returned to Egypt? Or is there something we have unintentionally overlooked? Let’s crack open our Bibles. However, between the movies, Sunday School lessons, and church plays, we may forget that liberties always get taken in retellings. If you’re like me, you grew up watching The Prince of Egypt, where the ruler that Moses goes toe-to-toe with is named Ramses.
If there is any Old Testament we easily remember, it is the Exodus 1-14 story about the Israelites escaping Egypt.
