Resource | Moses at the Movies | Lectionary 25A | Exodus 16:2-15

 


Moses (1995).  

Starring Ben Kingsley (Moses), Frank Langella (Merneptah), Christopher Lee (Ramesses), and Geraldine McEwan (Miriam).  

The Israelites awaken to discover “manna” falling like large snowflakes.  As it accumulates on shrubs, they taste this bread from heaven.  “It is delicious!”  “Like coriander seed!”  After the intense scenes we’ve watched in previous weeks, it is nice to see the joyful expressions on the faces of Moses, Miriam, Aaron, and the others as they receive the gifts of manna and quail from the Lord.  Watch a short clip at tinyurl.com/MosesMovie05.
