Exodus: Gods and Kings Page #2
I'll go down there myself.
Stop!
- Why is he being punished?
- Persistent troublemaker, My Lord.
Why is he smiling?
He says he feels no pain, My Lord.
Then why whip him?
You were not gathered up at random.
I asked to see
the elders.
Come on. What do you pray for?
- We pray to see Canaan again.
- Canaan again? You've never seen it.
I've seen Canaan.
I've seen that it's inhabited
by tribes fiercer than Egypt's military.
So, you won't be returning to it
- or, if you do, from it.
- God says otherwise.
Which God? Your God? The God of Abraham?
The God that says that you are special?
That you are chosen? Let me tell...
Come here. Up. Come here.
He's wrong.
I can see you're unconvinced,
and that's a problem.
Because next to unrealistic belief lies
fanaticism. And next to that, sedition,
and next to that, revolution.
And it all starts with the elders.
- What's your name?
- What's yours?
I'll tell you. I am Moses, son of Bithia,
grandson of Horemheb.
Record this one's name and the rest
of them. Bring in the next group.
My name is Nun.
My Lord!
- Stop there!
- Let him through.
There's something the elder
has to tell you. But not here.
- Say where and when.
- The prayer house, tonight.
Here.
I see you've survived your adventure.
- Sorry to make you wait again.
- I'm not waiting.
- How was your trip to the quarry?
- Fine.
You saw what I'm up against.
Tell me, is there any more of my records
I could get for you before you leave?
You can tell me... Has all of this
been reported to Memphis?
Was it approved?
Do you have it in writing?
- Of course. It's on record.
- So you don't mind if we check?
Of course I don't mind.
But I don't understand what's gone wrong.
Have I done something to displease you?
And if so, is there any way
You can stop living like a king.
You're not one.
"...and you will occupy
the land of Canaan."
- God promises we will return.
In chains or in coffins?
As free men into a land flowing
with milk and honey.
Can they at least wait outside?
We're not dangerous.
Wait by the horses.
- Do you believe in coincidence?
- As much as anything else.
- I don't think this is one.
- What isn't?
You coming to Pithom. Why did you come?
Business.
Sit.
Who's your father?
I know you don't know his name. Only that
he was a general in Pharaoh's army...
Unnamed by your mother.
I can see this is
making you uncomfortable.
This will interest you.
There was no general.
Your mother... The woman you call
your mother, has no children.
You were born a slave.
- Don't go. Don't go.
- It's better for you that I do.
I'm leaving.
If you leave now, you'll just come back
