Lhistoire de Moïse 

• Les hébreux de cette époque sont considérés comme
  des esclaves et travaillent à la construction des
  villes de Pi-Ramsès et de Pithom. Moise, élevé
  par les Egyptiens se rebelle en voyant l'un des
  siens frappé par un chef de chantier Egyptien. Il
  est contraint de quitter l'Egypte pour échapper à
  la justice. Au cours d'une longue période d'exil,
  le pharaon d'Egypte meurt et Moise peut enfin
  revenir en Egypte réclamer à Mineptah la
  permission de faire sortir son peuple d'Egypte
  pour aller prier le dieu unique Yahvé.
• Le pharaon furieux, double les corvées des
  hébreux. Moise lui présente une nouvelle fois sa
  requête, mais le pharaon refuse. Dieu déclenche
  alors sa colère contre pharaon. Il abat sur
  l'Egypte une série de terribles fléaux au terme
  desquels pharaon fini par céder et laisse partir
  le peuple hébreu.
• Arrivé devant la mer des joncs, Moise et son
  peuple poursuivi par Pharaon et son armée
  traverse celle-ci entre deux murs d'eau qui se
  rabattent sur le pharaon et le tuent.
