Moses and the Pharaoh

Courage Pixar style

A courageous 10-year-old boy named Moses embarks on a journey to free his people from the oppressive rule of the Pharaoh in ancient Egypt. Despite many challenges and setbacks, Moses learns to trust in himself and his mission, eventually leading his people to freedom.

Once upon a time, in a land called Egypt, there lived a brave baby named Moses. But his story begins in a basket on the river!

When Moses was just a baby, the king of Egypt, Pharaoh, was worried. He didn’t want the Hebrew babies to grow up strong. So, Moses’ mother placed him in a basket and sent him floating on the Nile River to keep him safe.

One sunny day, Pharaoh’s daughter came to the river to play. She saw the basket and heard a sweet baby cry. - Oh, look! A baby! I will take him home and name him Moses!

Moses grew up in the palace, surrounded by luxury. But he always remembered he was a Hebrew. His heart ached for his people, who were working hard and not treated fairly.

One day, Moses saw an Egyptian treating a Hebrew badly. Moses couldn’t stand it! In a moment of anger, he stood up for the Hebrew and accidentally hurt the Egyptian.

Moses knew he had to escape. He ran away to a faraway land called Midian. There, he found a new home and became a shepherd, caring for sheep.

One day, while tending his sheep, Moses saw a bush that was on fire but didn’t burn up! Curious, he approached it. - Moses! a voice called. It was God!

Don’t be afraid, said God. I have a special mission for you. Go back to Egypt and lead my people to freedom!

Moses felt scared. - But I can’t speak well! What if they don’t believe me? God assured him, - I will be with you, and I will give you the words.

With his brother Aaron by his side, Moses returned to Egypt. Together, they told Pharaoh, - Let my people go! But Pharaoh said no. He was stubborn!

God sent ten mighty plagues to convince Pharaoh: rivers turned to blood, frogs hopped everywhere, and more! Finally, Pharaoh said, - Go!

The Hebrew people cheered! They packed their things and left Egypt, following Moses through the desert toward freedom.

But Pharaoh changed his mind and sent soldiers after them. With nowhere to go, Moses raised his staff, and God parted the Red Sea! The people walked through on dry land.

When the last person crossed, the waters came crashing down, and the soldiers were gone! The Hebrews were free at last!

The people danced and sang praises to God. They were grateful to Moses for his courage and leadership.

Later, on a tall mountain, God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, rules for living a good life. Moses shared these with his people to help them live in peace.
