Home THE BIBLE UNEARTHED: THE MAKING OF A RELIGION -- ILLUSTRATED SCREENPLAY & SCREENCAP GALLERY |
|
The Israelites' LONG SOJOURN in Egypt, their ENSLAVEMENT, and LIBERATION, and the LAW received by Moses, represent the core of the second book of the Bible. The Bible tells us that under the leadership of this EXCEPTIONAL man -- Moses -- the Hebrew people RETURNED to the land that had been PROMISED their ancestors. Our investigation will begin in Lausanne, in the library of a theology department to be exact. Thomas Romer is a Biblical scholar. He will be accompanying us in the investigation of these texts. In order to understand the role played by Egypt in the Bible, we have to go back to the circumstances surrounding the arrival of Jacob's sons in that country.
