FAQ for
The Ten Commandments (1956) More at IMDbPro »

Moses leads the Israelites -with God's help- out of slavery in Egypt, through the parted red sea, to Mount Sinai, where he receives The Ten Commandments. The film ends at the point where the Israelites are about to cross into the "Promised Land" after wandering for 40 years in the desert. Moses, it is explained, has angered God and is not allowed to go. He passes on to Joshua the Ten Commandments and his other writings (which become the first five books of the Old Testament).
