He was raised as Egypt's prince. He became Israel's shepherd. Between those two identities was a burning bush and forty years in the wilderness. The complete Moses narrative across three seasons — one of the most significant lives in the Hebrew scriptures and in world religious history. Season 1 covers Moses's birth and survival (the basket in the Nile, Pharaoh's daughter, his upbringing in Pharaoh's court, his killing of the Egyptian overseer, his flight to Midian, Jethro's household, Zipporah, and the burning bush). Season 2 covers the Exodus — the ten plagues, the Passover, the crossing of the Red Sea, the wilderness, Sinai, and the giving of the Law. Season 3 covers the forty years of wilderness wandering — the golden calf, the twelve spies, the generation that died in the wilderness, and Moses's final view of the Promised Land from Nebo. Season 1 — The Prince and the Shepherd Birth through burning bush. Egypt through Midian. The calling that Moses resists and finally accepts. Season 2 — Let My People Go The ten plagues. The Passover. The crossing. Sinai. The Law given and immediately broken with the golden calf. Season 3 — The Wilderness Forty years. The generation that cannot enter. Moses at Nebo, seeing the land he will not enter. The most poignant ending in the Old Testament.
