Moses (Egyptian, Latin: Moyses, Hebrew: מֹשֶׁה, Standard Moshe Tiberian Mōšeh; Greek: Mωϋσῆς in both the Septuagint and the New Testament; Arabic: موسىٰ, Mūsa; Ge'ez: ሙሴ, Musse) is a Biblical Hebrew religious leader, lawgiver, and prophet, to whom the authorship of the Torah is traditionally attributed. Also called Moshe Rabbeinu in Hebrew (Hebrew: מֹשֶׁה רַבֵּנוּ, Lit. "Moses our Teacher"), he is the most important prophet in Judaism, and also an important prophet of Christianity, Islam, the Bahá'í Faith, Rastafari, Chrislam and many other faiths. According to the book of Exodus, Moses was born in a time when war threatened and the large increase in the number of his people concerned the Pharaoh who was worried that they might help Egypt's enemies. His Hebrew mother, Jochebed, hid him when the Pharaoh ordered all newborn Hebrew boys to be killed, and he ended up being adopted into the Egyptian royal family. After killing an Egyptian slave-master, Moses fled across the Red Sea to Midian where he tended the flocks of Jethro, a priest of Midian on the slopes of Mt. Horeb. After the Ten Plagues were unleashed on Egypt, Moses led the Hebrew slaves out of Egypt, across the Red Sea, where they based themselves at Horeb and compassed the borders of Edom. It was at this time, that according to the Bible, Moses received the Ten Commandments. Despite living to 120, Moses died before reaching the Land of Israel.

A old draw again, I done this one arround july of the last year. the design is very referenced to Cecil B. DeMille´s movie, "The Ten Commandments".
PSCS/ cant remember the time, but was arround 6 or 7 hours/ Bamboo/music: STARING AT THE SUN- U2

I love how this is classified under "fantasy", are you an atheist?

Three critiques, and a praise.

#1 Moses was a Semitic guy - think modern day Palestinians and you'll come close - which basically means Moses is in bad need of a tan and his facial features need some work.

#2 Moses's age is not specifically listed, but the tradition is Moses was 40 when he killed an Egyptian and ran away scared into the desert. When Moses returned from the desert Moses was 80 which would have been about the time of the events surrounding Mt. Sinai. God can do wonderful and miraculous things for sure, but I'm not sure Moses would have been quite so buff.

#3 Egypt had a bad bad problem with flees. Most Egyptians shaved their heads so it is likely Moses did as well. Who's to say for sure, but after 40 years of shaving his head Moses may or may not have continued the practice when he ran off to Midian to hide.

Praise: I really like your work. Getting all of the Biblical/historical stuff accurate is tricky at best. Thanks for doing these. If you are looking for another one to try have you considered "The Commander of the Lord's Army" from Joshua 5:13-15?

The Short Version. Joshua had taken over the leadership of Israel after Moses passed away. Joshua is standing outside of Jericho when a man is standing before him. Joshua asks if the man is for the Israelites or for their enemies. The man replied, "Neither. I am the commander of the army of the Lord." If ever there was an ubber muscle bound dude it would be him.

Again. I really like your work.

In His Peace,
Richard

80-year-old abs. The next man to achieve this feat will likely be Chuck Norris. Proper use of the term "epic" is appropriate here.
