The Ten Commandments1956

Moses:
At such a time, has any man ever gone to see him [God] face to face?

Sephora:
No man has ever set foot on the forbidden slopes of Sinai. Why do you want to see him, Moses?

Moses:
To know that he is. And if he is, to know why he has not heard the cries of slaves in bondage.

Sephora:
Moses, it would be death to look upon his face.

Moses:
How many of my people have died because he has turned away his face?

Sephora:
Can a man judge God? No, Moses. We cannot see his whole purpose. Even Ishmael did not know that God drove him into the desert to be the father of a nation. Is it not enough to know that he had saved you from the Pharaoh's anger?

Moses:
How do you know that?

Sephora:
You walk like a prince. And you fight like a warrior. There is word in the caravans of a great one who was driven out of Egypt.

Moses:
This is not the scepter of a prince, but the staff of a wanderer.

Sephora:
Then rest from wandering. My father has many flocks, but no son to tend them. There would be peace of spirit for you, Moses, in our tents beneath the holy mountain.

Moses:
You have strong faith in the God, Sephora. But, for me, there is no peace of spirit until I hear the word of God, from God himself.
