Moses is one of the most revered figures in Judaism and Christianity, and the new series Testament: The Story of Moses brings his story to life again.

Besides the fact that it is a three-episode series rather than a film, it is also a docudrama, with commentary intermingled throughout the trip of Moses. So, what else must you know about this? Here’s all we learn about the Testament: The Story of Moses.
Testament: The Story of Moses | Official Trailer

The docu-drama is a dramatized description of the prophet Moses’ rise to fame as a believer in God. The drama will reveal the mystery of Moses’ inner life, including his difficulties with his unique identity, self-doubt, and humanity.
It seeks to look at Moses’ life over various timelines, from being a stranger and outcast to being the honored prophet & liberator of the Hebrews.
The riveting docudrama also includes expert interviews through talking heads to provide context for the historical events interlaced with the sacred scriptures of the Bible, Qur’an, & Torah.
