Something surely happened to enable Jacob’s progeny to shake off their shackles, but neither the sequence nor the substance are recoverable.… The deeper meaning of the conflict between Moses and Pharaoh lies not in the realm of history but theology. The root issue is not over who can deliver the most awesome miracle, but whose conception of God comes closer to the truth. Pharaoh mocks Moses.… The monotheism of Moses, without myth or magic and with little to say about the afterlife, could make no sense to him. This was to be a titanic struggle between two worldviews. —ISMAR SCHORSCH"
