    Look at the marketing of 12 years a slave, Brad Pitt's face and name was used to promote the movie, yet all he had was a cameo appearance. There was some fuss in Italy as to why the real 'star' of the movie was not in any of the promotions for the movie.

          The Kebra Negast is not in the Bible though. That is not to say that the Bible is any more historically accurate .

          The Noah flood story itself is clearly a myth. Humans today don't all descend from one man and woman who lived 5000 years ago, that much is certain.

              Oh I thought he was Mesopotamian? That's where the flood story originated before the Hebrews heard it and claimed it as their own.

              Anyway I guess we can all make him be what we want him to be. Just like the tooth fairy.

                      Can't see why it would be different in music,busy touring schedule for rappers because of that market.
                      No doubt it too will change once we are properly represented or empowered in Hollywood.
                      Whose fault?

                            One more thing X, remember the Moses story according to the Hebrew Bible is that he was a Hebrew baby that an Egyptian princess found floating in a basket the river and raised him as her own. Main point being he was not of Egyptian lineage according to them.

                            My guess though is that he most likely was Egyptian but chose to defect with the Hebrews during the Exodus. The baby in the bulrushes story was probably added after the fact to make the legend of Moses more acceptable. It has revisionist history written all over it.
