I'd guess that in Spielberg's Book of Exodus, Aaron, the peace-lover, gets really upset with his brother Moses's constant hectoring "Let's get out of here already!".

So dangerous does Aaron come to view Moses (in this Spielbergian translation) that Aaron kills Moses. "Enough!" cries Aaron has he drives the lance through his brother.

And then -- magically -- Pharaoh dies and the Egyptians are filled with love for the Hebrews, so much that they open their treasury to the Tribe of Israel so as to esrablish plantations in the Land of Canaan.

What a bad dream Steven Spielberg is the naker of.

That's pretty much how Aaron was portrayed in "Prince of Egypt." Wimpy, timid wuss. Also to pander to the feminists, Moses' wife Zipporah had a bigger role in the Exodus than Aaron, even though in the actual Bible she stayed home with the kids.
