De Mille missed the biggest sidebar of the whole story..
The Manna.. Another whole movie could have been made of just that..

The water coming from "the Rock" and "the Manna"..
Both seen as "types" of the Christ by many christians..

A movie begging to be made.. generating numbers much like The Passion of Christ..
With a good screenplay..

Indeed, a whole movie could have been made of the manna and the water from the Rock. Thank you for your insights!
