The Ten Commandments
Contains mild violence
violence
There are some brief scenes of violence and these include occasional sight of blood. Men are occasionally punched, one has a spear thrown into his stomach, another is whipped, a man is strangled, and another man is struck on the back with a chain. There is also a scene suggesting that a baby has been killed in its crib. This is indicated by sight of blood on a sword and on the crib, although the infant is not seen. All of these scenes occur within the context of a familiar Biblical setting.
additional issues
There are also some mild sex references during a scene in which a woman says Moses spurned her "like a strumpet in the street" and in scenes in which a voice-over negatively comments on 'lasciviousness' and 'adultery' as the Hebrews dance and drink wine whilst Moses is receiving The Ten Commandments.
