The opening scene of the film sees the Egyptian Pharaoh Seti consulting the High Priestess (played by Varma) about aspects related to omens, portents and also the nature of stability within the Empire. A chicken is sacrificed and she pulls out the entrails and tells the Pharaoh what it means. After that, he drinks the blood of the bird and prays to the Gods for blessings. Soon after, Seti removes two swords from a box. The scabbards are made of gold and ivory and they are not as short as Roman swords but not as long as broadswords. He deliberately gives Moses and Ramses the other's sword, to symbolize that they should look after the other's sword like they would look after each other's lives.
Ramses and Moses ride into battle and take the Hittites almost totally by surprise. The latter put up a brave fight though, and Ramses almost loses his life when he falls off his smashed chariot and is almost trampled on by a Hittite chariot. However, in the nick of time, Moses fouls the chariot's wheels with a spear and saves Ramses. It isn't clear if Ramses is thankful or pissed off with Moses for saving him. It appears that for the proud Ramses, it was almost shameful to be saved by Moses.
Anyway back in the court of the Egyptian Pharaoh, the latter is beyond grateful. Later, during a debriefing about the battle, Seti tells Ramses to visit Pithom and check up on how the region's governor is managing the people (slaves, essentially), over there. Now Pithom is a stinking outpost of the Empire and Ramses feels it is below his dignity to go there. So Moses offers to go instead. Ramses also thanks Moses for saving his life, saying that if it were him, he'd do the same.
In Pithom, Moses (who doesn't like the way the Egyptian slaves are being treated and is aware that too much barbarism can lead to a mass uprising) He tells the governor there that he is living too lavishly even while the slaves and workers are in miserable conditions. During a meeting with the Hebrew slaves, one of the elders (Nun) asks him his name and is startled to hear the name 'Moses'. A message is conveyed to Moses asking him to meet Nun at night in his area so that he can convey his message. He tells Moses that he is not Egyptian. And that he was raised by the Egyptians as he was found floating in a basket on the Nile. Moses is shocked but soon, this secret is conveyed to Ramses by people who overhear the conversation that Nun has with Moses. The governor travels to Memphis and tells Ramses (who by now is the Pharaoh as Seti is dead) that Moses is of Hebrew blood. Later that night, as Ramses is enjoying a crab dinner, he asks Moses who is also in the room whether all of it is true. They both laugh it off but then Ramses finishes his food and calls in his mother as well as the lady who raised Moses. After a heated exchange, it is ascertained that Moses is indeed of Hebrew stock and is not Ramses's real brother. Moses is then exiled, though Ramses, who wants to believe that this is all wrong, secretly bundles in Moses's sword so that he can defend himself against assassins. Moses wanders far and wide and ends up parched and exhausted at an oasis by the Red Sea. There, he meets Zipporah, whose beauty and grace charms him. They get married and in time, have a son. Moses then ventures up a nearby hill called God's hill [a forbidden place] and is nearly killed in a landslide. Half buried in wet and heavy mud, the 'burning bush' incident occurs and God appears to him in the form of a boy who tells him that he will be the general who will fight against Ramses for persecuting his people. He tells Moses that he will have to lead his people out to Canaan.
Moses then trains the Hebrews living around Egypt for a sort of guerrilla warfare. This however has only limited effect [blowing up granaries etc] and so, God unleashes the Ten Plagues. Each connected to each other in sequence and each worse than the other. They are as follows:
The First Plague All of the water in Egypt - even stored water - including ponds, canals, streams, and the Nile River - turned to blood. All of the fish soon die and float at the top, causing a terrible stench.
The Second Plague Frogs multiplied in number, so almost every square inch of the land and the palace was infested with them.

The Second Plague Frogs multiplied in number, so almost every square inch of the land and the palace was infested with them.
The Third Plague Vast swarms of gnats and flies tormented people and animals and spread disease as they have been breeding on the dead fish.
The Fourth Plague Vast swarms of flies through the land, spreading disease.
The Fifth Plague The Egyptians' livestock perish. Horses, donkeys, cattle, sheep and goats all die, save the ones owned by the Hebrews.
The Sixth Plague Unsightly skin diseases afflict the Egyptians - pharaoh included.
The Seventh Plague Powerful hail storms lay devastation
