Moses the Lawgiver (novel)

Moses the Lawgiver (1975) is a novel by Australian writer Thomas Keneally. The novel is based on the British television series "Moses the Lawgiver", for which Anthony Burgess wrote the script.

The novel follows the story of the biblical figure Moses who found the Ten Commandments and parted the Red Sea.

In her review of the book in The Australian Women's Weekly Nicola Worsley concluded: "I will admit to being beguiled by the whole publication. Thomas Keneally, with a novelist's imagination and insight, has taken familiar and unfamiliar aspects of Moses' life to bring to interesting reality this dramatic tale."
