Rebecca and Eliezer at the Well

In the Bible's book of Genesis, Abraham sends his servant Eliezer to find a wife for his son Isaac. Eliezer travels to Mesopotamia and stops at a well where young women come to draw water. He prays to God to reveal Isaac's bride, asking for a sign that she will offer him water and then water his camels. Rebecca appears and offers Eliezer water, and he recognizes her kindness as a sign from God. He gives her a ring and two bracelets as a token of gratitude and betrothal to Isaac.

"When she had given Eliezer a drink, she said, “I will also draw water for your camels until they have finished drinking.” So she quickly emptied her jar into the trough, and ran again to the well and drew water for all his camels." ~ Genesis 24:17-21, Amplified Bible

The Prince of Egypt: Gershom and Eliezer

For the 24th Anniversary of The Prince of Egypt, this glorious masterpiece of a film, I have decided to make an entire storybook of Gershom and Eliezer before they travelled to Egypt and met their Uncle Rameses for the first time. So, I hope you guys can read the text cause that would be so embarrassing if it wasn’t clear enough. Well, Happy Prince of Egypt day! Yes, I am calling this day THAT NAME okay! XD

Given the timeline change (Moses being in Midian for about 10 years as opposed to the 40 years he was there in the text), I am one of those people who does like to believe that Moses and Tzipporah do still have their two sons in the “universe” of Prince of Egypt. Just, instead of already being born by the time they go to Egypt so Moses can confront Pharaoh and free his people, they’d be born sometime after the events of the main part of the movie (as far as I’m concerned, the story of the movie proper ends right after Tzipporah has her line about how Moses’s people are free, and the shot of him with the Commandments is a sort of “epilogue”). 

Possibly very shortly after the events of the movie in the case of their first son, Gershom, since, as this one fanfiction (In the Name of Family) I’d discovered not too long ago made me realize, it would have actually been quite plausible that Tzipporah was pregnant when they came to Egypt, just so early into it even by the time the exodus actually happened that nobody would have been aware of it, considering apparently the plagues only take place over a matter of weeks. 

But, the main thing I was thinking about was the fact that, while he’d mostly be happy and relieved to have two healthy sons....I can also imagine there being times when Moses would look at his sons and fee a little sad, because seeing his sons, two brothers with quite possibly the same age difference as Moses and Rameses....would no doubt at least occasionally bring back memories of when Moses grew up with Rameses as his brother, and even the happiest of those memories would now be at least bittersweet because of how things ultimately ended up between the two of them.
