To start, I realize anything created by a non-religious company is going be tainted in some way and not accurate.
So this series is amazingly beautiful. The acting is great. It's a great series to watch as a Christian. However you will begin to see some issues.
For starters because its a complication of Islam, Christianity and Judism, some things aren't accurate or may favor one religion more then another. Or somethings just feel out of place.
For example the Islamic scholars often mention god or Allah. Well Allah is not god, and yet their switch between the two like they are on in the same. Another issue some of the supposed Christian scholars say things like "Mother God". I've never heard a Christian call God a mother. Feels like a new age view.
There is also a emphasis on social justice. You'd think Netflix is hinting that perhaps Moses would support modern day causes. Granted they never say that of course. But the words social justice today often refers to modern views from the more liberal of people.
Moses was no doing social justice, he was going what God commanded. And thus if was alive today he would not support many modern things as God does not change.
There are also some quotes from the bible that are said wrong. For example God says "I am what I am", but in this He says "I am all that I am". While not a big deal, its inaccurate.
If your going into this, just be prepared to have an open mind as its focusing on things from three religions scholars.
