A fierce battle about to happen in ‘Prophet Joseph’

Lady Tiye’s confidante sends a secretive message to Ankhmahor in iFilm historical series ‘Prophet Joseph’ to be screened at 23:00 GMT tonight.

“His Highness, the great priest Ankhmahor, this is to warn you that the unruly temple priests and soldiers have disrupted peace in the country of Egypt. Amenhotep, our mighty ruler, has forced us to take action against the temple of Amun. It’s better if you stop the unruly behavior and the chaos you are causing and apologize to Amenhotep in order to diffuse tension before he takes action,” the message reads.

Now, with the message being received loud and clear, the priests get stirred up in the chaos swirling all around themselves trying to find a way out of this mess.  

“We must either back down and apologize to Amenhotep to prevent him from taking action, or we must perform a calculated strike to stop the enemy from attacking,” says Ankhmahor.

“I prefer to attack, but not the way Aliyamoon suggested. Our enemy is just one person, Amenhotep, so we will attack only one person. To do this, we need the help of someone who is close to Amenhotep,” adds Ankhmahor.  

Who do you think that close person to Amenhotep is?

Don't miss the 14th episode of the 45-episode ‘Prophet Joseph’ on iFilm TV tonight to find out. The series, made in 2008, will also be repeated the next day at 05:00, 011:00 and 17:00 (all GMT times).

The series, written and directed by late Iranian director Farajollah Salahshour, is the Iranian version of the very beloved story of Prophet Joseph, the son of Prophet Jacob who guided the Israelites to pray to the One and Only God.

“God annunciates to him about the next prophet, who will be from his own generation. One night, his son, Joseph, dreams about the sun, the moon and eleven stars which kneel in front of him. He tells Jacob, who advises him not to tell his brothers about the dream,” comes as a synopsis of the series by iFilm English website.

Prophet Joseph is dear to Jews, Christians and Muslims alike. For centuries, the story of his life has been told over and over in many different ways and in many different languages.

Notable on the cast list are Mostafa Zamani, Jafar Dehqan, Mahmoud Pakniyyat, Jahanbakhsh Soltani, Elham Hamidi, and Rahim Norouzi.
