The statue of Moses ends in the Middle Ages, the Italian Renaissance begins. Many people call the renaissance the revival of the new era. A new way of thinking about the world appeared between the 14th and 17th centuries. Art was very popular during the Italian Renaissance. Renaissance artists applied many humanistic and religious principles behind their work. Michelangelo Buonarroti was one of the great artists and sculptors of the Italian Renaissance. He was born in the village of Caprese on March 6, 1475.
Michelangelo statue of Moses in St. Peter's Basilica of Vincoli in Rome is one of the most familiar masterpieces in the world. The horn included in the head of the sculptor is the result of misinterpretation of the Hebrew Bible into Michelangelo's well-known Latin Bible. The Hebrew word taken from Exodus means "horn" or "radiation". An expert at the American Archaeological Institute said, "When Moses saw the eyes of the Lord, when he came back to his people by becoming able to endure the glory of the Lord, that term was used and his face reflects the glow I'm doing it. " In addition to Jewish art, Moses often "shines light from his head."
In the 16th century, Michelangelo carved Moses from Mount Sinai with two small dragonflies on his head. This word expresses the face of Moses descending from the mountain, but I know that this means lighting up. But those days the people thought that it meant "corner of the goat." So Michelangelo carved Moses on his head with two horns. This is what the Bible literally says. Since we know well, I changed the interpretation of this part based on more accurate information. We believe that we need more accurate information from the Bible and science to answer the era of global problems.
