Continuity mistake: When Moses returns from Ethiopia amidst great fanfare, he's wearing two golden wings crisscrossed across his chest. At first they are crisscrossed with his left wing over his right, but when Moses kneels in front of Sethi, the wings are crisscrossed the opposite way, with his right wing over the left. These golden wings continue to switch positions repeatedly in the following shots. (00:21:20)
Continuity mistake: When Moses confronts his Egyptian mother Bithiah with the Hebrew piece of cloth, she is beading on an Egyptian loom. During this scene, the string that she is beading (the farthest to our right) first matches the height of the other strings. One shot later, there is suddenly more beads, making the string higher than the others. (00:57:40)

Continuity mistake: When the movie ends, Sephora rests against Moses' shoulder and places her left arm on his body. From the angle shot from behind, she is away from him and her left arm is signaling the horizon. Back to the front shot, and she is in the previous position.
Continuity mistake: At the end when Moses reaches out to the tablets, in the first shot he has nothing in his hand, second shot he has something black which at first looks like sunglasses, and in the third shot his hand is empty again.
Continuity mistake: Before Moses parts the sea waters, he cries, "Behold his mighty hand!" and extends both arms, his staff covered by his cloak. From the angle shot from behind, the staff is now over the cloak.
