History lessons are boring unless you have a fun teacher or someone like Will Smith lecturing you about it. The superstar recently decided to give his fans a dose of history while in Jordan. 

Early this year, the Hollywood icon stunned the audience at the Oscars 2022 when he slapped the host of the night, Chris Rock, who had made a joke about his wife, Jada’s bald head, which had triggered the actor to walk on stage and assault him. The insiders still remain divisive on the matter, but nevertheless, it seems the actor is trying to put things behind him and put his best foot forward after the fiasco, especially with the historical lesson he gave.

Will Smith narrates a biblical tale in classic Will Smith style 

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air actor, while wearing a turban on his head and a red Jordan t-shirt, suddenly had the idea to brief his fans about a biblical tale of Moses. He tells his followers about how Moses took the Israelites to safety and freed them from slavery. He further commented that this would have made for a great epic action movie. But before that happens, he needs to learn to swim!

Although he narrates the story well, he got one thing wrong. It was not Moses who parted the sea; it was God. The miraculous story of Moses is told in Exodus 14 and follows Moses guiding his people out of Egypt. When they came to the red sea, God divided the Red Sea to allow the Israelites a safe passage. However, the Pharaohs and the Egyptians kept pursuing them. When all of them crossed the sea, God drenched the Egyptians, who got engulfed by the water.

Will Smith is currently preparing to come back to the screens after his last outing, King Richards, was a big success. His next is Emancipation. But since the slapgate is still fresh in everyone’s mind, many think it is a little too soon for the actor to make a comeback.

Are you one of those who thinks Will Smith should wait and let the Oscars fiasco die down?
