Reception Peter T. Chattaway from Patheos gave Moses a good review and praised Kingsley's performance: "For sheer human realism, Kingsley's is probably the best interpretation of Moses any film has offered to date."

Moses was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award in the category of "Outstanding Miniseries". In a 2006 interview, Kingsley described the role of Moses as one of his most challenging and enjoyable screen roles to date. He also recalled a moment when he and Lee had kept the extras and crew entertained during a break between shooting with a rendition of "Moses Supposes" from the musical Singin' in the Rain.Eoghan Rice, "Ben Kingsley: 'I don't think people who had seen Gandhi were ready for Don Logan," Sunday Tribune, 26 February 2006.
