* ChessmasterSidekick: Interestingly, Moses serves as this. When God first manifests in the burning bush, Moses protests that he cannot speak before Pharaoh because he is "slow of speech and slow of tongue"--most scholars believe this is a reference to some kind of speech impediment. As such, it is actually Aaron, Moses's brother, who does all of the talking and bargaining with Pharaoh, while Moses serves as something of a sidekick (albeit one who is infused with God's power). As the story of the Golden Calf proves, Aaron was a ''terrible'' leader to the Israelites once they were free (largely because he was something of an ExtremeDoormat who repeatedly bent to their will), and Moses ended up having to clean up a good deal of his messes. Most adaptations of the Exodus story ignore the "slow of speech" element, though, and simply have Moses do all of the talking as well.
