Nope, he’s trying to be Moses.

Well me too, but I only do the "hang out with a burning bush" part.

Moses didn't get to live in the nation he created.

Not to well-actually you, but there’s no archeological evidence to suggest the entire flight-from-Egypt thing actually happened.

Israelites, as a whole, were never enslaved by Egypt and never wandering through the desert. There probably were refugees absorbed that came up from Egypt, which creates the stories that then became part of the collective psyche, but it was a relative handful.
