Rowling's renowned series. Through a comparative analysis, it delves into the shared Hero archetype manifested in both Potter and Moses’s narratives , unraveling their parallel journeys of destiny, adversity, and redemption. Drawing from mythological and religious symbolism, this study examines how Potter embodies characteristics of Moses (peace be upon him), such as his call to adventure, the guidance of mentors, and the confrontation of dark forces. By examining the narrative structure, character development, and thematic elements, this research clarifies the profound resonance between the two figures across religious, cultural and historical contexts. Ultimately, it argues that Harry Potter serves as a contemporary embodiment of the timeless Hero archetype, echoing the enduring significance of mythological motifs in shaping cultural narratives and identitiesenKeywords: Harry PotterMosesArchetypal CriticismHero archetypemodern-day Moses.Thesis
