Unlocking the mysteries of human genetics and developing the technologies to manipulate heredity will give, for better or worse, a new dimension to our ability to set the fate of our children and through them and their children and ultimately the fate of humanity itself.

This paper is an inquiry into Philo's ideas about human perfection: for Philo, what qualities and/or activities constitute a ‘perfect’ life, and how are we to live our lives to achieve it? Philo's model of ideal perfection, I argue, is exemplified by the life of Moses.
