Yes, there was a Judiac tradition aparently about the "Horned Moses." To the
that there is a statue of the Horned Moses in the Vatican. I have a picture of it
on my wall here. The two small horns are rounded at the point and issue from the
left sand right sides of the frontal forehead, they look to be about 2 inches in length
approx. I have recall of reading that the kabbalists have the positioon that these
are indication of supernatural wisdom granted to Moses by his Diety.
Sigh.

That is based on mistranslation, possibly on purpose (as it has been used to connect Judaism to Satan). The phrase translates LITERALLY as "horns of light", but clearly means RAYS of light.
