The Bahr Yussef (Arabic: بحر يوسف; "the waterway of Joseph") is a canal which connects the Nile River with Fayyum in Egypt

There are lots of places in Egypt that have drawings of Jews and 400 years in nothing to 6099 years.

[ernee]

You forgot the Ipuwer [thanks crisnevin for correcting my spelling] papyrus, which mentions plagues that sound like Exodus hitting Egypt from an Egyptian's perspective.

[briandavenport]

Think of Egypt as the ancient version of North Korea. Everything was always written to reflect positive on pharaoh. He could do no wrong because he was a god and he never lost a military campaign. Egyptians were the masters of propaganda.

[alincioaba]

Well according to Doug Petrovic there is plenty of evidence. Just look for his material on YouTube. The guy found Jewish writings in different Egyptian inscriptions and when he asked Egyptologists what those were they said: that's just Jewish. The archaeological community knows about this but it doesn't fit the narrative so they just ignore it.

[peterwalker]

The Egyptians was not going to Record their misfortune and lost of Empire and Army! Especially the proud and Boastful Ahmenhotep2! He died about 16 years after the Exodus!

[joshpetersen]

Also the Egyptians weren't likely to record defeats and humiliations, except to possibly downplay them as insignificant or as evidence of the Pharoahs magnanimity.
So I think they would cover up the events of Exodus as much as they could and if and when they couldn't try to downplay how devastating the events were or use them to hype up the Pharoah.

[krisofamerica]

How could that woman possibly say that with the amount of fraud going on in egyptian archaeology at this time?

[eldi]

Also, there is evidence of wheels of chariots found in the crossing waters: when the Israelites left Egypt they were chased by Egyptians who were overcome with waters that returned to their place after Moses had parted the waters for the Israelites to cross on dry land

[Night_Crew_Artist]

We spend so much time trying to show that the Bible stories aren't stories but are actually factual. But the real problem for unbelievers is a hardened heart.

[kayeruss]

From what I've read about Egypt, they loved to "cancel" anything that didn't fit the current pharoah's preferences.

Also the Traditional Site of Jericho matches the timeline of the Semite people leaving Avaris. Additionally the Traditional Jericho site destruction matches the Biblical account and also the time of year. The Archeologist see the walls fell outward, there was rapid destruction and fires and the evidence shows the spring time as when it happend.

[terrifictomm]

Why aren't the contemporaneous records kept by the Israelites considered authoritative?
They still celebrate rituals initiated during the real time of the Exodus.

If the story of the Exodus weren't part of a library of historical records called "the Bible" they would be considered authoritative. Just as they were for thousands of years before this socalled "common era."

[JAllen]

Simple. Because these Egyptians never recorded their losses, only their wins.

[Russ_Looney]

It is there! It was not Ramsey. It was before him. There is a great episode on YouTube here where archeologist Joel P. Kramer uncovered the inscription in Egypt on a pillar in a sand dune on an obscure site. I hope you look it up as I found it really informative and insightful. It is there! I want to say it was a Thutmose, or an Amonhotep, but it was not Ramsey. Hey, after you watch it, let me know what you thought about it please? GOD bless you!

[VEttariPEPC]

I believe that from that alternate time period there are Coffin Texts which say, "This one died on the night that the unnamed God judged Egypt."

[lfenney]

Exodus occured during the volcano of Santorini around 1500 bc. It caused the 10 plagues and land shift to part the sea.

[meina]

The Hyksos considered themselves part of dynastic egypt which is why they appropriated many forms of art, customs, and even religion from the ancient egyptians. It does not “jive” well with the narrative of an enslaved people. They were also considered to have actually conquered lower Egypt until Ahmose 1 kicked them out.

[xavariusquest]

This is the first time he's said something that is both accurate and verifiable. That clear evidence is ignored is largely political. The myths surrounding the history of ancient Egypt are too apparent to be dismissed BUT TOO CHARGED WITH POLITICS, RELIGION, AND THE ABYSMAL HISTORY OF POOR SCHOLARSHIP TO BE ACCEPTED.
