Please read (short, illuminating reading, written by an evangelical historian). Tgeorgescu (talk) 17:39, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
That is a perspective of some author on a website, but his knowledge is severely lacking. Increasing finds in recent years has provided evidence for periods of Israel's history once doubted. The Merneptah Stele is still evidence from a non-Israeli, non-Biblical source for the existence of Israel east of Egypt circa 1200 BC.
- Furthermore, the existence of Canaanites (including proto-Israelites) in Egypt between 1700 - 1300 BC is known, due to evidence of the Semitic Canaanite Hyksos period. Most scholars acknowledge now that a Canaanite population, or populations, exited the region following the re-establishment of native Egyptian rule. There are known massive natural disasters to have occurred in the same time frame, including the eruption of Thera which ended the Minoan civilization. 173.238.79.44 (talk) 17:49, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
- Canaanites in Egypt is a red herring. Hyksos, too. That's not what the Exodus story is about. Please do not change what the sources say. Tgeorgescu (talk) 17:50, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
