rewriting the bible part 2 - exodus

[Pat Mustard]

Drippy you dumb fuck, you have trotted out Ipuwer before and been smacked down before and will now be smacked down again.  Story of your fucking life, I imagine!

It is impossible to give a date for the composition of this document. The surviving papyrus (Papyrus Leiden 334) itself is a copy made during the New Kingdom. Ipuwer is generally supposed to have lived during the Middle Kingdom or the Second Intermediate Period, and the catastrophes he bewails to have taken place four centuries earlier during the First Intermediate Period.
    On the other hand, Miriam Lichtheim, following S. Luria, contends that

    Fringe historians often compare the content of this papyrus with Exodus, the second book of the Bible [1]. Similarities between Egyptian texts and the Bible are easily found, and it is reasonable to assume Egyptian influence on the Hebrews, given their at times close contacts. But to conclude from such parallelisms that the Ipuwer Papyrus describes Egypt at the time of the Exodus, requires a leap of faith not everybody is willing to make.

You are even less than a "fringe" historian.  You are merely a bible-thumping shithead.  Still, it is this line from Part III which dismisses your madness.

Indeed, the desert is throughout the land, the nomes are laid waste, and barbarians from abroad have come to Egypt.
Indeed, men arrive [. . .] and indeed, there are no Egyptians anywhere.

The author is envisioning an INVASION, not an exodus.

Go sulk, moron.

Fecking barbarians, they always go after the gnomes! Poor defenceless statues.
