What you are doing, Hannah, is called cherry-picking. The biggest problem with cherry-picking the bible is that you are operating from the dubious position that it is true in the first place. Here's a map drawn up by people who are every bit as guilty of that as you:
http://www.bible-history.com/maps/route_exodus.html
which shows that your non-existent "Hebrews" never went anywhere near Saudi Arabia.
By the way...and this won't help you or the group mentioned above..."Red Sea" is a mistranslation of yam suph which more accurately means "Reed Sea."
In any event, you still have failed to show that there were any Hebrews ( slave or otherwise ) in Egypt...whereas modern archaeology has demonstrated that the people who later became Jews settled the eastern hill region of Palestine around 1200 BC.
Stop reading ancient superstition and catch up with the modern world.

Quote:In the last quarter century or so, archaeologists have seen one settled assumption after another concerning who the ancient Israelites were and where they came from proved false. Rather than a band of invaders who fought their way into the Holy Land, the Israelites are now thought to have been an 'indigenous culture that developed west of the Jordan River around 1200 B.C. Abraham, Isaac, and the other patriarchs appear to have been spliced together out of various pieces of local lore.
