Look, Hannah. Exodus isn't the revealed word, and it isn't a historical account. It doesn't have to be one or the other. People are capable of fiction, always have been. It's almost an insult to those people when you assume they just couldn't write fiction. However, if you want the description of god to be a Volcano, that's fine, but source the description of god farther back. Hebrews were Canaanites, they didn't steal pharoah's gold and flee through the Saudi Desert. Mt. Sinai is not somewhere else, etc etc etc.
