The fact that the OT mentions such a myth, says to me the early Hebrews, which were merely a splinter sect of the Canaanites were aware of the Egyptian mythology, and creating a underdog story to compete with, and eventually defeat the old Egyptian mythology.
So I ask again looking at history without your jew colored glasses on, what prevents the egyptians who would eventually become the jewish people who live and are counted as the majority from bring their God to egypt and having it be the source of monotheism?
Quote:There is no evidence of a mass exodus by Jews from Egypt.
that's bull shite.. there where three major dynasties/kingdoms of egypt. The ld kingdom the middle kingdom and the new kingdom, after each kingdom there was a mass exodus where egyptian soceities and cities where abandoned for centuries. where nomads and bandits ruled the lands, until they where united again under the next kingdom. The second kingdom saw a mass migration of the semetic people of the northern delta. This migration is consistent with scripture. It's a long movie but it give a ton of real info sourcing digs that where happening at the time of the movie and continue on today.

Peppering a book of mythology after the fact with real places and real people is writing backwards in time.
There IS NO evidence of Jews ever being slaves under the Pharaohs as the bible claims. Just like the OT never uses the letters that spell Jesus. Josephus does not count as a first hand account.
And there was never a worldwide global flood either.
But most importantly, there is no such thing as a magic man with super natural powers.
It is just simply another book of mythology.
