IT'S most unlikely that Moses lied,simply because it's almost certain he did not exist. He and the Exodus are almost certainly myth.
Modern archaeology shows that the Jews did not invade Canaan, and kill the Canaanites, that the Jews WERE Canaanite and part of a mass migration after the collapse of the Mesopotamian empire in the early 13rth century bce.Nor is it likely that the Davidic empire existed,although it seems there my have been "a house of David"
The Book of Exodus claims SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND Jews left Egypt in the Exodus. At that time, the entire population of both Upper and Lower Egypt was around 2 million.. A reasonable person might think some literate person would have noticed at the time and written something down, but nobody did. (as far as I am aware so far)
