In this groundbreaking paintings, the authors reexamine humanity's so much enduring account of bondage, emancipation, and freedom. the good Exodus is the tale of the way one guy, empowered by means of divine epiphany, introduced the potent old nation of Egypt to its knees. For hundreds of thousands of years, this tale has reinforced the devoted of 3 significant religions, even though little historic info confirms it. So the query has to be requested: Did it ever quite happen?

Roberts, a historian and theologian, and Ward, an archaeologist, Egyptologist, and anthropologist, dig deeply into old documents to respond to the main vexing questions:

• Is there any old proof for the biblical account of the good Exodus?
• used to be Moses a true person?
• the place is the Biblical Mount Sinai?
• what's the Ark of the Covenant, and the place did it come from?
• Why did Moses write in regards to the Serpent and the Nephilim?
• Is there a Templar and Masonic connection to the occasions and personages within the story?

Did the Exodus happen less than Amenhotep II or Amenhotep III, pharaohs of an identical royal residence separated by means of generations and 80-odd years? Or have been Thutmoses III, Hatshepsut, and Amenhotep Son of Hapu on the center of the motion? The authors current opposing, but surprisingly interlaced historic bills for the Exodus, naming the ancient pharaohs and miraculous applicants for the historic Moses. whereas Roberts offers an account that reveals its moorings within the efficacy of scriptural historicity, Ward offers a brand new and entirely distinct thought for the Exodus and its solid of characters.
