The reason for the rejection of the exodus tradition is said to be the lack of historical and archaeological evidence in Egypt. Those advancing these claims, however, are not specialists in the study of Egyptian history, culture, and archaeology. In this pioneering book, James Hoffmeier examines the most current Egyptological evidence and argues that it supports the biblical record concerning Israel in Egypt.Exodus, TheEgyptian literatureRelation to the Old TestamentExodus, The.Egyptian literatureRelation to the Old Testament.222/.12095Hoffmeier James Karl1951-480505MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960558403321Israel in Egypt4462851UNINA
