(33,982 posts)There is evidence of Hebrew slave OWNERS living in northern Egypt within ~400 years of that time period, but the people described in Exodus? Nope.
Actual Egyptian historians are always 'dunno what the fuck you're talking about' when the subject of Hebrew slaves building the pyramids comes up, nor the plagues, Passover, etc.
Complete void in one of the most complete and detailed archaeology-based national histories you can possibly think of. Total void. No exodus, no plagues, no Hebrew slaves.
The pyramid builders were well paid, well cared for, highly skilled workers. They lived in stone houses, when %90+ of the nation's population still lived in mud huts. When they had broken bones, the bones were properly set and mended. We can get this from simple archaeological observations. Social histories include references to the builders being served beer. Beer. These were not badly treated slaves. They were highly paid, highly skilled workers.
