The Mention of the Israelites in Egyptian Scriptures

In addition to mentioning the Israelites in their text, there are also some Egyptian documents linking the Bible to historical facts. Egyptian documents such as Tell El Amarna's letter, Menehuta 's large "stone" and elephant papiri, not only conveyed the history of Egypt, but also to the passage of the Bible. These documents confirm not only specific numbers and ceremonies such as dates, circumcision etc, but also places and events such as Exodus of the Bible story. According to James Orr, editor-in-chief of the definition of Egypt, Tell el-Amarna Letters was discovered in 1887.

As I mentioned in Part 1, in order to understand the ancient Israelis and their descendants (or their appearance), we need to figure out the ancient Egyptians at the time. As we know from the passage of the Bible, the Israelites have lived in Egypt for centuries. As I learned in Part 1, Israeli people have not only lived in Egypt for centuries but also had a passage and historical evidence of the Bible that the Israelites looked like Egyptians It was. However, in order to know what the Israelis would look like, we need to know what ancient Egyptians look like. Historically, the emergence of ancient Egyptians was always chaotic. For centuries the population of Egypt is "light". This is for centuries of Arab and European military invasion where ethnicity is mixed with primitive residents.

Centuries later, the Hebrews (aka Israel, also known as Abraham, Isaac, the descendants of Jacob) grew big and the Egyptians became uneasy. Egyptian pharaoh tried to kill all babies' babies (in a bad way of contraception), but a mother named a baby named Moses was saved by her mother. She put him in a waterproof basket and floated on the river. . Pharaoh's daughter found Moses and adopted it. In addition to those who obey the rules God has given to Moses: paint the pillars of the blood of the lamb and eat some meaningful food. This is the first Passover Festival. (A wonderful symbolic meaning! Even though it should not be, one main Jewish holy day ... Hanukkah can not even put a candle of this day.

God let Pharaoh chase the people of Israel with tanks and let them go to Pihahiroto. When the Israelites saw the Egyptian army they were afraid, the pillars of fire and cloud pillars separated the Israelites from the Egyptians. According to the order of God, Moses took his staff to the water, and in the middle of the night strong winds of the East divided the sea, the Israelites crossed the walls of water on both sides. The Egyptians pursued, but at dawn the god blocked their wheels and made them panic. When the water returned, Pharaoh and his whole army were destroyed. When the people of Israel saw the power of God they sang a song that praised the Lord by putting faith in God and Moses, crossing the sea and destroying enemies. (This song is called 'Ocean song' in Exodus 15)
