Unravel the facts behind biblical history and ancient Egypt. This nonfiction work examines how the Pentateuch’s account of Moses and the Israelites aligns with known Egyptian history. It argues that careful interpretation, supported by archaeological findings, makes room for a faithful reading of the scripture.
Two short sections frame the discussion: it addresses common rationalist objections, explains why details in Exodus matter, and shows how Egyptology can illuminate the biblical record without compromising faith.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book seeks to answer lingering questions surrounding the Mosaic origins of the Pentateuch. The author establishes the authenticity of the Pentateuch by first noting the testimonies of Christ and his apostles, and then moves on to draw upon the Jewish literature of the time for support. Through an examination of the contents of the text, the author then argues that the Pentateuch was likely written during the time of Moses, because it reflects the preoccupations, emotions and needs of the Israelites during that period. The author concludes that the religious and temporal mission of Moses was to lead the Israelites out of Egypt and into the land of Canaan, and that the Pentateuch was written as a tool to convince the Israelites that this was their religious duty.
