Synopsis:

In this groundbreaking work, the authors re-examine humanity's most enduring account of bondage, emancipation and freedom. The Great Exodus is the story of how one man, empowered by divine epiphany, brought the mighty ancient kingdom of Egypt to itsknees. For thousands of years, this story has bolstered the faithful of three major religions, though little historical data confirms it. So the question must be asked: Did it ever really happen?

Roberts, a historian and theologian and Ward, an archaeologist, Egyptologist and anthropologist, dig deeply into historical records to answer the most vexing questions:

Is there any historical evidence for the biblical account of the Great Exodus?

Was Moses a real person?

Where is theBiblical Mount Sinai?

What is the Ark of the Covenant and where did it come from?

Why did Moses write about the Serpent and the Nephilim?

Is there a Templar and Masonic connection to the events and personages in the story?

The authors present two opposing, yet strangely interlaced historical accounts for the Exodus, naming the historical pharaohs and surprising candidates for the historical Moses. While Roberts presents an account that finds its moorings in the efficacy of scriptural historicity, Ward presents a new and completely unique theory for the Exodus and its cast of characters.
