Yes, it did. This is based on the Torah (Exodus ch.12) and the unbroken 3300-year tradition of the entire Jewish nation, which is accepted by several billion Gentiles as well. Immediately after the Israelite exodus, Egypt was in turmoil for decades, as we may understand from the Ipuwer papyri (Professor John van Seters, Journal of Egyptian Archaeology no. 50).

It was part of the Exodus from Egypt and was commanded by God. See Exodus ch.12.
From a historical perspective, the single most important event in Jewish history was the Babylonian Exile, but this, and the return from Exile, are not really an 'Exodus'.The story of the Exodus from Egypt was important in Jewish biblical tradition, but not in history. Nearly all scholars say there was no Exodus from Egypt as described in The Bible, so the Exodus could not be important in a normal historical sense.

Some scholars have dated the start of the Exodus out of Egypt to Passover, Abib 1446 BC. The plagues would have occurred shortly before and up to this month.

It is unlikely, since Passover is a holiday that commemorates the Exodus from Egypt. Prior to the Exodus, no Spring holiday would have resembled Passover.
A:If the Exodus from Egypt really happened as described in the Bible, then it proved to the Hebrew people that God would fulfil his covenant with them. However, over 90 per cent of scholars are reported to believe that the biblical Exodus never really happened. There may have been no Exodus from Egypt, but the story proves that in the first millennium BCE, the Israelites wanted to understand why they were in the land of the Canaanites, just as the Genesis creation stories show they wanted to understand why we are here.
