The Bible says that the Hebrews spent 430 years in Egypt. Scholars long ago noted that there is little or no Egyptian influence in the Hebrew language. The closest language to the early Hebrew language was the Canaanite language.

Are there any traces of Hebrew words in the Egyptian language during the time of Exodus?

The Hebrew language is believed by some to have evolved from a Canaanite dialect in Jerusalem around the beginning of the ninth century BCE, although there is an intriguing possibility of its emergence further north and slightly earlier than 900 BCE. Either way, there is no possibility of the Egyptian language incorporating any Hebrew words around 1440 BCE, when the Exodus is supposed to have taken place.

If the Israelites were slaves of Egypt for 400 years are there some Egyptian words in the Hebrew language?

No, there is no linguistic evidence that the Israelites ever spent any time in Egypt. In fact the linguistic evidence disproves the Exodus story. The Hebrew language arose as a dialect of Canaanite around 900 BCE. The people who first spoke Hebrew were therefore of Canaanite origin, forming their own communities much later than the Bible admits. On the archaeological evidence, the Israelites began to adopt a separate identity no earlier than approximately 1250 BCE.


Are there any words in Hebrew and Chinese that have the same etymology?

Not in Hebrew unless you count late borrowings from Chinese into Hebrew, such as: צ׳אי מיין (chow mein) There were Jews known to live in China up until the 19th Century, but again, any similar words would be considered late borrowings.

What does the Hebrew name Rykiel mean?

This is not a known Hebrew name, but it could be interpreted as Hebrew. "Ryk-" in Hebrew means "Emptiness". "El" means God. So logically, it would be something along the lines of "Devoid of God", or on a more positive interpretation, "God has cleansed/emptied." I haven't found any other leads anywhere else, hence why I looked it up.
