The enslavement of the Israelites is a story from The Bible, not a fact of history. Historians can find no evidence of the enslavement nor of the Exodus from Egypt. They say that many of the details in the Books of Genesis and Exodus are contrary to the historical record. And Israel Finkelstein says that over 90 per cent of scholars believe that the Exodus did not really occur.
