Is the Exodus written about anywhere besides the Bible?

Answer 1

AnswerNo. The Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt is not mentioned in any record outside The Bible. The Egyptians kept detailed records of the minutiae of daily life, business dealings and commercial contracts, yet there is no hint of the biblical plagues, the supposed loss of slaves, the disappearance of an entire army or anything else that would even provide circumstantial evidence for the Exodus. The Egyptians controlled the entire land of the Canaanites during the period some say the Exodus occurred (around 1440 BCE, or even 1250 BCE), but the provincial governors never mentioned the arrival of a wave of hostile immigrants. The Canaanites, themselves, did not mention the arrival of a new nation. There is no reliable record of the Exodus.
