What role impact did the Hebrew tribes play in ancient Egypt?
Scholars of Ancient History have concluded that there never was a large number of Hebrews that were enslaved in Egypt, so there is no impact of Hebrews in Egyptian history whatsoever. Egyptians record has showed that Egypt have expelled many foreigners from their land, but none of the records showed that the Hebrews were one of them expelled. The question is essentially impossible to answer in the sense that there is little evidence either way. While there is plenty of evidence of the existence and history of the Israelites, there is little evidence in Egypt during this period. What is also true is that there is a normal policy of ancient kings never to record their defeats or indeed anything negative about their reign. Thus nothing can be gained by taking an 'argument from silence', except that if a definite conclusion is reached, it can only be that 'there is little evidence'. To make any further conclusions this is unsupported by facts and is only conjecture based on a particular philosophical bias.
