Who was the Pharaoh when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt?
A:We do not know who the pharaoh or king of Egypt was at the time of Moses and the Exodus. The Book of Exodus says that the pharaoh and his entire army were drowned in the Red Sea, a fact that ought to easily identify the pharaoh of the Exodus, yet historians have accounted for all the Egyptian kings of the late Bronze Age, with none of them having died in these circumstances. From a historical perspective, almost all scholars are reported to believe there was no Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible.
Who was the most powerful pharaoh of all time?
Most likely Menes. The first Lord of the Two Lands. He unified North and South Egypt into one Kingdom with himself as the King(Pharaoh).
Was Ramses II the pharaoh of the Exodus?
A:Although the Bible confidently dates the Israelite Exodus from Egypt at around 1440 BCE, there are certainly good reasons for believing that Ramses II was the pharaoh of the Exodus, since it was he who built the city of pi-Ramses, mentioned in the story of the Exodus. The Amarna letters prove conclusively that the Canaanite rulers were still in full control of the land just a few decades before his reign began. Furthermore, archaeologists say that Hebrew settlements gradually began to appear in the hitherto sparsely populated Canaanite hinterland during the reign of Ramses II. However, it could not have been Ramses II who pursued the Hebrews out of Egypt, as he died peacefully as an old man and was buried in the Valley of the Kings, whereas Exodus 14:28 says that the pharaoh of the Exodus drowned in pursuit of the fleeing Israelites. For that matter, it could not have been any other pharaoh of the Late Bronze Age, since they have all been accounted for, and none died by drowning.There are just too many discrepancies between the Exodus story and what we now know of history, so that nearly all scholars now believe there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible. Pharaoh Ramses II died peacefully, unaware that the Israelites were beginning to develop settlements in the northern reaches of the Egyptian empire.
Which pharaoh was asked to release the Hebrews?
There is no indication of his name in the Bible, but scholars call him Pharoah 128, to presume it was Ramses or anyone else is best left to those who do not answer questions on here. And incidentally, no one, Pharaoh or otherwise, drove Moses out of Egypt. Moses went to Pharaoh and demanded he let Moses and his people go (they were slaves in Egypt, not people Pharaoh would be inclined to drive away since they were his cheap labor force). When Pharaoh would not let Moses and the Israelites go, 10 plagues descended upon Egypt one at a time until finally Pharaoh let Moses and his people leave. Pharaoh quickly changed his mind and chased Moses (to either capture them all or kill them all) to the Red Sea where Moses and his people safely crossed the sea and Pharaoh's men/army were all swallowed up by the sea.
What god did rameses II worshiped?
Ramses II was an Egyptian Pharaoh. The Egyptians worshiped a pantheon of gods headed by Ra and Osiris. Ramses II worshiped the whole pantheon to one extent or another, as did the population as a whole.
Who was pharaoh when Moses sent the Plagues?
A:This should be an easy question to answer, but there is no mention in the extensive Egyptian records from the late Bronze Age,of the plagues, nor of the escape of a large number of slaves or the destruction of a great army in pursuit of those slaves. Without these records, we have establish who was the pharaoh of the Exodus and therefore at the time of the plagues. We can establish the biblical date of the Exodus from Egypt, and the Book of Exodus says the pharaoh at this time was also the pharaoh at the time of the plagues.The Bible very clearly places the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt around 1440 BCE (1 Kings 6:1), but we now know from archaeology that Egypt was at that time very much in control of Canaan and remained so until the thirteenth century, which brings us to the time of Ramesses II, or Ramses II, pharaoh from around 1290 to 1224 BCE. It is a historical impossibility for any earlier pharaoh to have been the biblical pharaoh. Moreover, it was Ramses II who built the city of Ramses (Pi-Ramesses), mentioned in the story of the Exodus, thus ruling out his predecessors. For these reasons, a more modern Jewish tradition redates the early history of Israel and places the Exodus much later.Unlike the biblical pharaoh, who was drowned in the Red Sea, Ramses II died peacefully as an old man and was buried in a tomb in the Valley of Kings. His body was later moved to a royal cache. For Ramses II to have been the Pharaoh who let the people go, we would have to move the date of the Exodus forward by around two centuries and therefore move Solomon's reign to a historically impossible period. We would also have to have Ramses escape the Red Sea, in spite of Exodus 14:28. Assuming there really was an Exodus from Egypt, which few scholars now accept, Ramses II could not have been that pharaoh, regardless of popular tradition.Ramses' son, Merneptah, ruled from 1213 to 1203 BCE and died peacefully as an old man, buried in the Valley of Kings. Merneptah's successor was also buried in the Valley of Kings, thus ruling out all possible pharaohs until long after the traditional date of the Exodus and even after Israelite settlers began to appear in the Canaanite hinterland.It is not possible to identify any historical pharaoh with the biblical plagues. The history of the Hebrews must have been in some way different to that told in the Book of Exodus.
What was the relationship of the pharaoh and the other Egyptians?
Well a Pharaoh is basically a king / dictator / supreme ruler what ever he considered himself to be and in charge of Egypt. Same as a king is in charge of England. One pharaoh (ramses) considered himself the highest god among all the gods that was worshiped back in the time of ancient eqypt.
What was Cleopatra's needle use for?
Cleopatra's needle(s) are obelisks originally built by Thutmose III in 1450 BC. and they praised his achievements. Later Ramses II added his own praise for himself to them. You could say they were ancient brag books about two Pharaohs and had nothing at all to do with Cleopatra. "Cleopatra's Needles" is just an exotic name that someone made up for the obelisks.
Where were the first 9 plagues at?
If you are asking about of the first 9 plagues in the Bible - they all took place in Egypt, as well as the 10th plague which was the final plague unleashed on the Egyptians which caused the Pharaoh to release the Israelites.

How many plagues did God set on Egypt?
Moses cast 10 plagues on Egypt Locusts, angel of death, frogs, death of cattle, etc. --------- Actually Moses didn't cast any plagues at all, God did. And yeah there were 10 of them in total. The last being the worst, which struck Pharaoh the hardest. They were the Plagues of : Blood, Frogs, Swarms of flies, the death of all the livestock that were in Egypt, Boils, Hail, Locusts, the plague of Darkness, and of course the last and final one that struck Pharaoh the hardest like I said. And that was with the Angel of Death. Which is the reason why the Jewish people still today celebrate the passover. -- Because God the Father told all the Jewish people before this last one occurred -to swipe a newborn lamb's blood over the threshold of their doorway -so the Angel of Death would PASS OVER their homes. And in the morning Pharaoh could then proceed to take his people out of slavery and into the promised land. This convinced Pharaoh because of the fact that he had a relatively newborn son which the Angel of Death took along with the other infants God told him to take. 1. It was because of this that Pharaoh keep his word. Because for one the other magicians at the time couldn't do this miracle, and secondly and more importantly only GOD has the power to give life, or to take it. (see Exodus chapters 7-11).
