According to The Bible, 600,000 fighting men left Egypt in the Exodus. Scholars say that, including priests, women, the elderly and children, this would have been equivalent to around two and a half million people. So, if this represented only 20 per cent of the total Israelites, then there must have been at least 12.5 million Israelites at the time - an impossible figure, since archaeologists say that the total population of Egypt was only around three and a half million people. In fact, more than 90 per cent of scholars are reported as saying that the Exodus did not really occur as described in the Bible. So, ththe statement that 80 per cent of Jews were left in Egypt is not true.
