What pharaoh was mentioned in the Bible?

Answer 1

AnswerRameses II, who ruled Egypt from 1279 to 1212 BCE, was once thought to be the pharaoh mentioned in Genesis. Certainly, it could not have been an earlier pharaoh, as Exodus 12:37 says the Israelites journeyed from Rameses, a city named for Rameses II, to Succoth.

Answer 2

Let's see:

1) In the time of Abraham (Genesis ch.12)

2) In the time of Joseph (Genesis ch.41)

3) When the Israelites were first enslaved (Exodus ch.1)

4) The Pharaoh in Exodus 3:10

5) In the time of King Solomon (1 Kings ch.3)

6) In the time of King Yoshiah (2 Kings ch.23)

7) In the time of Zidkiah (Jeremiah ch.44)

See also 2 Kings ch.18, Isaiah ch.19, Ezekiel ch.29, 1 Chronicles ch.4, and many other passages, which may or may not be referring to a Pharaoh listed above. Another factor which needs clarifying is, for example, whether the Pharaoh in Genesis 41 is the same as the one in Genesis 50 (since 17 years had elapsed). And whether the Pharaoh in Genesis 39 is the same as the one in Genesis 41 (since 13 years had elapsed). And whether the Pharaoh in Exodus 1 is the same as the one who sought to kill Moses in Exodus 2 (since Moses had grown up in the interim).

Answer 3

The pharaoh in Exodus was most likely Amenhotep II.

Answer 4

were there more than one Pharoah in The Bible
