The Egyptians prohibited Israelites to sacrifice to their God, because they saw them as slaves and as is they were unworthy to worship their gods. this mind you happened well after Joseph the first Egyptian/Israelite came to power. He was the one to bring over the Israelite's. many years later a new king came into power who didn't know of Joseph and his people and enslaves all the Israelites

YES. Ancient Egyptians offered numerous animal sacrifices to appease the gods of the Egyptian Pantheon.

This was discontinued in later dynasties.


What prompted the Israelites to go through the Red Sea?

The Israelites were prompted to go through the Red Sea because their leader, Moses, had a directive from God that they should escape through the sea. God wanted them to re-start their lives in a new land. The Egyptians were following them. Had they stayed on the west shore of the Red Sea, the Egyptians would have killed them. Moses held up his staff, and God parted the waters of the Red Sea. When the Egyptians followed them, God let the walls of waters go and the Egyptian soldiers drowned.


What was the 1st food ever made by hand?

Although there is no real way of telling, one good guess is the Ancient Egyptians. They farmed and they stored food in warehouse type environments for later use. The link below does mention that they used peasants and at some time I would think the Israelites would have been involved in the mass production of food for the Egyptians.


How many chariots came after Moses and the Israelites?

There would have been no reason for the Egyptians to pursue the Israelites recklessly, as described in the Bible. The entire Levant region was under Egyptian rule, with Egyptian army garrisons scattered throughout Palestine. And two and a half million Israelites would not have been hard to find, whenever the Egyptians wanted to find them. It seems unlikely that any chariots were really in pursuit of the Israelites. In any case, Israel Finkelstein says that over ninety percent of scholars do not believe there was an Exodus from Egypt. That being the case, there was no pursuit of the Israelites and no chariots. The tradition of the Exodus from Egypt developed many centuries after the time attributed to it. 600 chariots were sent to follow the Israelites. Moses recorded this and had been an eyewitness to the events. The Egyptians were losing a large slave force in a period of much building construction, hence the need to pursue their departing slave workforce in such a significant way. There is evidence that the Egyptians were weakened militarily after this time for a period which supports the loss they suffered.
