Fine. You are characterizing this but offering no rebuttal. Sure I have
a
viewpoint, but doesn't everybody. Does every medical student wanting to
become a doctor have a motive? Of course. You'd say they were all just
interested in the money or using their position to see ****d patients
legitimately. Anyone can mischaracterize, but it doesn't mean it's true.
In the meantime, it is clear what your "agenda" is. There's a fight
going
on in the ring and you're describing noise levels of the crowd. Do FOCUS.
The Exodus DID occur. It historically happened in the 1st of Akhenaten,
killing Amenhotep III in the Red Sea. After seeing the miraculous ten
plagues, especially impressed with the three days of total darkness,
Akhenaten was convinced to become a monotheist. He did one more than that
and became such a believer he became a high-priest to is new god. His god
communicated with him. His own words are that his god told him to build
an
altar in the middle of Egypt, nobody else. So if his god is talking to
him, and it's the same god as the Jewish god, seems to me he'd inspire
similar adoration in the psalms, right? Well that's one thing this is
most
comparable with Akhenaten and the Jews, similarlities in their
psalm/hymms.
There were differences, sure, but the basics are there.
When Akhenaten was obliterated historically from Egyptian history, likely
mention of the Jews leaving Egypt and the ten plagues was destroyed for
political reasons as well. So there is a clear "disturbance" here in the
"business as usual landscape" at this point and we can now confirm and
poinpoint the dating. It's wonderful. It's wonderful if you want to
move
forward rather than stay in a dark closet with the door closed and not
keep
up, that is.
