Moses

Moses and the Exodus Time Event Pharaoh 1527 BC Moses was born Thutmose 1 (1526 – 1493 BC) 1487 BC Moses flees Egypt (Moses 40 years old) Thutmose 2 (1493 – 1479 BC) 1447 BC Exodus (Moses 80 years old) Thutmose 3 (1458 – 1425 BC) 967 BC Solomon builds temple (480 years after Exodus) The indicated years are the time they came to rule/power 1. 1 Kings 6: 1 states that Solomon began building the Temple in the fourth year of his reign, 480 years after the Exodus. 2. Most Bible scholars agree that the fourth year of Solomon's reign was 967 B. C. So the date of the Exodus can be calculated: 967 + 480 = 1447 B. C. 3. And according to history, Pharaoh Ramesses did not begin his reign until around 1290 B. C. , so he couldn't have been the Exodus pharaoh.

They are to encamp by the sea, directly opposite Baal Zephon. 3 Pharaoh will think, ‘The Israelites are wandering around the land in confusion, hemmed in by the desert. ’ 4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them. But I will gain glory for myself through Pharaoh and all his army, and the Egyptians will know that I am the LORD. ” So the Israelites did this.
