The Exodus can only be correctly dated by solving several biblical ciphers, as explained here, and also here.

Knowing when the Exodus was, and who was the Pharaoh, or what was going on in Egypt at the time, is a topic of great interest to Jews and Christians. However, due to an artificial shortening of Biblical Chronology, chiefly in the period of the Judges, the date of the Exodus according to the Scripture has gone off course almost 200 years, which means that everyone is looking in the wrong place for the Exodus in archeology and history. The true date has been revised downwards from the 17th century BC to the 15th century BC due to a misreading of the 1Kings 6:1 cipher and a later revision of Biblical Chronology by Chronologists committed to the accuracy of Assyrian Chronology, but not committed to the accuracy of Scripture. Based on McFall and Thiele’s chronology most are convinced the Exodus was in 1446 BC. But this date is 186 years too low. Building on the 983/982 BC date for the start of the Divided Kingdom, established independently of Assyrian archaeological interpretations, we can work our way back through the Judges to an Exodus date of 1632 BC. This paper shows that the period from the Exodus to the 4th year of Solomon was 613 years, and not the 480 assumed by careless readers of 1Kings 6:1. It shows that the Judges cannot be squished into the lesser amount of time. And except for three unknowns of 7, 14, and 19 years each (x,y,z), amounting to only 40 years, that even if x+y+z = 0, that the true 613 years cannot be in any way reduced to 480.

<< ...not the 480 assumed by careless readers of 1Kings 6:1 >>

In the four hundred and eightieth year after the people of Israel came out
of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the
month of Ziv, which is the second month, he began to build the house of the
LORD
. (RSV)

Amazing!

It's always a surprise to me when I'm told that every Bible translator whoever made Bible translation his life's work has been wrong. (except, of course, the person making the current astounding statement) And, not only are ever one of them wrong, but, it turns out that every last one of them made the exact same identical error due to their carelessness!

Imagine that! Carelessness by every single Bible translator who ever lived!

<< ...the true 613 years cannot be in any way reduced to 480. >>

Astounding news indeed!

Which reminds me; I need to put the trash out.

There are obvious striking parallels with the Monotheistic faith of Akhenaten of the Amarna period in the 14th century BC under the XVIII dynasty. Some have even identified Joseph with the powerful vizier Yuya who married into the dynasty such that the monotheistic Pharaoh Akhenaten was his descendant.

The name "Moses" was very popular under the ensuing xenophobic XIX dynasty in the 13th century BC:
  • Ra-moses ("born of Ra", Ramses)
  • Amun-moses ("born of Amun", Amenmesse)
Pharaoh Ramses II is strongly suggested by the Biblical account:
  • traditional Jewish memory has always viewed Rameses II as the Pharaoh of oppression
  • treasure cities of On, Pithom ("house of Atum", Per-Atum) and Ramses
  • he reigned 80 years, consistent with Moses growing to age 40, then hiding in exile for 40 more years before the powerful, oppressing Pharaoh passed away
  • his successor, Merneptah, acknowledges sending out a force against "Israel" in his 5th year (Merneptah stele) circa 1208 BC, and his reign ended in chaos
It is a true fact that the Koran claims Pharaoh had a chief advisor named something like "Haman" or "Aman", which could possibly be a reference to Amenmesse who succeeded Merneptah, briefly in southern Egypt, during the period of political chaos after Merneptah's reign. The Koran also claims that the plagues on Egypt lasted several years, consistent with Moses returning to Egypt circa 1212 BC, after Pharaoh Ramses II was no longer on the throne... the plagues begin and persist for several years... until the [children of] Israel escaped and were pursued in 1208 BC...

Biblical archeology confirms early Israelite square houses & culture entering into Canaan beginning around 1200 BC...

It all appears to line up -- traditional Jewish memory, Biblical archeology, Egyptian archeology, even the "Midianite memories" apparently preserved in northwestern Arabia and the Koran
