Around 1400 BC, as the Israelites fled to Egypt for food during a famine, the Minoan culture collapsed on Crete, allowing Mycenaean Greeks to occupy the Aegean islands

During the monotheistic reign of Akhenaten ~1350 BC, there was considerable unrest in Canaan, as people with Hebrew like names seem to have been allowed to take over cities, perhaps nominally in the name of the pharaoh.

vaguely around this time, Cadmus (Qadim, "east") son of Agenor (Canaan) cleverly colonized central Greece from Canaan by dividing and conquering the foolish Spartoi.

in the 13th century BC, as the Egyptians were reacting negatively to Canaanite influences in their country, the Greeks were reacting negatively to Canaanite influences in theirs, fighting generations of wars against the Canaanite colony of Cadmea / Thebes (7 against Thebes, War of the Epigonoi).

The late bronze age collapse around 1200 BC, Which left the eastern Mediterranean in chaos, coincides with both the Trojan War and plagues of Moses

The Al-Naslah Rock near the oasis city of Timaa is also near another rock in the area on which was found the signature of Pharaoh Ramses III from the early 12th century BC, testifying to an Egyptian foray rather far into NW Arabia... as if in search of the Exodus survivors (?)

1400s BC Greek advance against Crete would coincide with the advance of Pharaoh Tutmoses against the Hyksos of Canaan, who may have been trading partners and or allies of the Minoans?
The Hyksos that Manetho mentioned in Josephus were the Israelites.

Part of the "mixed multitude" perhaps, but where in the Bible do the Israelites claim to have conquered Egypt? Joseph can be linked with the Monotheistic Pharaoh Akhenaten

"You shall be over my house, and according to your command all my people shall do homage; only in the throne I will be greater than you.” Pharaoh said to Joseph, “See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.” Then Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph’s hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen and put the gold necklace around his neck. He had him ride in his second chariot; and they proclaimed before him, “Bow the knee!” And he set him over all the land of Egypt. Moreover, Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Though I am Pharaoh, yet without your permission no one shall raise his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt (Gen. 41:40–44).”

Manetho says, "This whole nation was styled Hycsos—that is, shepherd-kings: for the first syllable, Hyc, according to the sacred dialect, denotes a king, as is Sos a shepherd, but this according to the ordinary dialect; and of these is compounded Hycsos."

They reigned in Egypt from 1805–1590 BC.

This is far too much history for my tiny brain to handle, however, from what I do know, it does appear the exodus did not happen according to mainline historians, however, when given the dates within (I think) Jewish Oral Tradition it shows there is actually evidence for the exodus for this earlier date. Example include certain styles of homes that were present at different times in Egypte representing different times the Hebrews resided in there.

Blessings.

I like your signature; I use that verse to witness to people who think the resurrection of Jesus was just a hoax.
