I have heard several times that there is no evidence for the Exodus, not in archaeology. But I long ago was watching TV and in the documentary some Arabic archaeologists were digging up a waste pit, in it they reported finding deep down, pork bones and above only sheep bones. They probably got rid of the evidence.

And Simcha Jacobovici discovered a mountain with white minerals coating a surface indicating a rich mineral water had flowed out from it. But archaeologists from the west are not legally permitted there. The local government since then indicated they wanted to demolish the region for a building project.

I don't think it is really fair to say archaeology has had a proper scientific run in Arabia.

If exodus didn't happen, why am I here and not there?

That is not evidence of the biblical exodus.  That is evidence that a village or settlement changed their diet.

That is not evidence of the biblical exodus.  That is evidence of mineral springs, which can be found all over the world.

As far as I know( which isn't much ), there is no mention of the Israelites in ancient Egyptian records.

The Israelis where the followers of akenaten, old "ark" was an already powerful figure, the fellow who spoke for god(something that is frowned upon in the judeo Christian Islam world) created a whole new religion of monotheism and was run out of town. There was also a handy volcanic eruption to create plagues red niles  withdrawing of the sea and tsunami, wandering in the sanai.

There is evidence and lost evidence, but even if people found previously molten sand from the pillar of fire, that would not prove the Exodus happened. For Jews and Christians the readings are alike carvings in stone in Egypt.

Hard to see in what sense they frowned upon Moses, Jesus or Mohammed.

Of the biblical exodus?  What are they?

For Jews and Christians the readings are alike carvings in stone in Egypt.

What does that mean, I don't understand.

[Europan Ocean (OP)]

As I suggested, imagine even if the desert had melted in hundreds of places, that what not be evidence of the Exodus.

There were finds maybe in Jordan like a civilization suddenly changing pottery craft methods, diet from pork to sheep, and a mountain in Sinai with mineral water marks and a natural raised area from which Moses could speak.

It was hard to keep the Bible, it has been under threat, For Christians and Jews, the Pentateuch is more accurate than an Egyptian hieroglyph rock face carving.

So, I guess the answer to the OP remains no, there is no evidence of the exodus.  Agreed?

Not simply that there is no evidence but that because the event has a supernatural nature, there cannot be evidence for it. Not for the skeptic. I see evidence in archeology, only a bit. Israel exists and must have a beginning.

because the event has a supernatural nature,

So, why are you trying to discuss it on a science page?

What standard of evidence will you accept? Is there any evidence that Joe Biden is the us president ? Or is is all fictitious make believe and lies.?

[Europan Ocean (OP)]

One can't really bring evidence of the supernatural from the distant past, but there is evidence of a move of people, new foods and pottery into the land. But it has not been well promoted it may be dynamited. Dynamite referring to the fate of mountains and rocks in S.A.

I type because I am persuaded that Moses was a real person and not fictitious as anti-theists would say.

From ChatGPT:
The question of archaeological evidence for the Biblical Exodus is a topic of ongoing debate among scholars and archaeologists. The Exodus, as described in the Bible, narrates the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt and their subsequent journey to the Promised Land.

While there is a lack of direct and conclusive archaeological evidence specifically supporting the biblical account of the Exodus, it is essential to consider a few factors. First, the Exodus story is believed to have occurred around the 13th century BCE, and it is challenging to find definitive archaeological evidence from such an ancient time period. Second, the events described in the Exodus narrative, such as the crossing of the Red Sea and the wandering in the wilderness, are not easily verifiable through archaeological means.

Nevertheless, some researchers propose alternative theories and interpretations. For example, some suggest that the Exodus story might be a composite of various smaller-scale events rather than a single mass migration. Others propose that the Exodus might have occurred in a different geographical region than traditionally assumed.

It's important to note that absence of evidence does not necessarily equate to evidence of absence. Archaeological discoveries are ongoing, and new findings could potentially shed light on the Exodus or related events in the future. For now, the question of archaeological evidence for the Exodus remains a topic of scholarly discussion and investigation.

I'm not sure if trying to cite a chat bot  on a science page is more or less stupid than trying to cite the Bible.

How can you sleep at night knowing there might be a tiger in your room?
I realise there's no evidence for the tiger but you don't think that the absence of evidence equates to evidence of absence.

In the real world, if you look for evidence without finding it, and the situation is such that evidence should be obvious, then the absence of evidence IS evidence of absence.
