QuoteThis fascinating reference fuels the passionate debate about the biblical Exodus with a provocative thesis: Not only was Moses an Egyptian but so were the Hebrew people who followed him to Canaan. Through linguistic, philologic, and religious explorations, the authors prove that the "Chosen People" were not slaves from a foreign country but high-ranking Egyptian priests and the adherents of the monotheist pharaoh Akhenaton. During a counterrevolution against monotheism, his followers were forced to move to the Egyptian province of Canaan. Secrets of the Exodus is a controversial, thought-provoking guide guaranteed to shake many beliefs both in the Jewish and Christian communities.

'Jews' as admins once more (on target Latin ;) it appears)... could be accurate... hmmm... but maybe there never was an exile from Egypt..?  Thank SoulJourney for telling me about it months ago :)  Looking through my bookmarks for books to buy and I saw this, I might order:)

Peace.
