So the Hebrews were led to what seemed to be a huge mistake strategically, but then, in the entire red sea, there just happened to be a perfect ridge to walk across with the perfect seabed to walk on, millennia before anyone could have known that. Wheels aside, this in a small part corroborates the crossing, as fantastic as some may see it. And no, just because it's proven (if) doesn't remove the need for faith, it should only solidify your faith that God can act.
Quote from The JEWISH POST About the Exodus,-- We basically have one account-the Torah's. When it comes to the historical analysis of the Exodus, we have only one account, and asserting the historical validity of an event that took place 3500 years ago on the basis of a single account does not put you on very solid historical footing.
The Exodus is not about history; it is about faith. If we could "prove" it, we would not need to have faith in it..-- End of quote
@williamscarlet Of course they enjoyed wandering the desert for 40 years. But over those 40 years 400.000 shoud have died, sinde the lifespan average was no more than 45. Not a songle grave was ever found. WHY ? Exodus is bulls...
@williamscarlet The fantastic number of people involved plus the 40 years in the desert should be proof enough that the story has an underlying fictional meaning. I would think after one year lost in the desert, someone would be wise enough to pick one direction and follow it until they were out. This isn't rocket science
@williamscarlet They have no wheels. All they have is one photograph from 1970 supposedly showing a wheel at the bottom of the Red Sea. It`s pure bulls.../
On Passover last Sunday, Rabbi David Wolpe raised that provocative question before 2,200 faithful at Sinai Temple in Westwood. He minced no words. "The truth is that virtually every modern archeologist who has investigated the story of the Exodus, with very few exceptions, agrees that the way the Bible describes the Exodus is not the way it happened, if it happened at all," Wolpe told his congregants
