Episode 169: Exodus - New Information, (26 of 26)

For more information and sources you could check out http://akinforthetruth.net.   For myself, I have not found criticisms of the central themes of this research very compelling. For example, perhaps one of the more notable argument sets I have found is that produced by the group authoring the article series “Debunking Christianity”. At their website they enlist SEVEN Criticisms of Wyatt’s Claim that he discovered and photographed a 3,500 year old “Egyptian Chariot Wheel” .   On another website, a critic claims to have attempted to reproduce the route traveled by Moller and his group, a journey in which he claims that “none of the discoveries claimed in the movie “The Exodus Revealed” were observed. Unfortunately, to date, and unlike Moller and his group, they themselves produced no photographed or video documentation of their research.   Therefore, to date, despite accusations of poor research and outright fraud by his critics, I personally have found no reason to doubt his findings, or his documentation.   The following, regardless, seems very clearly true to me:   1)    Those settlements in Goshen are clearly non-Egyptian, ancient Hebrew-like settlements; 2)    Paul states clearly in Galatians that Mt. Sinai is in Arabia; 3)    Paul’s statement is in concert with those of all respected historians, Christian or not; 4)    The land of Midian, and the uncovered city of Madian, is in Saudi Arabia, not in the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula; 5)    The crossings proposed across the Suez are not reasonable or believable, for many reasons; 6)    The route proposed to have been taken by Moses when escaping from Pharaoh the first time, and then some forty years later by he and Israel, the existence of mining operations in the south and existence of dangerous nations in the north, and the geographic facts enlisted by the movie, are quite convincing to me; 7)    The existence of a large beachhead at the end of the proposed route that the Israelis and Moses took, the existence of a land bridge with from the Peninsula to Saudi Arabia, and the belief by Solomon some four hundred years after the event that this point was in fact that of the crossing are powerful arguments; 8)    The un-natural formations of coral to form the shapes of chariot wheels and chariot axles shown on photographs are very compelling, and seem difficult to impossible to fake; 9)    Forging or faking the archaeological documentation presented in this movie seems to me difficult and unlikely. I have seen many “facts” put forth by others, supported by far more flimsy archaeological backing (e.g. Leakey’s Austalopithecus, Homo habilis, and the evolution of the whale, just to name a very few).
