What date/year does the Bible give for the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt ... ?

Question

And which Egyptian pharaoh was in power when it occurred?

If the pharaoh was "Ramses" ("the name conventionally given in English transliteration to eleven Egyptian pharaohs of the later New Kingdom period") which ONE was pharaoh at the time?

Answer 1

As a group, Israel departed from "Rameses" in Egypt on Nisan 15, 1513 B.C.E.

When Jacob’s family moved into Egypt they were assigned to live in “the land of Rameses.” (Ge 47:11) Since elsewhere they are spoken of as residing in the land of Goshen, it appears that Rameses was either a district within Goshen or was another name for Goshen. (Ge 47:6) Later, the Israelites were enslaved and put to building cities “as storage places for Pharaoh, namely, Pithom and Raamses [the vowel pointing here differs slightly from that of “Rameses”].” (Ex 1:11) Many scholars suggest that Raamses was so named for the district of Rameses in which they assume it was located.

When the Exodus from Egypt began, Rameses is given as the starting point. Most scholars assume that the city is here meant, perhaps being the rendezvous site where the Israelites gathered from various parts of Goshen. But Rameses may here refer to a district, and it may be that the Israelites pulled away from all parts of the district, converging on Succoth as the place of rendezvous.—Ex 12:37; Nu 33:3-5.

I found this to be interesting regarding the pharaohs in the Bible. . Because of the confused state of Egyptian chronology, it is not possible to connect these pharaohs to those of secular history with certainty. These anonymous pharaohs include: The one who tried to take Abraham’s wife Sarah (Ge 12:15-20); the pharaoh who promoted Joseph’s rise to authority (Ge 41:39-46); the pharaoh (or pharaohs) of the period of oppression of the Israelites prior to Moses’ return from Midian (Ex chaps 1, 2); the pharaoh ruling during the Ten Plagues and at the time of the Exodus (Ex 5-14); the father of Bithiah, wife of Mered of the tribe of Judah (1Ch 4:18); the pharaoh who gave asylum to Hadad of Edom in David’s time (1Ki 11:18-22); the father of Solomon’s Egyptian wife (1Ki 3:1); and the pharaoh who struck down Gaza during the days of Jeremiah the prophet (Jer 47:1).

Answer 2

None as opposed to the truth that the Yahweh detail of what grew to be "God" looks to had been the titular deity of a individuals dwelling in Sainai, suggesting that any one used to be there for a few motive... I've obvious it instructed that probably there have been a small institution of Canaanite/Hebrew slaves who escaped from Egypt and obtained the Yahweh worship on their method and I've additionally obvious it instructed that the Hebrews have been a number of the Hyksos expelled from Egypt. Take your choose.

Answer 3

Not everyone agrees that the Pharaoh of Exodus was Ramses II since he is not actually named in the Bible.

............................................
The Pharaoh of the Exodus was probably Menephtah I., the fourteenth and eldest surviving son of Rameses II. He resided at Zoan, where he had the various interviews with Moses and Aaron recorded in the book of Exodus. His mummy was not among those found at Deir el-Bahari. It is still a question, however, whether Seti II. or his father Menephtah was the Pharaoh of the Exodus. Some think the balance of evidence to be in favor of the former, whose reign it is known began peacefully, but came to a sudden and disastrous end. The "Harris papyrus," found at Medinet-Abou in Upper Egypt in 1856, a state document written by Rameses III., the second king of the Twentieth Dynasty, gives at length an account of a great exodus from Egypt, followed by wide-spread confusion and anarchy. This, there is great reason to believe, was the Hebrew exodus, with which the Nineteenth Dynasty of the Pharaohs came to an end. This period of anarchy was brought to a close by Setnekht, the founder of the Twentieth Dynasty.

................................................
Was [Ramses II ] the Pharaoh of Exodus?

At least as early as Eusebius of Caesarea, Ramesses II was identified with the pharaoh of whom the Biblical figure Moses demanded his people be released from slavery.

The identification is sometimes disputed for several reasons:

Ramesses II was not drowned in the Sea, although the biblical account makes no specific claim that the pharaoh was with his army when they were "swept ... into the sea." In fact, Jewish tradition says that he was the only Egyptian first born to have survived and would later become the King of Nineveh in the Book of Jonah.

There is nothing in the archaeological or textual record of his reign to record the Plagues of Egypt or any related events, which is surprising given the large number of Egyptian texts still in existence.

The dates now ascribed to Ramesses's reign by most modern scholars do not match the dates when Moses was believed to be in Egypt.

Scholars like George Mendenhall associate the Israelite's arrival in Palestine more closely with the Hapiru mentioned in the Amarna letters and Hittite treaties of that time than with Ramesses II.

The Bible does however state that the Israelites toiled in slavery and build "for Pharaoh supply cities, Pithom and Ra'amses" in the Egyptian Delta. The latter city is probably a reference to the city of Pi-Ramesse Aa-nakhtu or the "House of Ramesses, Great-of-Victories" (modern day Qantir) which had been Seti I's summer retreat. Ramesses II greatly enlarged this city as his principal northern capital and as an important forward base for his military campaigns into the Levant and his control over Canaan. According to Kenneth Kitchen, Pi-Ramesses was largely abandoned from c.1130 BC onwards; as was often the practice, later rulers removed much of the stone from the city to build the temples of their new capital: Tanis. Therefore if the identification of the city is correct, it strengthens the case for identifying Ramesses II as the Pharaoh who reign during Moses' lifetime.

On the other hand, Ramses' own stele erected in the late 13th century BC in the city known to the Bible as Bet-Shan mentions two conquered peoples who came to "make obeisance to him" in his city of Ramses but mentions neither the building of the city nor, as some have written, the Israelites or Hapiru.

Speculation that Ramesses II was the Biblical Pharaoh named Shishak who attacked Judah and seized war bounty from Jerusalem in Year 5 of Rehoboam is unfounded because both Ramesses II and his 19th Dynasty successors (ie: Merneptah, Seti II, Siptah, Twosret) retained firm control over Canaan during their reigns. Neither Israel nor Judah could have existed as independent states at this time.

Answer 4

Bible scholars gnerally place the Exodus around 1447 B.C. in the reign of Amenhotep II.

Answer 5

About 3000 years BC.
