Is the Bible stories of Moses,fact or fiction?

Question

your opinion
Just curious to know

Answer 1

Fact.

1st, none of it has been *disproven*. If this statement were true:
"The Egyptians were among the most prolific journalists of the ancient world, and they didn't note owning some Hebrew slaves at all,"
Then there would be clear evidence contradicting the biblical account. In fact, we have very little of the writings of the ancient Egyptians. Papyrus just doesn't last a real long time, especially in the environment of a flooding Nile. All we have from those ancient times, in general, are funerary inscriptions and victory monuments. Losing a slave population and loss of an army during the event would definitely not make it into any Pharaoh's list of great deeds.
If this statement were true
"No evidence of Moses."
Then we would not have at least 4 books of the bible.

2nd, there *is* considerable archaeological evidence supporting *many* ancient events in the bible, including the arrival of the Philistines (for example) found among Egyptian carvings.Since so many of these ancient events have evidence supporting them, it seems likely that those events which have no evidence supporting them (or contradicting them) are more likely to be true than the speculations of someone 3400 years later!

Answer 2

Fiction, not only is there no Egyptian evidence of Moses but there in no evidence of Joseph or the generations of Hebrews that spent 200 to 400 years in Egypt. Also while the route out of Egypt is questionable, several sites are well known and excavations of these sites has shown no evidence of the Exodus.

Edit:
I can state that there is no evidence after extensively examining both secular and biblical archeology reports. If someone thinks that they have some sort of evidence for this, I'd like to see it.

Answer 3

The Egyptians were among the most prolific journalists of the ancient world, and they didn't note owning some Hebrew slaves at all, especially not a large number of them who escaped during a series of disasters.

OTOH, Moses certainly sounds like somebody raised in the Egyptian court; his fetishes about "clean" and "unclean" animals are quite Egyptian.

Answer 4

You'd want to hope it's all fiction.
Moses was into genocide in god's name. Killing people in god's name is wrong. In fact, if Moses were around today, he'd be tried and hopefully executed as the war criminal that he was.
If you think Moses was justified in what he did, wiping out entire cities, in god's name, then you really can't get too upset when crazy Muslims fly planes into buildings, in god's name.

Answer 5

I am a believer, every thing about the Bible is true. I believe that God gave Moses the instructions in the Old Testament, just as Jesus Christ gives us our instructions in the New Testament. I am a saved woman. Jesus is my Savior!!!

Answer 6

Fact. Archeology has found Egyptian wagon wheels encrusted with carbuncles at the bottom of the Dead Sea floor.

Answer 7

have you ever study the bible? The thoughts are poorly written, are awkward in plotting, and regularly have worse morals than the two of the series of books you suggested. i do no longer bear in mind everywhere in Harry Potter while the "gopod adult adult males" have been informed to bash interior the heads of toddlers, and to kill all adult adult males, enslave all women, do you?

Answer 8

There is actually a great deal of archaeological evidence that supports many things described in the Torah.

In comparison, nothing from the NT has ever been supported by any type of evidence, whatsoever.

Answer 9

Fiction.

No evidence of Moses.

Answer 10

Well, the Jews being in Egypt, etc...is historically documented. The part where God comes in and all that stuff is myth.

Basically, the bible is some historical truth and myths combined together.
