Is there evidence for the Israelites leaving Egypt like the Bible describes in the book of Exodus? Or is it just a story? In this video, we discuss archaeology from Egypt and Canaan that might point us to the Biblical Exodus, when it could've happened, who the mysterious Pharaoh could've been.

This video is an excerpt from a class I taught called "Bridge the Gap."
