THE EXODUS ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL

If you have the History International Channel here is a programing alert.

Tonight they will air the program, The Exodus Decoded.

I have not seen the program but I am expecting they will question the validity of the biblical account. If this is true then the value of the program will be that it allows us to hear the arguments so we can study the issue and formulate a response.

Here is how the History International Channel web-site describes the program

The story of the Exodus invokes an epic tale--Pharaohs and Israelites, plagues and miracles, splitting of the sea and drowning of an army, and Moses. It's at the heart of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. After much research--working with archaeologists, Egyptologists, geologists, and theologians--filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici concluded that the Exodus took place hundreds of years earlier than thought. With a new timetable, Jacobovici reexamined artifacts and discovered that the traditional consensus on the date was reached without reference to Judaic texts that record the oral traditions. When Jacobovici consulted these texts, they revealed names of people and places unknown to researchers until recently when extensive excavations in the Nile Delta took place. Teaming up with special effects designers, he created a unique digital experience of the Exodus. Blending archaeological findings with eye-catching effects, Jacobovici creates a virtual museum to showcase his discoveries.

Tune In:Monday, March 31 @ 8pm ET/PT


I would watch with a pen and paper so that you can take good notes and then research the claims for yourself. If anyone watches the program please post your thoughts here.

Have a great day
