Moses is believed to have lived some time in a 200 year period between about 1400 BC and 1200 BC. About 3200 years ago. There is only one dig on land that evidences the Jews were in Egypt at all during the New Pharaonic Kingdom, which lasted from the 16th Century BC to the 11th Century BC.

No other evidence of the exodus has been found.

My point is that we live in a *very* destructive world. The dry sands of Egypt are very good at preserving archeological artifacts, but even there it is very hard to find more than little bits here and there.

Under sea water? Likely almost nothing more than a thousand years old. The Red Sea has plenty of oxygen, enough to support 1200 different species of fish. And where there is oxygen, there is bacterial decay.

Perhaps the most definitive evidence is an utter lack of any Egyptian ships under water. They had some pretty impressive ships, we know because in they stored ship sections in man made caves near the Red Sea, that still exist. And where there are large ships, there are shipwrecks.

Not a trace underwater, though. The Red Sea is littered with wrecks, but most of them are modern. The further back you go, the less there is to find, until at a particular point, nothing. Even when the Red Sea was a very busy shipping lane.

No, you’re a world away from reality on that.

Go to patternsofevidence.com and pick up on reality, especially time wise.
