Even so, there are those 500,000 papyri, mostly from the New Kingdom, covering every aspect of Egyptian life at the time. And there are the archives of neighboring countries, containing thousands of tablets, all silent on the subject.

I'm a complete novice on the historical record, but I don't have to look hard to find something other than silence on the subject.

E.g, a much-discussed papyrus at the Museum of Leiden describing events paralleling the biblical account of plagues in Egypt mentioned here for example, and an inscription on a stele in Egypt translated as “Desolated Israel, that has lost its seed”, referenced here (Tomb of Mineptah).

You can try to dismiss or minimize such references, but don't pretend that they're nonexistent.
