For example I don't think Joshua was born when the actual Exodus began or if he was he wasn't of the age of accountability. The generation that rebelled against GOD in the wilderness did not see The Promised Land.

Numbers 14, K.J.B.:

29 Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me.

30 Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun.

31 But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised.

Thanks for the ping WKB. I can't comment on the television version, as I haven't seen it. If they don't make mention of "ancient astronaut theorists", maybe it will encourage people to read the Bible on their own.

I've heard that it is going to be a 10 hour series, I don't have time to dedicate that much time to the t.v. version, I dedicate more time than that to reading and studying the Bible every week and have for many years.

I also recommend Sunday School, as well as church, it's not just for children. I'm fortunate that I have a knowledgeable teacher, he is 86 years old and one of the most knowledgeable, biblical scholars ,that I've ever met. He's a humble man and probably would deny that but it is my opinion.

Thanks Graybeard my bad. Yea I read the passages you posted later on last night. I knew that the generation of age coming out of The Exodus was not allowed to enter The Promised Land but I forgot about the two exceptions one being Joshua. It's been a while since I've read about The Exodus entirely.

I did notice something interesting. Looking at their crossing of The Red Sea I think they implied that they went with a more modern venue now believed to have been the crossing site. Some scholars say they crossed in the upper Red Sea in shallow areas. As well the traditional Mt Sinai is in Egypt and was even in The Exodus. So that never made any sense to me until I learned of a more suspected accurate route.

The real Mt Sinai likely from evidence of several sources is located in modern Saudi Arabia and the likely crossing was at the Strait of Tiran. I've looked at satellite pictures and the straits are so narrow there only one ship can pass in or out at a time.
