This sounds very similar to some of Velikovsy's assertions; that there was a several hundred year bust in the Egyptologists' chronology, and that resolving that lined up Biblical history with Ancient Egyptian records and documents to a surprising degree.

Egyptologists have said for years that there was no evidence that an independent Israel ever existed; correct the chronology, though, and the Biblical personages and events step out onto the stage in sharp focus.

I don't believe that Egyptologists have said anything of the sort. As a matter of fact, there is the dedication of Merneptah, a New Kingdom Pharoah who invaded the Middle East. He specifically mentions the Hebrews as a group he conquered.

But Pharoahs and Kings IS a great book with solid evidence presented to substantiate the author's theories. Velkovsky's books border on fiction.
