Implications of the Archaeological Dating of the Destruction of Jericho –
1) The Pharaoh of the Oppression and
2) Hebrew Slaves NOT brought out of Egypt (zone of Egyptian control)
 
 
Archaeological finding and logical conclusions
After Moses, the Bible gives us Joshua and the destruction of Jericho. Archaeology gives us the destruction of Jericho at approximately 1415 BCE.
Conclusions:
1) Moses did not have a showdown with Ramesses the Great (1279-1213 BCE).
2) The Hebrew Slaves were not brought out of the Egypt because after 1415 B.C.E. in 1352 B.C.E. forward 17 years, Mayor/client kings of Egypt in the Promise Land were referring to 18th Dynasty Pharaohs as “my lord and my Sun … I fall at the feet of the king, my lord and my Sun, seven times and seven times. [Amarna Letters]”

The above is based on what I have read at Biblical Archaeology Review (BAR).

I look forward to your replies based on sources as acceptable as BAR.
