Egyptologist and historian, David Rohl, has written a new book to accompany the “Patterns of Evidence” documentary movie. Exodus – Myth or History? lays out the archaeological and historical evidence for the Middle Bronze Age Exodus Theory that features so strongly in Timothy Mahoney’s film.
This is a book for those who want to examine the evidence in detail … but it is also an absorbing and captivating read. The Archaeology Correspondent for the British newspaper The Daily Mail wrote, “David Rohl’s books have convinced me that he is one of the most brilliant and original minds now engaged in writing ancient history. If he hadn’t been a historian he would have been a terrific mystery writer.”

David Rohl – best-selling author and historian – is recognised as one of Egyptology’s most powerful communicators. Here, in this two disc set, Rohl sets out to challenge the current consensus amongst academics that the Bible is predominantly a work of fiction. His obvious mastery of the subject in this four-hour presentation clarifies why evidence for the early history in the Bible has previously been missed.
Rohl begins by setting up the controversy and then begins to present his arguments for the proper historical setting for Joseph and the early Israelites. He goes on to reveal evidence for the time of Moses, the Exodus and the Conquest. Rohl ends with the time of Israel’s kings Saul, David and Solomon. Were the early Israelites really Canaanites as many academics say? Was Ramesses the pharaoh of the Exodus? Did Solomon really rule over a rich and glorious empire? David Rohl’s thought-provoking lectures confront the status quo with compelling evidence for the veracity of the Old Testament narratives.
