Max talks to Alexander Hool, author of Pharaoh: Biblical History, Egypt, and the Missing Millennium about alternative theories on the chronology of ancient Egypt as it relates to the Exodus and other biblical narratives. They explore the controversy surrounding the story of the Exodus, the rise and fall of ancient Egypt, contrasting approaches to gathering evidence and building chronology, issues with associating Ramses II with the pharaoh of the Exodus, evidence for the Exodus, and exploring an alternative perspective on ancient Egypt by investigating the sixth dynasty.
