Alfred Edersheim proposes in his &#8220;Old Testament Bible History&#8221;[31] that Thutmoses II is best qualified to be the pharaoh of Exodus based on the fact that he had a brief, prosperous reign and then a sudden collapse with no son to succeed him. His widow Hatshepsut then became first Regent (for Thutmoses III) then Pharaoh in her own right. Edersheim states that Thutmoses II is the only Pharaoh&#8217;s mummy to display cysts, possible evidence of plagues which spread through the Egyptian and Hittite Empires at that time.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Thutmose_II\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(source)<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>In any case, the exodus belongs to History. But not the Hollywood way. Not that big.\u00a0A\u00a0few hundred fugitives in the desert behind Moses, who was a member of the royal family, while pharaoh\u00a0pursued them with army. French author and researcher Albert Slosman titled one of this books Moses The Egyptian. He was not only Egyptian, he was the king of Egypt, pharaoh Tutmoses III.<\/p>\n<p>The Bible tells us that the old pharaoh died before the Hebrew people has regained freedom. Exit Thutmoses I. The exodus thus took place under the reign of his\u00a0heir and brother, Thutmoses II,\u00a0who\u00a0married\u00a0his niece Hatshepsut.<\/p>\n<p>But his reign did not last long enough. That&#8217;s why many Egyptologists lean more to the reign of his son and successor, Thutmoses III. Serious arguments seem to support this view.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Several elements of biblical origin are in favor of the identification of Thutmoses III with the &#8220;Pharaoh of the Exodus.&#8221; Thus, date calculations on what is known about the death of Thutmoses III through the biography of Amenemheb (who served under several pharaohs in Egyptian navy) would fix this death to the year -1450, in the month of March or April, which coincides well with the Biblical indications.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Another interesting aspect about Thutmoses III concerns the dating of his mummy, which led to an estimated age at death between 40 and 45.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>However, Thutmoses III reigned 54 years, and he would have been\u00a0at least 60 when he died &#8230; It is possible that another body was substituted, which would make sense if it was impossible to give burial to\u00a0his body disappeared in the Red Sea.&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0<em><a href=\"#\">(source)<\/a><span class=\"note\">Wikipedia<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>But this is pure speculation. Anyway, all this script\u00a0makes sense. Thutmoses I, II and III vs\u00a0Mosis \/ Moses. Thutmoses I deported to Egypt the small Jewish people who then was\u00a0only 1,800. Abraham&#8217;s children will outnumber the stars of heaven, promised the Lord. They were\u00a0not there yet, but it was a start.<\/p>\n<p>I think Thutmoses I is the biblical pharaoh who protected Moses and gave him the education and the dignified initiation of a crown prince. I think his brother Thutmoses II or nephew Thutmoses III was the Pharaoh of the Exodus, who with all his army pursued the fugitives Moses and the Hebrews.<\/p>\n<p>What a story! One point, I even thought that Moses&#8217; wife, the beautiful Zipporah the Midianite woman was none other than Queen Hatshepsut herself.
