Week Forty Nine: The Exodus Case



The Exodus Case by Dr Lennart Moller is a book that purports to prove that the book of Exodus is an historially accurate portrayal of the actual events of history.


Spoiler alert - it does not.


There's a LOT of information in this - and it looks scientific - but a cursory glance at the offered proof and backing evidence shows it to be at best misguided or generously the product of belief and not method.


For a writer claiming to be unbiased and to not preach - he does an extraordinary amount of both.


Perhaps best summarised, belief is a matter of faith. If you have faith my opinion does not matter. Then again neither does this guy's.


Next week I'm getting inexorably closer to the end of the Lucifer Effect. (From god to the devil in one easy segue).
