| | MOSES IN ANCIENT EGYPT |
 | | Century BC, when the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, in the basin of the “Vale of Siddim”, were completely flooded and destroyed by the explosive formation of the Dead Sea itself. |
 | | When the seven years of famine commenced, around 1567 BC, only Egypt held sufficient reserves of corn and grain to both survive the future and to be able to sell their excess stocks to the starving peoples of the neighbouring lands, at a high premium, of course. |
 | | It becomes very difficult to make a case dating either JACOB or JOSEPH after about 1540 BC, since all of the corroboratory evidence, both archaeological and historical, connects them compellingly to the period running up until that, but immediately after, their legend is entirely incompatible with the known internal history and politics of Egypt. |
