Archeology, radiocarbon dating, historical documents do have something to say about the biblical Exodus. The question is whether or not those sciences can confirm the probable existence of such an event. The answer to that is a definite....Yes.

The question should not be why I would use the book of Jasher but why it was deemed necessary post-Babylonian exile that the book was made to disappear from the annals of Judaism. We know it was in existence and well preserved at the time of the Babylonian exile because we know that Nebuchadnezzar requested that he be provided with a copy. But 70 years later, with the rebuilding of a new Israel, the Book of Jasher was expunged from our historical documents.

Finding the historical references takes time and effort but they can be found. Rediscovering the Exodus 4, http://hubpages.com/t/18ead3 looks at the possible history behind Moses and how he was able to integrate into the Royal Dynasties of Egypt and eventually establish a monotheistic religion amongst the Apiru and Shazu slaves of the Delta. Whereas there are those that say there is nothing in Egyptian history to support these events, I wish to show on the contrary, there is a wealth of information available if we learn how to examine it in the proper context.
