      Not to well-actually you, but there’s no archeological evidence to suggest the entire flight-from-Egypt thing actually happened.

      Israelites, as a whole, were never enslaved by Egypt and never wandering through the desert. There probably were refugees absorbed that came up from Egypt, which creates the stories that then became part of the collective psyche, but it was a relative handful.
