Exodus was not in Egypt

Mohsen

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
In Asia, Alexander the Great was known as Κύριος της Ασίας
that is 'Kurios of Asias ' and Κύριος from κῦρος is indistinguishable
with the name Cyrus 'Kūruš'

Isaiah 45:1
Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, Alexander the Great

Are you also aware that Alexander the Great is Dhul-Qarnayn and an entire
chapter in the Quran is dedicated to him. ( Surah 18 Verses 83:101 )

Dhull-Qarnayn means 'Two-horns' because how he was depicted.

main-qimg-2c11a9f9b2e257c6efb4e93537ae2acb


The horns symbolise his defeat of Tyre with his use of battering rams and
that is the real reason Jews blow the ram horns.

Deuteronomy 33:17
His horns are like the horns of unicorns ( Rams)
Exodus 34:35 'קָרַן מֹשֶׁה '
Horned Moses ( Qaran Mosheh )

I'm sorry, but Pihahiroth not appearing in the Septuagint is not strong enough evidence for me that it is not an Egyptian word. Even if Hebrew is the only language displaying the roots, it could be a shared word like for instance Toledo, Ohio could be Toledot or Chronicles and yet it is an English word.

However I am not sure if Hebrew is showing the roots. You have a lot of roots that are spelled differently, and I just don't know enough about roots to change their letters to make a word.

Pihahiroth is a pure Hebrew word with a definite article in the middle of it.

פִּי הַ חִרֹת

It is possible it's related to Phaethon ( Φα έθων )

Pa-Ethon ' Burnt mouth , Ethon , from αἴθω ( Burning heat ) that
is related to אַתּוּן (Atun ) and תַּנּוּר ( Tnur ) .

It was Phaethon's flaming chariot that plunged into the Eridanos and this name sounding suspiciously like Jordan.

Phaethon ( Φα έθων ) would be פי אש or פיאשון or פישון
Aethiopia ( Αιθιο πα ) is reversed אשפי or אשפיון

The word Paradise can be derived from Hebrew, פרדאש ( Paradesh ) for that is how Eden was watered, see Gen 2:6 that begins with אֵד from אוּד ' Firebrand ' .

אשפרד ' Hesperides '

Genesis 13:10
Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all around of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah the vineyard, even as the garden of the LORD

Hmm... so you think Exodus was made up?

I looked up

פִּי הַ חִרֹת

in Google translate and it said, "You're yelling." With a space it was "Her mouth pierced." You are telling me but you are not proving it to me. I'm not saying I'm not too stupid to understand, but nevertheless you are telling me and not proving to me.

Google won't translate Ancient Hebrew.

Archaeologists have found many of the places mentioned in Exodus. If anything archaeology helps confirm Exodus. It certainly does not disprove it.

I'm not sure where people come up with all these crazy theories to disprove Exodus. Exodus happened exactly as written exactly when it was written to have taken place.

Egyptology have utterly destroyed the Exodus , there is no evidence what-so-ever , It as being debunked over and over again

"The Great Pyramid was created before the 'Earth' was apparently created and Dinosaurs were created by Satan to fool people "

Go ahead and put a date on the Exodus, it won't work.

Jews do don't care, most Rabbi's believe the Torah stories are allegorical , but Jews are generally more intelligent then Christians, demographic fact.

Exodus 14:2 -
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baal-zephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.
The Exodus Route: Migdol "Watchtower" (this website isn't that bad)
Migdol was a watchtower and they were all over Egypt.
Baal-zephon was a Canaanite storm God suggesting they were before Canaan.
It was also an Island apparently.
If it was between Migdol and the Sea, and over against Baal-zephon,
couldn't it be outside of Egypt, at least to them?
If it was outside of Egypt, or promising of Exodus from Egypt, couldn't the Hebrews have named it "Burnt Mouth or White Mouth" in their language? Perhaps it was considered outside of Egypt because it was on the beach.

I understand that it was commonplace for ancient people to name places they passed, regardless of if they had other names already.

Songs 4:7 - Migdol of Lebanon
Joshua 13:27 - the valley, Betharam, and Bethnimrah, and Succoth, and Zaphon

צָפוֹן ' Saphon ' means North , but also a wind-direction but more importantly
Saphon is the Ugaritic or archaic name for Mount Hermon

The Hebrew word exists in the Greek language, as χῶρον meaning 'the North-west wind '
in Hebrew 'Yam Saphon ' ( 'Yam Suwp ) YAM also means West.

Suphah also means storm-wind

www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?strongs=H5492
Greek Word Study Tool

The mountain or summit is referred to as Saphon in Ugaritic texts where the palace of Ba'al is located in a myth about Attar.

Are you sure you got that verse right? (Songs 4:7)
And even if there are Migdol in Lebanon, doesn't it still just mean "Watchtower?"

If it Songs 4:8, since I cannot find a Hebrew translation, can you show me which word means Migdol or just answer my second question?

From Wikipedia Migdol - Jeremiah referred to a "Migdol" in Egypt, (Jeremiah 44:1) an island in the Nile, and Ezekiel referred to the Migdol of Syene, in Upper Egypt, in the context of the seat of government. The letters of Šuta refer to a "Magdalu in Egypt" which Albright identified with Jeremiah's Migdol. [1]

Migdol that is also written Megiddo or Arm-Megiddo ( Tower of Syria )
and that is the origin of the word Armageddon

Zechariah 12:11
The mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

The word valley, in this verse is 'בִּקְעָה biq`ah' that is exclusively used to describe Coele-Syria also named Beqaa Valley

Beqaa Valley - Wikipedia

This might be the Migdol
Kamouh el Hermel - Wikipedia

You are smarter than most of the people on this thread, but judging from their reactions your material does not seem airtight.

Migdol just means tower and there were some in Egypt.

From Wikipedia Migdol - Jeremiah referred to a "Migdol" in Egypt, (Jeremiah 44:1) an island in the Nile, and Ezekiel referred to the Migdol of Syene, in Upper Egypt, in the context of the seat of government. The letters of Šuta refer to a "Magdalu in Egypt" which Albright identified with Jeremiah's Migdol. [1]

פִּי הַ חִרֹת

could be a name the Hebrews made up for themselves as a landmark.

Jeremiah 44:1

Egypt - Mizraim - Between Two streams * Beqaa Valley
Tahpanhes (Daphne) - port-town in Antioch (on of Orontes)
Pathros - 'country of Cedar Trees' - Phoenicia
Noph - Nephtoah * Joshua 15:9 - Syria-Lebanon

Here are the wikipedia pages on these places, nothing, no one can geographically identify them.

There is also an Heliopolis in Lebanon too
Baalbek - Wikipedia

Amos 1:5
I will break also the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the plain of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of Eden: and the people of Syria shall go into captivity unto Kir, saith the LORD.

That word AVEN in the Septuagint usually written as 'ἡλίου πόλεως
that is Heliopolis.

'Plain of Aven ' ( Aven in Beqaa Valley )

Amos 1:5 also puts Eden in Lebanon as does Ezekiel
in 31:16 ' all the trees of Eden , the choice and best of Lebanon'

We are still uncovering geographic names as data comes in, but I wouldn't count M-Tz-R-A-I-M in that list, since like Mohsen said that is what it is called today.

I don't care if there is a Heliopolis in Lebanon. I am sticking to the subject. I don't have time to litigate the whole Bible, but if people think something is interesting I am happy to go through one subject at a time.
