What is the Bible, chopped liver? Although tradition ascribes authorship of Genesis through Deuteronomy to Moses and the book of Joshua to the military leader Joshua, secular scholars have realized for a long time these books were written centuries after the events they describe - or purport to describe. Archaeologists agree that whoever wrote the stories of Joseph and the Exodus knew Egypt well. That's not surprising. Egypt and the states of Israel and Judah were close neighbors. The territory of Canaan had been ruled by Egypt off and on for centuries prior to the rise of those states. And foe centuries afterward, Egypt continued to intervene militarily in the region. During troubles between the state of Judah and the Babylonian Empire, large numbers of Judeans (including the prophet Jeremiah) fled to Egypt as refugees.
