About This Book
The work surveys Egyptian history and topography relevant to biblical times, tracing periods from the patriarchal era through the Exodus, the Israelite monarchies, and the Ptolemaic age. It re-examines Herodotos' route and observations in Egypt in light of contemporary excavations, reassesses contacts between Egyptians and Hebrews, and outlines sites such as Memphis and the Fayyûm. The narrative integrates recent archaeological finds, including temples, tombs, and seal inscriptions, discusses hypotheses about Hyksos and Kassite connections, and supplies appendices with practical information on nomes, chronological notes, and classical authors for visitors and students.
