Who Was the Pharaoh of the Exodus?

Who was the Pharaoh of the Exodus? Did the Exodus Account Actually Really Happen? Could the Bible's account of the Exodus be historically accurate? Is there archaeological evidence to support it? In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver sits down with biblical archaeologist Dr. Titus Kennedy to examine the biblical chronology, archaeological discoveries, and historical evidence surrounding one of Scripture's most debated events: the Exodus. Drawing from both Scripture and archaeology, Dr. Kennedy presents a compelling case for a 1446 BC Exodus and identifies Amenhotep II as the most likely Pharaoh of the Exodus. This conversation explores key biblical passages, Egyptian chronology, archaeological discoveries, and the evidence supporting the historical reliability of the Old Testament.
