1)That's because they are human beings they must have had bad leaders then.
2) It's because Arabs have littered the place with their annoying religion.

I UNDERSTAND THE NEED TO PLAY DUMB IN ORDER TO KEEP YOUR RELIGION GOING, BUT I'M GOING TO LET YOU KNOW THAT THESE CELEBRATIONS ARE JUST OLD TRADITIONS THAT ARE YET TO BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUGS.
CELEBRATING PASSOVER IS JUST LIKE CELEBRATING NEW YAM FESTIVALS IN MY VILLAGE. WE THANK THE GODS FOR SUPPLYING US WITH GOOD HARVEST AND HEALTHY BODIES, BUT DO WE STILL BELIEVE THAT AMADIOHA AND HIS FRIENDS ARE IN CHARGE OF ANYTHING? NO. WE'RE JUST PRACTICING AN OLD TRADITION BECAUSE IT'S FUN, THE SAME WAY AMERICANS CELEBRATE PAGANIC HALLOWEEN.

THERE IS NO INTELLIGENT ISRAELI TODAY THAT BELIEVE HIS ANCESTORS WERE SLAVES IN EGYPT. NO RECORDS SUPPORT THIS STORY. AT LEAST, SOME RECORDS SHOW THAT THE YORUBAS OF NIGERIA MIGRATED TO THE SOUTH AMERICAS, AND THE IGBO PEOPLE MOVED FROM ISRAEL (MAY NOT BE FACTS). BUT THERE IS ZERO EXISTING RECORD FOR A MASS EXODUS FROM EGYPT, HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? BECAUSE THE STORY IS FALSE.
ISRAELI HISTORIANS DON'T SUPPORT THIS STORY BECAUSE THEY CAN'T FIND ANY RECORDS.
ISRAELI ARCHEOLOGISTS DON'T SUPPORT THIS STORY BECAUSE THERE'S NO DATA THAT SUPPORT IT.
ISRAELITES DON'T SUPPORT THIS STORY BECAUSE IT MAKES NO SENSE.
BUT YOU AFRICANS CAN GO AHEAD BECAUSE YOUR BIBLE AND YOUR SILLY BELIEFS SHOULD ALWAYS COME BEFORE REASON AND RESEARCH.

That you don't find any 'record' as you expect is biblically supported. The Israelites spoiled the Egyptians when going. They didn't leave ANYTHING behind even though Pharaoh insisted. Moses said they would take everything and everyone because they don't know which one they need to worship Jehovah.

Exo 10:26 KJV Our cattle also shall go with us; there shall not an hoof be left behind; for thereof must we take to serve the LORD our God; and we know not with what we must serve the LORD, until we come thither.

THE JEWS AND ISRAELITES EVEN REJECT THE STORY. THEY'VE LONG APOLOGIZED TO EGYPT ON BEHALF OF THE AUTHORS OF THIS LIE.

THE EGYPTIANS (SO CALLED SLAVE MASTERS) REJECT THIS STORY AS THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF THE EVENTS THAT HAPPENED.
THE ISRAELITES (SO CALLED SLAVES) REJECT THIS STORY AS THEY WERE NEVER ENSLAVED BY ANYONE.

GUESS WHO ARGUE THAT THE EGYPTIANS AND ISRAELITES ARE WRONG?
CHRISTIANS IN NIGERIA, THAT ARE NEITHER ISRAELITES NOR EGYPTIANS.

Explorers:
Pictured, the 3,245 years old unbroken seal that secured king Tutankhamun's tomb when Howard Carter and his team were preparing to enter and excavate the tomb in 1923.

When King Tutankhamen’s tomb was found, it was reported that the following inscription was near the door:

"Death shall come on swift wings to him who disturbs the peace of the King.”


Curse inscription seen at the entrance of another tomb discovered:

‘All people who enter this tomb, make evil against this tomb and destroy it, may the crocodile be against them in water and snakes against them on land.

May the hippopotamus be against them on water and the scorpion against them on land.’



See here:

https://www.nairaland.com/4239075/creepiest-ancient-egyptian-curses-unleashed


They mummifed their dead, preserved the bodies,
wrapped the bodies, performed rituals placed bodies in coffins, they sealed coffins and sealed the tombs from any sort of disturbance or tomb robbers/raiders.

Thousands of years later, some people broke the seals to these tombs, uncovered the coffins/sarcophagus, remove the mummies and place them in museums.


Anyway, i wish to visit Egypt someday and see these mummies with my eos 100d.
I think the seal protects the sarcophagus where his internals are kept and not the entire tomb. Glad to have you back roaring explorers.

there's no historical or archeological evidence to show Rameses II was the biblical Pharaoh, I dare you to show us here.



The figure of Moses is well-known:
Yet, outside of biblical scripture, there is next to no evidence in the archaeological and historical record of Moses's existence. There is no exact time frame for when the events of Exodus may have occurred -- with scholarly conjecture spanning more than half a millennium. Nor do we know the identity of the villainous Pharaoh in the Bible, cast in films repeatedly as Ramesses II. That pharaoh is famed for his conquests and building projects. But in their digs and readings of inscriptions and papyrus, historians have found no trace of Moses under Ramesses's reign





I thought you said the bible didn't make mention of a name. There is a thin line between reason and folly.

many scholars are inclined to accept that Exodus has King Ramses II in mind. The Bible confirms that the Israelites were to build “supply cities, Pithom and Ramses, for Pharaoh.” Egyptian records confirm that the kings of the 19th dynasty (ca 1293–1185 B.C.E.) launched a major mili­tary program in the Levant. As part of this effort, King Seti I (ca 1290–1279 B.C.E.) built a new garri­son city, which his successor, Ramses II (ca 1279– 1213 B.C.E.), later called Pi-Ramesses. Ramses II also built a second city dedicated to his personal patron, Atum, called Per Atum

You know nothing about the Jews. The Passover is the most sacred celebration of the jews lasting seven days with the first and seventh day a legal public holiday ..Yet you think it's just another celebration by people who don't believe the significance of the celebration. Ignorance at its peak. Jews don't celebrate what they don't believe in. The absence of Christmas in a Jewish calendar should tell you that.

The bible writer should have mentioned it but they didn't. They knew they would be found out as eqyptians kept receipts. The is also no evidence of slaves being chased out of Egypt it would have been a suicide mission. The bible is no different to Oduduwa failing from heaven tales

Hmmmm!
Interesting, myths are no match for truths.
The surest historical book in the world is the Bible. No manipulation of men can obliterate this.
Even the chief manipulator- the devil knows this. Falsehood is only but a tenant, the truth is always the Landlord.
The Bible will always speak for itself.
We can not do anything against the truth!

It's not unusual as the same ancient Egyptians never kept record of their defeats. The outcome of Israel's slavery was their Exodus from Egypt, which could count as a loss for Egypt. Just saying.

I do not intend to make you appear purposefully ignorant, but don't you consider yourself a bit funny typing the above texts in bold with so much ferociousness?

There is a Jewish public holiday called Pesach (The Passover) which is celebrated by all Jews around the world, everyone knows this, everyone except you it seems.

So if you claim that the Jews have rejected the story of their enslavement in Egypt, do pray tell, what is this Passover they are still celebrating every year worldwide?

Don't answer smiley

I like your constructions and submissions. Well structured, organised and devoid of rudeness.

These people don't know that if it were possible for USA and other countries who were involved in slave trade to clear that part from history, they would have done that.
Even here in Nigeria, after the Biafran war, they had to prevent history from being studied in schools.
