The Exodus Decoded

About this movie

The Exodus. The very word invokes an epic tale of Pharaohs and Israelites, plagues and miracles, the splitting of the sea, the drowning of an army, Moses and revelation. The story is at the very heart of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. After six years of research, working with archeologists, Egyptologists, geologists and theologians, Simcha Jacobovici came to the groundbreaking conclusion that the Exodus took place hundreds of years earlier than previously thought. With this new timetable in hand, Jacobovici and his colleagues re-examined long ignored archeological artifacts and uncovered the truth about the Exodus and the Egyptian dynasty that ruled at the time. The producers teamed up with some of the world's most accomplished special effects designers to create a unique digital, organic experience of the Exodus. Blending archeological findings with modern eye catching effects, Jacobovici built a virtual museum to showcase his discoveries.

Ratings and reviews

This gave a plausible physiological explanation to the entire exodus story, ranging from the cause of the plagues, to the parting of the Red Sea. An interesting theory that makes sense of the facts. If the evidence has been interpreted correctly, this documentary could be one of the best easy to digest apologetic documentaries on the Exodus ever. Unexpectedly Brilliant. 4 stars.

The biggest fallacy in the Bible is the parting of the Red Sea . Due to mis- translation in mediaeval times the true area (Reed Sea) in Egypt's delta region , has been mistaken by generations to be the Red Sea . The plagues of Egypt can be easily explained by the effects caused by the eruption of Santorini volcano , this is explained clearly by the author. Many more examples of alternative to conventional thought are presented in this work

Its a good story. but thats it. the historical locations are wrong. entertaining tho.
