    There are many theories that attempt to explain the basis behind the biblical story of the Exodus. Most use archeological evidence to try and explain what the biblical story is based off of‚ or if it is rooted in fact.

To contradict this‚ in other chapters of the Bible God can be found trying to instill fear into people so that they believe in him‚ or do what he wants of them. In both instances it shows how different God can be seen and why believers can have doubts about how God really
