The Date; The Route; The Archaeology An objective search for what really happened

Introduction
Has the Exodus really happened as described in the books of Exodus, Numbers and Deutronomy? Minimalist archaeologists such as Israel Finkelstein say:
"Putting aside the possibility of divinely inspired miracles, one can hardly accept the idea of a flight of a large group of slaves from Egypt through the heavily guarded border fortifications into the desert and then into Canaan in the time of such formidable Egyptian precense."[1]
Others, like the adventurer Ron Wyatt, claim to have found several important places from the book of Exodus.
In this blog, I want you to tell what really happened in 1400 BC. I am not a scientist, though I want to become one. I am a fellow of a very fundamentalist church, the The Netherlands Reformed Congregations. However, I believe e.g. in the evolution theory and I wouldn't forsee any problems when scientific results show that the exodus couldn't have happened.
To understand my articles properly, you must read the articles from up to down. The latest article is at the bottom.
I wish you much pleasure with reading my articles, Scientist
