Jesus, Last of the Pharaohs

By Ralph Ellis

The Israelite pharaohs of Egypt

Revised 2015

The opening move of the Egyptian Testament: the Hyksos ‘Shepherd Kings’ of Lower Egypt are the biblical patriarchs, and their expulsion is the Exodus. From that identification the New Testament investigation begins — including the claim that Saul of Tarsus is the historian Josephus Flavius.

• Abraham and Jacob as Hyksos pharaohs, not pastoral shepherds
• The Israelite Exodus as the historical Hyksos expulsion, c. 1570 BC
• Saul identified with Josephus Flavius
