Patterns of Evidence: Exodus
Patterns of Evidence: Exodus is a 2014 documentary film directed by Tim Mahoney.[2] The film presents the view that the biblical story of the Exodus of the Hebrew slaves from Egypt actually happened during the Middle Kingdom of Egypt. It was released at the Pan Pacific Film Festival in July 2014, and in theaters by Thinking Man Film on January 19, 2015.
The film describes numerous findings, including possible archaeological findings of evidence of Hebrew habitation in ancient Egypt, and new historical findings as to the timeline of the events of Exodus, as well as contemporary events in ancient Egypt. It also describes existing artifacts and documents from Ancient Egypt which experts have long debated.[3][4][5]
The film is somewhat - but not entirely - based on David Rohl's New Chronology which contradicts mainstream Egyptology.[6]
The film features interviews with archaeologists, historians, and biblical scholars.[7]
Patterns of Evidence: The Moses Controversy
Patterns of Evidence: The Moses Controversy is a 2019 documentary film directed by Tim Mahoney and sequel to Patterns of Evidence: Exodus. It examines whether Moses actually had the ability to write the events of the Exodus as a true eye-witness account, in relation to the traditional Mosaic authorship view that the "Five Books of Moses" (Pentateuch) were directly written by Moses himself, with the exceptions of the parts that describe Moses's death, or did the Exodus of Israel predate alphabetic writing.[8] This is compared with the evidence most biblical scholars use that shows that the Torah seems to appear in history in the 7th century BC at the earliest, centuries after the death of Moses, and other indications that the books were a compendium of stories from multiple authors (see documentary hypothesis). Patterns Of Evidence: The Moses Controversy was released in theaters on March 15, 2019, and has grossed $765,361 in the US as of March 24.[9]
