    Exodus 1446 BC

    There are two major dates for the the Exodus. One of which is 1446 BC which has been calculated through dates given in the bible. In order for this fifteenth century date to be to be used numbers given in 1 Kings 6:1 and Judges 11:26 must be taken literally. For example, "First Kings 6:1 dates the exodus 480 years before Solomon built the temple in 966 BC. By simple addition, we derive the fifteenth century BC date, 1446, for the exodus" (Arnold 83). further information included in word Doc.
