Episode: In this episode, James K. Hoffmeier discusses his new book — Israel In and Out of Egypt — an update of his previous books on the subject in light of the latest Egyptological discoveries, as well as the latest developments in Biblical scholarship in relation to the evidence for or against some form of a historical exodus.

Co-hosts: Mark Janzen, Chris McKinny, Oliver Hersey

Guest: James K. Hoffmeier is an Egyptologist and emeritus professor of Old Testament and Near Eastern archaeology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He taught Old Testament and Hebrew for 40+ years. For the last 20 years he has focused on Hebrew exegesis in the prophetic books.

He engaged in archaeological work in Sinai and at the Karnak Temple Complex in Egypt, and presently is part of a team investigating the Cushite cemetery at Nuri, Sudan.

Hoffmeier's published works include The Archaeology of the Bible and the book we're discussing in this episode, Israel In and Out of Egypt: The Archaeological and Historical Background to the Exodus (Hendrickson).  Plus, he's consulted for and appeared in a number of TV programs on Egypt and the Bible for the Discovery Channel, the Learning Channel, the History Channel, and National Geographic.
