Tuthmose III text I posted a long excerpt from. So, given all this
physical (the tell of Megiddo) and textual (Amarna Letters and
Tuthmose III inscription) do you base your claim that there was no
civilization with walled cities in the area?

Help me out here.  Does it include anything about the need to wander
about in the desert for forty years without visible means of support
except some kind of food from the sky?

How MANY times DO I have to repeat this until it gets through: I
accept Biblical accounts _where independently corroborated from
ancient souces or credible evidence_.

The Exodus is neither corroborated or have credible evidence, so I
don't treat that as factual.

Sat sapienti, at least I hope so....
