Title: This is a hypothesis that can't be ignored, like some flaws it has.
Review: I've read a few hypothesis on the Hebrew origins. All are better than the tale that millions of slaves were lost in a small desert for forty years or that God chose a people that could only sustain a society for less than a millenium, in the face of Egypt, Babylon, Rome, Mayan, and even Chinese civilizations. The hypothesis this book sets forth goes along way to show the link between and exiled cult of Monotheistic Egyptians that followed the lost Pharoah Akhenaten. The fact that Akhenaten is the first recorded Monotheist alone shatters the long held belief that Hebrews were the first. Where it goes wrong is to try and explain parts of the Hebrew tradition that have already been proven to be lifted from Babylonian sources. This is a great read for people searching for themselves. Like everything it has to be taken with a grain of salt which is why I gave it 4 stars, but its an excellent addition to my library on Hebrew Origins.
