Holy shit, this. Resurrection of Jesus is the biggest ret-con ever.

Not him, but according to legend, the first temple was sacked by the Babylonians in the 6th century B.C.

Depending on account, the ark was either taken back to Babylon and then lost during successive sacks of that city, or was hidden away before the defenses fell.

And yes, people look for it, but good luck finding it. Plus, if you hold by the "they hid it away" theory, a lot of the areas around Temple Mount aren't accessible to archeologists these days owing to all the political tension.

The Holy Roman Empire being holy, roman or an empire

Voltaire being anything but an edgy neckbeard that was wrong about everything, especially the HRE.

You not being a butthurt Kraut who wants to refer to their "empire" as "roman"

>Jewish Exodus

There's evidence for two human migratory events in the second millennium bc, but neither recorded leader names, (specific) spirituality aspects, or (necessarily) ethnicity. To the point, Egypt was particularly bad before the Ptolemaic era at reporting their failings.

The first was under Ahmose I. Those who remained of the Semitic (second intermediate) 15th dynasty of lower (northern) Egypt fled to Canaan with the Egyptian military in pursuit. Those who were captured were brought back into slavery. This was somewhere between 1533bc and 1524bc, depending on reckoning.

Some second event is referenced toward the end of the reign of Horemheb, His wanton destruction of any trace of monuments erected during the reign of Akenhaten caused some dissent in the north and apparently "some people" emigrated over the issue. Some interesting facts, he died suddenly and his tomb wasn't finished before he was buried, he never produced a heir that lived and one woman who was presumably a wife was buried with a fetus or newborn (difficult to distinguish in the remain's form) and some of his history was literally overwritten during reigns of 19th dynasty pharaohs. It doesn't specifically say "Habiru" in this event, it doesn't mention any Moses, it doesn't talk about a parted Red or Reed Sea. It says only, basically, that some people left.

What's my point. There's some evidence for two Exodus events, but neither share explicit details with the OT rendition (except arguably the death of a Pharaoh's first born in a time line and subsequent pattern of events which would seem to "fit" before the Merneptah stele)

There was a Nubian Dynasty (the 25th) in Egypt (from the Kingdom of Kush, top kek). They were probably black.

Jewish Exodus probably happened.

Jesus was probably a real person. Also b8

Probably parabolic rather than historical.

A bearded Jew went up a mountain and took a bunch of shrooms.

Julius Caesar was black

There were actually a number of depiction of "Egyptian women" who were both black and brown in the renditions. There's not alot of guesswork there, if you show women, side by side, of various skin tones, to debate against the fact "there were black Egyptians and there were brown Egyptians".

some food for thought

Yeh, they had no trouble distinguishing in art who was brown and who was black. There were, however, high ranking military people, viziers and priests who were definitely black, and there were periods in Egyptian history wherein parts of Egypt (upper, or south, Thebans) were ruled by blacks, and those Egyptians would have called "those kings" as "pharaohs", too. So it's a vague question, "were Egyptian pharaohs black?". Some were, some could have been, most were not, and certainly not all were not, nor would the answer be "none". Ptolemaic "pharaohs" were decidedly not black or brown, but Greek, whatever shade of olive that might have been, but likely leaning toward the "anglo end" of the spectrum.

Black Pharaohs actually did happen though.

>The 25th dynasty was a line of rulers originating in the Nubian Kingdom of Kush – in present-day northern Sudan and southern Egypt – and most saw Napata as their spiritual homeland. They reigned in part or all of Ancient Egypt from 760 BC to 656 BC.[1]

>brown and who was black
yes, and they also depicted semetic people much lighter then themselves....egyptians were clearly depicting themselves as african

i sincerely hope that this is a bad attempt at bait and not a real opinion of yours

In his time it was none of those things. It was at least 2 out of 3 for most of history
