say! The 8 parallels that are listed are strong points, however, and they make it very likely that the manuscript is about the plagues (especially the river being blood). CONCLUSION We see that the Ipuwer Papyrus displays strong extra-biblical evidence for the historicity of the Exodus in its description of a chaotic Egypt that would have resulted from the biblical 10 plagues. In addition, Table 1 lists some direct parallels between statements in the manuscript and in the biblical narrative. It is important to date the events described in the manuscript at the right time in history, to recognize the divergence of the conventional and biblical timelines, and to accept the concurrence of the 6 th and 12 th Dynasties of Egypt. The Ipuwer Papyrus is therefore a powerful biblical apologetic. REFERENCES A shton, J., and D. Down. 2006. Unwrapping the pharaohs . Green Forest, Arkansas: Master Books. Butzer, K.W. 2012.
