A:Neither the Jews nor their Hebrew ancestors were actually slaves in Egypt. Almost all scholars now acknowledge that the Hebrew people did not sojourn in Egypt and there was no Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible. They say the Israelites really emerged from among the local Bronze age Canaanites. The story in the Bible tells it differently. Joseph was the most senior man in Egypt, after the pharaoh, but a later pharaoh enslaved his Israelite subjects. The Israelites were required to work harder and harder, with hard bondage (Exodus 1:13-14), yet later in Exodus, at chapter 12, the Israelite houses were so good that the angel would need a sign, just to know which houses belonged to the Israelite. Since the Israelites are depicted as having their own cattle, they would have been a relatively free and prosperous class of slaves.
It is now accepted by some leading authorities, such as National Geographic, that contrary to popular belief, the pyramid builders were not slaves or foreigners. Excavated skeletons show that they were Egyptians who lived in villages developed and overseen by the pharaoh's supervisors.
