Best Answer

A:

According to The Bible, Moses certainly led the Hebrews on a long journey out of Egypt, towards the Promised Land. The Book of Genesis says that only Abraham and Sarah journeyed into the land of the Canaanites, because Abraham was to be the ancestor of the Hebrew people.

From a historical perspective, the answer is no, in both cases. Historians say the story of Abraham is clearly legendary, with no historical basis. The respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein says that over ninety per cent of scholars believe there was no Exodus from Egypt asdescribed in the Bible. The epic journeys of the Bible simply did not happen.
