Ipuwer Papyrus: Evidence for the Plagues of Egypt
by Owen Borville

​Bible, Archaeology, History

An ancient Egyptian scroll gives evidence for the Biblical plagues of Egypt recorded in the Book of Exodus. The Ipuwer Papyrus is an ancient Egyptian papyrus manuscript that dates to the believed time of the Exodus event.

Secular researchers claim that the manuscript dates to a different time than the Biblical Exodus, and therefore cannot refer to or describe the same events.

However, a study of the descriptions of the events in the manuscript parallel closely with the Biblical Exodus account.

The manuscript describes that the "The river is blood" and mentions several times about servants running away, a parallel to the Exodus account.

Other mentions in the manuscript that parallel the Exodus include:

"Plague is through the land"
"Blood is everywhere"
"Consumed by fire"
"Cattle moan"
"Cattle are left to stray"
"The land is without light"
"and thirst after water"
"lower Egypt weeps"
"grain has perished"
"The children of princes are dashed against the walls, cast out into the streets"
"He who places his brother into the ground is everywhere"
"Groaning throughout the land"
Female slaves described wearing Egyptian jewelry

In addition, Biblical scholars believe that secular researchers have incorrectly inflated the dates of Egyptian chronology, and that the manuscript is likely from the same time period as the Biblical Exodus.

Even if the manuscript described a different event, the described events are very similar to the Exodus events and therefore are events that have been recorded as happening.

The similarities to the Exodus account give strong evidence of the parallel association, in addition to the date of writing using Biblically accurate chronology.
