But when archaeologists dig into the ruins of their capital, Avaris, they find no evidence of a war. So, who were they really?In this episode, we investigate the theory that the "Hyksos" weren't invaders at all; they were the family of Jacob. We’ll connect the dots between the biblical story of Joseph and the historical King "Salatis," a name that isn't Egyptian, but a Greek translation of the Semitic title Ha-Shallit ("The Governor").Join me as I brush away the sand from a Syrian-style palace in the Nile Delta, examine a smashed statue wearing a "coat of many colors," and uncover how a dreamer became a king...and how the system he built to save Egypt became the "Iron Furnace" that would eventually enslave his own family.In this video:- The "Invasion" that never happened- The linguistic smoking gun: Joseph vs. Salatis- The archaeological discovery of the "Man in the Coat"- How the "Dynasty of Slaves" actually began as a Dynasty of Kings🎤 Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/65ltJzPUNJtCQpKRdWZfAM?si=33nJi0JFS6SeAStfVMBg6w🍎 Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/blk-shp-bible-talk/id1859984761
