Those stories which were written later about the early prophets I definitely give a doubt. I am not saying that those plagues did not happen. They were natural causes and believed to a punishment by God as people had no explanation. I don't believe that plagues happened so quickly one after another and at a time when some Hebrews moved out of Egypt. I doubt that every Hebrew was living in Egypt. They lived wherever they wanted. They eyewitnesses might have used a different name. I don't know about that. There is no evidence of the Exodus and there is no evidence of Jesus. The historian try desperately to proof his existance but they can't. Non-Jews wrote the New Testament and other books as well. They can make up anything. They just copied and put in their own ideas and interpretation, too. Someone wrote a new Moses story with less magic. He tried to make it more realistic. He knew the Egyptian culture of the past. He said it would have been impossible for a Hebrew slave or anyone not Egyptian to make a deal with the Pharao. He could not even enter the palace without difficulties. He made Moses half Egyptian. He invented an Egyptian Princess who fooled around with a Hebrew man. Her son was then accepted as an Egyptian because of his mother.
