:::::::"Bible and Spade" says "most contemporary Biblical scholars deny the historicity of God’s miraculous deliverance of Israel from Egypt as documented in the Old Testament," which is pretty much what our article says. The article on Exodus from the New Oxford Annotated Bible says that "some of the traditions" behind the Book of Exodus are ancient "and may well reflect authentic historical memory" - again, pretty much what our article says (and implying, incidentally, that Exodus contains a great deal that's not ancient and authentic, which again is what our article says). Ellinson's book is from the early 1980s - recent sources, as quoted in our article, say that the debate has moved on. (Read the book by Moore and Kelle which I've added to the bibliography). Helen Fields isn't a reliable source.
