The biblical narrative suggests that the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt for several centuries, with the most notable account occurring during the reign of Pharaoh during the time of Moses, around the 13th century BCE. According to the Book of Exodus, they were forced to work on various construction projects, including building cities and monuments for the Pharaoh. This period of enslavement is traditionally dated to have lasted until the Exodus, when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt. However, historical evidence for this narrative is debated among scholars.
