IF MOSES EXISTED AND THE EXODUS REALLY TOOK PLACE, SURELY WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO KNOW THE ACTUAL DATE OF THE GREAT EVENT. One Of The Key Arguments That The Exodus And The Origins Of The Israelites Is False Has To Do With Dating The Exodus. The Bible clearly indicates when the Exodus happened but not the exact hour of the day of the month of the year.

From the information available that was given to Moses, the date for the Exodus appears to have been 1446 BC. This is taken from typology and based upon the year of Jesus’ death. The internal witness of the Bible is very accurate historically; the reason why its prophecies come to pass.
As it happens, in an article in Bible and Spade entitled “Recent Research on the Date and Setting of the Exodus” written by Bryant G. Wood PhD states:
Chronological data in the Bible demonstrate that the Exodus took place in 1446 BC. This is supported by evidence from Jericho, Ai and Hazor showing that all three sites were burned by fire at the end of the 15th century BC, the time frame for the Conquest based on a 1446 BC Exodus. At Jericho, not only is there evidence for destruction by fire, but also that the destruction took place just after the harvest, the city walls fell, the siege of the city was short, and the city was not plundered, as the Bible records . Our excavations at Khirbet el-Maqatir have demonstrated that it meets all of the Biblical requirements to be identified as Joshua’s Ai, including destruction by fire. At Hazor, the burning of Stratum XV/2 and the destruction of temples give evidence of the Israelite conquest of the city. (Recent Research on the Date and Setting of the Exodus)
Based upon what my investigations into the historical accuracy of the Bible have uncovered and what Bryant G. Wood has uncovered from archaeological evidence, the date for the Exodus appears to be sometime in 1446 BC.
