Here's the thing: Egyptians seemed pretty chill and content to just lounge around the Nile. Granted Ramses 2 had impressive conquests abroad, but on balance the Egyptians were not a war-exporting nation. They seemed a perfectly content civilization for a very long time, to espouse a philosophy of: "Don't mess with us, so we won't have to mess with you." Live and let live, you can say.

Then why did they apparently go against their own chillaxed values by enslaving the Israelites, and what were those Jews doing and getting into that so pissed off their normally docile Egyptian hosts?

I thought the prevailing view among historians was that the whole Jewish Captivity thing was complete fiction?

It seems most likely something happened under Rammeses II reign. He was in charge for 67 years, longer than any Egyptian ruler since Pepi II, which would explain why the entire time the Jews were there they referred to him only as "Pharaoh." It simply never occurred to them there might be another pharaoh, hence no need to actually name the pharaoh they were dealing with.

Rammeses II's first son died mysteriously, which of consistent with the story of Exodus. Although Egyptians did not keep many slaves, they did demand tribute from nearby cities and nomadic tribes. Rammeses II's 13th son Merneptah records defeating the Hebrews in battles, although in the hieroglyphys that record this the Hebrews are listed as a people, not a country like the other people Egyptians conquered. In the same writing for example Merneptah claims to have defeated the Canaanites, but "Canaan" is identified as a geographic location whereas Jews do not have that glyph proceeding their name, suggesting that they may have actually been "wandering" (i.e. nomadic) in the desert at that time, which would again place the exodus as having occurred under Merneptah's father.

There are other little details that give Exodus a veneer of authenticity. For example Egyptians did use straw to make bricks. Exodus gets this right. There are also snake charmers in Egypt today who can hold a cobra and make it stand rigid like a staff, which explains why no one was impressed when Moses did it.

Herodotus dwelt on one or two coffins with names of particular interest, he thought. One coffin containing 4, 000+ years-old remains bore a name that intrigued him greatly because it happened also to be the name of a certain Hellenistic deity. He wondered whether the Greeks had not mythologized the founding of their civilization by deifying the real life exploits of Egyptian kings and claiming their works for Greek sky fairies.

Egypt

The reliability of Herodotus's writing about Egypt is sometimes criticized.[56][m] Alan B. Lloyd argues that, as a historical document, the writings of Herodotus are seriously defective, and that he was working from "inadequate sources".[50] Nielsen writes: "Though we cannot entirely rule out the possibility of Herodotus having been in Egypt, it must be said that his narrative bears little witness to it."[51] German historian Detlev Fehling questions whether Herodotus ever traveled up the Nile River, and considers doubtful almost everything that he says about Egypt and Ethiopia.[68][52] Fehling states that "there is not the slightest bit of history behind the whole story" about the claim of Herodotus that Pharaoh Sesostris campaigned in Europe, and that he left a colony in Colchia.[54][53][n]

However, a recent discovery of a baris [described in The Histories] during an excavation of the sunken Egyptian port city of Thonis-Heracleiond lends credence to Herodotus's travels and storytelling.[69]

Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh

Heed

To his every word, live in fear

Faith

Of the unknown one, the deliverer

Wait

Something must be done, four hundred years

So let it be written

So let it be done

I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written

So let it be done

To kill the first born pharaoh son

I'm creeping death

Now

Let my people go, land of goshen

Go

I will be with thee, bush of fire

Blood

Running red and strong, down the Nile

Plague

Darkness three days long, hail to fire

So let it be written

So let it be done

I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written

So let it be done

To kill the first born pharaoh son

I'm creeping death

Die by my hand

I creep across the land

Killing first born man

Die by my hand

I creep across the land

Killing first born man

I

Rule the midnight air, the destroyer

Born

I shall soon be there, deadly mass

I

Creep the steps and floor, final darkness

Blood

Lamb's blood, painted door, I shall pass

So let it be written

So let it be done

I'm sent here by the chosen one

So let it be written

So let it be done

To kill the first born pharaoh son

I'm creeping death

that reminds me of a story from japan from a few years ago. they found very old stones with writing carved into them that said "do not build your homes below this point"

but it was more than just mice who were after the grain in those granaries:

"do not let a woman who decorates her buttocks deceive you, by wily coaxing, for she is after your granary."

--Hesiod 700BC.
