The Exodus Decoded is a 2006 English-language Documentary motion picture developed by Simcha Jacobovici and James Cameron written and directed by Simcha Jacobovici and produced by James Cameron. The motion picture originally aired on The History Channel. Exodus Decoded is a documentary created by Jewish Canadian filmmaker Simcha Jacobovici, in which new evidence in favor of the historicity of the Biblical Exodus is explored. It is partially narrated by film director James Cameron. Jacobovici suggests that the Exodus took place around 1500 BCE during the reign of pharaoh Ahmose I, and coincided with the eruption of Santorini that most scholars believe ended the Minoan civilization. In the documentary, the plagues that ravished Egypt in the Bible are explained as having resulted from that volcanic eruption, and a related collapse in the Nile river delta. While much of Jacobovici's archaeological evidence for the Exodus comes from Egypt, a surprising quantity comes from Mycenae, on mainland Greece. Written by Anonymous. The exodus decoded stars Uzi Avner in the lead role along with an ensemble cast including Manfred Bietak, John Bimson, James Cameron, Philip Davies, William G. Dever and Christos Doumas. The movie has a running time of 92 minutes. It was released on 16th April 2006. Distribution rights for the movie were acquired by A&E Television Networks.
