The Pharaoh associated with the story of Moses and the Israelites in the Bible is not explicitly named. The biblical narrative, found in the Book of Exodus, refers to the ruler of Egypt during Moses' time simply as "Pharaoh" without providing a specific name.
The story recounts that Moses, chosen by God, confronted the Pharaoh to demand the release of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. The Pharaoh is often referred to as the one who hardened his heart against Moses' requests, leading to a series of plagues sent by God. The most well-known of these plagues is the final one, where the firstborn sons of Egypt are killed, prompting the Pharaoh to finally allow the Israelites to leave.
While the Bible does not provide a specific name for the Pharaoh in this story, attempts to identify the historical Pharaoh associated with the Exodus remain speculative, and there is no definitive evidence supporting any particular identification. The biblical narrative is a religious and theological account, and historical details may not align precisely with secular historical records.
