Exodus chapter 6
#2
on your question on 60000 and is it possible, it is absolutely possible.  Remember 70 went into captivity, and they were in captivity for 400 years (so eventhough, as Ex 6 outlines, it was only 3 generations from Levi to Moses, that doesn't mean that all other family trees were 3 generations, some might of had 8 or more generations).  So even a modest birth rate can cause a group to go from 70 to 60000 over 400 years.

BTW, not sure where you're getting 60000 - I thought it was significantly more (million+, but even a million is absolutely doable starting from 70 over a 400 year span, remember "growth is an exponential function!!!)
