Egyptians
Ancient Egypt plays a crucial role in biblical history. Joseph rose to power there, and his family settled in Goshen. After centuries, the Israelites were enslaved until Moses led them out in the Exodus.
Egypt continued to influence Israelite history as both a refuge and a threat. The prophets often warned against relying on Egyptian power rather than God.
