No Abraham came before Moses. Chronologically The Old Testament is:
Abraham - Issac - Jacob/Israel - 12 sons of Israel go to Egypt - Moses
Moses climbed Mount Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments from God after the Israelites had left Egypt. Abraham moved to Canaan many years before Moses, as part of God's promise to make his descendants a great nation.
The promised land of the Israelites was Canaan, the land that God had promised to Abraham and his descendants. The Israelites returned to the promised land after being led by Moses through the Exodus, where they wandered in the desert for 40 years before finally entering Canaan under the leadership of Joshua.
Abraham made a covenant with God in which Canaan was promised to the Hebrew people as an everlasting possession. This covenant plays a significant role in the history and identity of the Jewish people.
A:According to the Bible, Moses certainly led the Hebrews on a long journey out of Egypt, towards the Promised Land. The Book of Genesis says that only Abraham and Sarah journeyed into the land of the Canaanites, because Abraham was to be the ancestor of the Hebrew people.From a historical perspective, the answer is no, in both cases. Historians say the story of Abraham is clearly legendary, with no historical basis. The respected Israeli archaeologist, Israel Finkelstein says that over ninety per cent of scholars believe there was no Exodus from Egypt asdescribed in the Bible. The epic journeys of the Bible simply did not happen.
The long journey during which Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt and back to Canaan is known as the Exodus.
No, Moses was not the first king in the land of Canaan. According to religious texts, Moses was a prophet and leader who guided the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, but he did not rule as a king in Canaan. The first king in Canaan was likely Saul, who ruled around the 11th century BCE.
Abraham. Moses LEAD the descendants of Abraham to Canaan.
Abraham came with his family to Canaan (Genesis ch.12). The traditional date for this event is 1737 BCE.Moses led the Israelites towards Canaan but died before they entered the land (Deuteronomy ch.34). A few days later, Joshua brought the Israelites into Canaan (Israel). Our traditions place that event in 1272 BCE.Our traditions state that Abraham founded what we call Judaism. It remained on a voluntary basis until the Giving of the Torah in the time of Moses, when it became binding.
First off, Canaan is described as the land of Canaan in the Bible. Thus, Canaan is not a city, it is a region. Canaan is special to the Israelites for many reasons, but the primary reason is because Canaan is the land of their fathers. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Check out the books of Genesis and Exodus in the Bible. God promised the land to Abraham and Moses
It was not Moses but Joshua who lead the people to Canaan.
According to tradition, Moses was greater in prophecy (Deuteronomy ch.34), while Abraham was the greatest in pioneering the service of God. Moses led the Israelite nation, while Abraham led a smaller family and entourage. Moses lived his life outside Israel, while Abraham lived most of his life in Israel (Canaan).

That depends which migration. Abraham migrated with his Hebrew family from Ur to Harran and then to Canaan (see Genesis ch.11-12); Jacob led his Hebrew (Israelite) family, descendants of Abraham, to Egypt (Genesis ch.46); and Moses led the Israelites from Egypt towards Canaan.
Abraham was Moses forefather.
The main journey of Israelites to Canaan (from Egypt) was led by Moses and concluded by Joshua after Moses' death. Some 400 years earlier, Abraham led a much smaller group from Harran (in Mesopotamia) to Canaan (Genesis ch.12). This group consisted of just a few family members, plus entourage (ibid).
