Between Abraham and Moses, the land of Canaan saw the establishment of the Israelite patriarchs, including Isaac and Jacob, who was later named Israel. Jacob's descendants, the twelve tribes of Israel, settled in Egypt due to famine, leading to their eventual enslavement. Over time, God raised Moses to lead the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt and back to Canaan, fulfilling the promises made to Abraham regarding the land and his descendants. This period encompasses significant developments in the identity and faith of the Israelite people.
The statement "The people first had a polytheistic religion that involved worshiping many gods" does not accurately describe the story of the ancient Hebrews. The ancient Hebrews were monotheistic, believing in one God. The statement "The promises that God made to Abraham" is a correct description of the story of the ancient Hebrews, as God made a covenant with Abraham promising him land and descendants.
No promise is made to Abraham at this point. He is only urged to "Go to the land that I [the LORD] will show you." It is only after arriving in Canaan that God makes the Promises of Abraham fathering many nations.

He was known as "The Father Of The Hebrews" for a reason. Abram was the first one to believe in one true god, and god promised him to have a giant family from his descendents, changing his name to Abraham, meaning "father of many nations".

Answer 1Abraham shaped the Hebrew history by being told by God himself, or believed that He did tell him, to leave his own home, and settle into Canaan where his descendants-the Hebrews-- finally settled also, but later, some of the Hebrews moved to Egypt, (they moved to other parts of the world later). However, with the growth of the Hebrews, the pharaoh of Egypt, was worried the Hebrews soon might take over, and to stop that from happening, he made the Hebrews slaves. A man named Moses appeared among the Hebrews in Egypt. God told Moses to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt. Moses then went to the pharaoh and demanded that the Hebrews should be free. The pharaoh refused. Soon afterward a series of plagues (disasters) struck Egypt and the pharaoh then agreed to let the Hebrews free.Christian answer:They both spread the word about God and Jesus.Jewish answer:Abraham founded Judaism.Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt and received the Torah from God.
