Israel captured the Sinai Peninsula and the Gaza strip during the 1967 war.
The Sinai Peninsula was reverted to Egypt under the 1979 peace treaty.
Israel evacuated its settlers and military from the Gaza strip in 2005, and handed
it over to the PLO. The residents of the strip trashed the economic infrastructure
inherited from Israeli settlements, and Hamas expelled the PLO.
There is presently (early 2011) no 'former' Egyptian territory occupied by Israel.

Did Israel exist in the time of Jesus?
No. Israel ceased to exist as a nation after its destruction by the Assyrians in 722 BCE. The territory formerly occupied by the Israelites became the Assyrian province of Samaria, although by the time of Jesus it was under Roman control. A new nation of Israel was formed in 1949, covering much of the former lands of Israel, and also the former lands of Judah and some other territory.

When did the Egyptian army arrive in Israel?
It depends on the war. The Egyptian Army has crossed into what is now Israel during the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9 (also known as the Israeli Independence War, the Nakba, and the second half of the Jewish-Arab Engagement). The Egyptian Army crossed into de jure Israel on the 15 May 1948 and quickly overran much of the Negev Desert. Israel eventually expelled Egypt from most of the former British Mandate of Palestine with the exception of the Gaza Strip by November 1948. As the Arab Israeli Wars of 1956 (also known as the Suez Crisis and the Tripartite War) and 1967 (also known as the Six Day War) were both started by Israeli advances into Egyptian territory based on the threat of oncoming war, the Egyptian army did not arrive in Israel during either conflict. The Egyptian Army also successfully crossed the border into the Israeli-Occupied Sinai Peninsula during the Arab-Israeli War of 1973 (also known as the Yom Kippur War, the October War, and the Ramadan War). The Egyptian Army crossed into Egyptian territory under legal Israeli Occupation (see UNSC Resolution 242) on 6 October 1973. Israel contained the Egyptian offensive to the east bank of the Suez Canal and Egyptian troops never marched on Israel proper. Since 1979, Egypt and Israel have not gone to war, but leading Israeli and Egyptian generals will visit each other to coordinate defenses against the Palestinian Terrorism the comes out of the Gaza Strip. Some of these meetings occur within Israeli territory, although their times and dates are relatively obscure and quiet for reasons of political sensitivity.

Is Judah in Israel?
The former kingdom of Judah is now part of modern Israel and partly in the Palestinian Territory. Judah was a small inland enclave surrounding the city of Jerusalem and quite separate from the kingdom of Israel to its north. Biblical tradition holds that in former times, Judah and Israel had formed a United Monarchy, also known as Israel, but noted archaeologists such as Israel Finkelstein say that this was never the case. Judah and Israel were always separate and had their own separate culture, pottery styles and even their own separate dialects of the Hebrew language.
