Joseph, the younger son of Abraham.His brothers became jealous and so sold him to slave traders, who in turn sold him to Potipher a rich merchant. Joseph found favour in his masters eyes and was made chief over all his master had. He fortold the seven years famine that would come to the land and so prepared for such an event. During this famine Joseph met up again with his family, forgave his brothers and was once again reunited with his father and mother.

Why did the Israelites leave Canaan and go to Egypt?
There was a drought and famine in Jacob's time, so the Israelites went to Egypt because "there was grain in Egypt". Joseph, Jacob's lost son, as vizier in Egypt, has wisely built storehouses for Egypt's grain during the years of plenty to give out in the years of famine. Jacob's other sons came and requested some of the grain that Joseph had saved. When Joseph reunited with his brothers, he eventually had the rest of the family brought down to Egypt, to protect them from the famine. They stayed in the Land of Goshen as guests of the Pharaoh. Later on, in Moses' time, the Israelites had to leave Egypt and go to Canaan in order to escape their enslavement.
How many exiles went down to Egypt with Jacob in 1700 BC?
When Jacob went to Egypt it was because of a famine in the land of Canaan where he and his family lived. They were not exiles. Jacob had twelve sons, one of which was Joseph who was sold into slavery by his brothers and he was taken to Egypt. He was favored by God over time and became the second in Command under Pharaoh in Egypt. Jacob sent his other sons to Egypt to buy wheat so they would not starve. Eventually Joseph was made known to his brothers and so Joseph invited his father, Jacob and his brothers and their families to come to Egypt and live. Jacob and his sons and their families in total who went to Egypt were seventy persons.
