It started with Joseph, Abraham's great grandson. Joseph's brothers were jealous of their fathers love for Joseph, so they sold him to slave traders heading to Egypt. Through hard times, Joseph worked his way up from slave to 2nd in charge of Egypt! His family that lived in Canaan had a famine and his father sent Joseph's brothers up to Egypt to get food. When they found out that Joseph was alive and said they were sorry, they went back to Canaan and brought their families with them, along with Jacob, to Egypt. Soon, that would lead to the deliverance of God's people.
