The Book of Genesis concludes with the death of Joseph, which is traditionally dated to around 1800 BCE. The Book of Exodus begins with the Israelites in Egypt, where they have been enslaved. While the exact timeline is debated, it is generally believed that there are about 400 years between the end of Genesis and the beginning of Exodus, as the Israelites are thought to have entered Egypt during a time of famine and remained there until the Exodus.

How many years between Genesis chapter15 and Exodus chapter 12?

A.Using Bishop Ussher's dating, the confirmation of the Abrahamic Covenant in Genesis 15 vv.5 & 18 was in 1876BC, and the exodus of the enslaved Hebrews from Egypt in Exodus 15 was in 1446BC, thus making it a period of 430 years. However, Genesis 15:13 also says Abraham's descendents would be enslaved for 400 years:-Gen 15:12-13 (HCSB)Gen 15 (v.12) As the sun was setting, a deep sleep fell on Abram, and suddenly great terror and darkness descended on him. Gen 15 (v.13) Then the LORD said to Abram [later renamed Abraham], "Know this for certain: Your offspring will be foreigners in a land that does not belong to them; they will be enslaved and oppressed 400 years.This difference of 30 years between 400 and 430 years just means that they were not enslaved for the first 30 years.

What years does the bible story Genesis span genesis cover?

Simplistically speaking it covers the time from creation (unknown event/ refer to science) to the time of moses birth which occurs in the 2nd bible chapter Exodus. Moses birth regarded between 1500 -1300BC. The time span Genesis was written is of course under much debate. Judging by style of prose, some say from 1200 - 900BC, while others put it from the date of Creation in 4004BC (Ussher) to the Exodus in 1446BC (Ussher).

Which book states that Israel was in Egypt 430 years?

Any book that makes that statement is in error. A careful reading of Genesis and Exodus details the time scale.Answer:The line is Exodus 12:40, so the book is Exodus.Answer:The Torah-sages (quoted in Rashi commentary) have explained that the 430 years are calculated from the Covenant Between the Parts (Genesis ch.15), since at that time God foretold the Egyptian slavery. In addition, Egypt had garrisons in Canaan during the time of the Forefathers, so in a sense it's literally meant that even they were under Egyptian authority.The 400 years foretold in Genesis ch.15 are calculated from the birth of Isaac, while the actual Egyptian exile was 210 years; and the slavery itself was slightly over 100 years.
