One thought:
The Jews moved to Egypt about 640 years after the flood, though they were not 'slaves' immediately. They were 'sojourners'(temporary residents) until the death of Joseph, working for Pharaoh during that time.
History: It is believed by many that the flood occurred in 2370 BCE.
A covenant was made with Abraham in 1943 BCE, when he entered Canaan and Israel's 400 year 'affliction' began when Ishmael (son of the Egyptian, Hagar)started bullying Isaac(Genesis 21:8-10)during Israel's 215 years 'sojourning' in Canaan.
Joseph, son of Israel(Jacob), was sold into Egyptian slavery as a young man, then
Jacob and his family(the first Israelites/Jews) moved to Egypt, as 'alien residents', during Joseph's time around 1728 BCE(Genesis 47:1-12), eventually becoming 'slaves' after the death of Joseph at 110 (Genesis 50:17)when a new Pharaoh took over (Exodus 1:8-10). They left with Moses in 1513 BCE.
