Thematic Bible: The district in egypt which was inhabited by the israelites


Thematic Bible



So the Egyptians assigned taskmasters over the Israelites to oppress them with forced labor. They built Pithom and Rameses as supply cities for Pharaoh.

The Israelites traveled from Rameses to Succoth, about 600,000 soldiers on foot, besides their families.

The Israelites departed from Rameses and camped at Succoth.

Then Joseph settled his father and brothers in the land of Egypt and gave them property in the best part of the land, the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

They departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the month. On the day after the Passover the Israelites went out triumphantly in the sight of all the Egyptians.
