According to the Torah, Joseph, with the Pharaoh's permission, brought his
people into Egypt. They were starving. Joseph had control of the grain
storage and was a good weather forecaster! Later, there arose a Pharaoh who
"knew not Joseph" and the Children of Israel became slaves in Egypt. The
Egyptians were afraid of them because of their over-population.
I would be interested in knowing why you think these Jews were
Egyptians. ?? Also, do you think that Americans, also have no long, long
claim to the land in America?.......as this land was not occupied either.
