- The Patriarch Abraham made a covenant with God promising that if he and his family left Ur and traveled to Canaan, that one day, it would be his descendants Promised Land. Years later, a famine struck in Canaan. Abraham’s grandson, Jacob and his family fled to Egypt. Over time, the Israelites grew more numerous and the Pharaoh became mistrustful of them and their Monotheistic religion, causing the Pharaoh to enslave them.
