Egypt - 7 yrs of Plenty (jan 2, 1737 BC – jan 1, 1730 BC)
Description:
(Genesis 41:46-49) Joseph was 30 years old when he stood before Pharʹaoh king of Egypt. Then Joseph went out from before Pharʹaoh and traveled throughout all the land of Egypt. 47 And during the seven years of abundance, the land went on producing plentifully. 48 And he kept collecting all the food of the seven years from the land of Egypt, and he would stockpile the food in the cities. In each city he would store the food from the fields around it. 49 Joseph continued stockpiling grain in very great quantity, like the sand of the sea, until finally they gave up measuring it because it could not be measured.Added to timeline:
