Israelites in Canaan & Egypt (jan 1, 1876 BC – jan 1, 1446 BC)
Description:
Exodus 12:40 (LXX) And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt and the land of Chanaan, four hundred and thirty years.
Galatians 3:16 Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, “And to your offspring,” who is Christ. 17 This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.
215 years from Abraham receiving the promise and living in Canaan & 215 years living in Egypt
