Jacob sons had travelled to Egypt in search of food. Their decision was prompted by the famine in Israel. However, as fate will do it, they met Joseph their brother: the one they sold to the Amalekites some years back. This time as a king not as a slave- He was the seating prime minister of the great Egyptian empire. Through Joseph request they all came to Egypt until the famine was over. History records shows that the Israelites spent over 400 years in their new found homeland, Goshen.
