The Sojourn of Abram into Egypt
A famine forced Abram and Sarai to leave Canaan and sojourn to Egypt. Genesis 12 verse 10 tells the story:
Now there was a famine in the land so Abram and Sarai went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.”
In front of you is a scene that was carved into cliffs overlooking the Nile at Beni Hasan, circa 1900 BCE dating to the relevant time period. It depicts Semites (possibly Israelites) in Egypt. Bearing the Egyptian title of Hyksos, a figure named Abisha - leaning over an ibex, second from right - leading his clansmen into Egypt.
