What would the Hebrews in Egypt have known about God?

Answer by  CarolynOsborne (2804)

God made a covenant with Abraham. Isaac was Abraham's son and Jacob was Isaac's son. Belief in God was passed down in this lineage. Jacob's son Joseph ended up in Egypt. A famine brought the rest of the Hebrews there. This was before the covenant with Moses but the Hebrews in Egypt knew about God and His promises to Abraham.

God revealed himself to Abraham. Abraham spread this knowledge of God to his children, both orally and traditionally, circumcision. Additionally God appeared to one of Isaacs son's who became the 2nd in power over Egypt.
