IT TURNED OUT TO BE
No it was as it turned out, Canaan then, he had left Haran where his father died, when the LORD God told him to move on, when he got there, there was a famine.
Gen.12:4,8-11; He went into Egypt. Gen.13:1,2;
Then he came back. Gen.15:13,16;
He gets the promise for this land to belong to his heirs and at age 75, he has no offsprings. His offspring Isaac is heir, and Jacob his son is heir so that when they have been in Canaan 215 years. This will come to be the Promised Land.
Gen.47:9,11,28; Rameses Egypt is their place of dwelling for the next 215 years, as 70 souls go into Egypt and Exo.12:40.41 [ 430 ];
From Abraham age 75 in 2083 after Adam, it is 430 years when they with Moses age 80 Exo.7:7; and half million heirs do exit Egypt to be 40 years in the wilderness before they come into the Promised Land. Deut.1:3; 29:5; 34:7; Moses dies and Joshua takes over Josh.5:6,10,14; and the 40 years has ended.
