Does this chapter speak of the Africans who were brought to the Americas as slaves? The 400 years thing is what made me think of it.

I am speaking specifically of verses 13-16.

Atheists - I love you, but this is probably not the best question for you to answer. Thank you anyway.

I don't think the Israelites were slaves for 400 years in Egypt.

If you have an answer, please give a Scriptural reference for it or list another specific source. Thanks!

I've just discovered that Exodus 12:40 says that the Israelites were in Egypt for 430 years. Maybe I'm not the one who needs to learn history, huh?

This is supposed to be the freeing of the Hebrew slaves from Egypt.

Gen 15:16 "In the fourth generation they shall come hither again."

If we count Abraham, then their return from Egypt occurred after seven generations: Abraham, Isaac (Gen.21:1-3), Jacob (Gen.25:19-26), Levi (Gen.35:22-23), Kohath (Ex.6:16), Amramn (Ex.6:18), and Moses (Ex.6:20).

So no, this was not fulfilled, even if we ignore the modern evidence that the pyramid builders were second only to the Pharoah in wealth and lifestyle, and certainly not slaves. (1)

ROFLMAO
Try to learn histroy!
The Israelites were slaves to Egypt 400 years!
This has nothing to do with Africa or America!
the Promised land was inhabited by

19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

The Kenites (Sons of Cain) are still with us!

No this Prophecy has not yet been fulfilled as their are three other religions whose GOD has told them the same thing.that is why there has been fighting among the tribes in that area for generations with out any resolving of the issue.
It has nothing to do with the American Slave trade.
It deals only with the ownership of a portion of the middle east

No, if I recall it's talking about the Israelites being enslaved to Egypt. That would be Moses that delivered them!

Genesis, like most of the bible, is a load of hokum. With a bit of imaginiation, some serious spin and elastic analogies, you could probably get it to "predict" anything.
Bah, Humbug.

Jacob and The Twelve Tribes Of Israel

Gen.15:13,16 Abraham age 75 Gen.12:4; Gets the Promised Land covenant to be in the 4th generation he is 2008 + 175 = 2183. Son Isaac 2108 + 180 = year 2288.
His son Jacob Gen.47:9,11; age 130 born 2168 - 2298 or tenth year of Isaac dead, they are in Rameses Egypt. Gen.47:28 2298 + 17 = year 2315 and Joseph has been govenor since age 30 to 40 plus 17 at year 2315 + 53 years = 2368 Gen.50:26; He dies and the book of Geneses ends.
Exo.6:18:23,26 [ Levi, Kohath, Amram and Moses with Aaron is generation 4 as told to Abraham in year 2083 add Exo.7:7; 12:40,41; of 430 years = year 2513 and the Slavery that began when Mosed was born 80 years ago, is over [ but they are pilgrims and strangers in Canaan and Egypt, they have a Promised Land. Num.33:38,39
Aaron dies in 40th year. Deut.1:3; 29:5; 34:7; Moses dies in 40th year 2553 age of the world. 1513 Before Jesus 1Ki.6:1 480 + 36 to Solomon dies.1Ki.11:42; is 997 before Christ. Judah kings have to 391st year is 606 before Christ and the Matt.1:1-17 Promised Land is in Babylon Captivity at time of Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel. Cyrus frees them 536 before Christ, Greece is 336 and Maccabees 164 and Rome is in Judah 62 years before Christ. 2006 years ago is 6,072 age of world and not earth.

07. Gad. 08. Asher. 09. issachar. 10. Zubulun. 11. Joseph. 12. Benamin.

Jacob get the birthright of his brother that is a twin,
Esau is fleshly, as Jacob by his spirit God defends,
Isaac loves both of them, he is to old to understand,
It’s Jacob to produce the heirs of the Promised Land.

After Ishmael dies, the eldest son of Father Abraham,
Rebecca sends Jacob to be safe in her fathers land,
He works 7 years for Laban, and 7 more and 6 then,
He is ready to go back into canaan land one again.

Jacob had a large family in Padanaram at 20 years,
He loved Rachel, but get 3 maids by tradition here,
Leah and sister, produced 9 children, 8 are sons,
Rachel and sister produced four, last is Benjamin.

As 12 tribes of Israel are born, Jacob leaves Laban,
He mets Esau in Sier land, he faces evil in Shechem,
Rachel dies at Betelhem, Joseph lost as a mere teen,
Isaac dies in Hebron at Mamre, famine’s has all lean.

So they leave for Egypt as he learns Joseph is alive,
He has 70 family members and in Egypt they survive,
Joseph is governor to the king so Egypt is Paradise,
To Joseph dies, bondage is in as baby Moses arrives.
Exo.2:1-9; Exodus Decoded series has Ahmose as Pharoah
it is correct. Acts 7:1-60 Stephen dies telling the story.
Acts 13:17-23 Paul tells the story. 2513 + 450 to Samuel in
year 2963 is correct for judges time as Saul 2949 -40 - 2989 and
David 40 is 3029 and Solomon 40 is year 3069 at 997 before Christ.
