Kevin Rider - Gary, something to consider on the 400 years of slavery: According to the earlier Septuagint translation of the Bible the text reads "And the sojourning of the children of Israel, while they sojourned in the land of Egypt 'and the land of Chanaan,' four hundred and thirty years." Chanaan or Canaan had been left out of the later Masoretic text which our modern Bibles are translated from. There is a good well done short 12 minute youtube video 'How Long Were the Israelites in Egypt?NathanH83 that does an excellent job explaining this.
Paul says in Galatians 3:16-17 "Now to 'Abram' and his offspring were the 'promises made'...And this I say, that 'the law', which 'was 430 years later'..." Galatians 3:16,17. When you do the simple math you see that putting all the 400 years, that God patiently waited, in Egypt doesn't line-up with what Paul is saying here.
The scriptures below cover the events with the years of these time periods that add up to the 430 years Paul wrote of in Galatians 3:16-17 between 'the promises given to Abram to when the law or ten commandments was given to Moses:
- God gives Abram the promises when God calls him at 75 years old in Gen 12:4
- (*25 years pass) and Isaac is born to Abram when he is 100 in Gen 21:5
- "Isaac was 60 years old when she bore them." (Esau and Jacob) Gen 25:26 (*60 years pass)
- Jacob and his family go to live with Joseph in Egypt - Jacob tells Pharaoh that he’s lived '130 years' in Gen 47:9 (*130 years have past)
(When Joseph’s family comes to live with him in Egypt 'Joseph is 39'. - We know this because Gen 41:46 tells us Joseph is 30 when he starts to collect grain for Pharaoh and then he gathered grain for the 7 plentiful years, and then Gen 45:6 tells us Joseph's family comes to live with him in year 2 of the famine 30 + 7 + 2 = 39 years of age)
- Joseph is 39 when his family comes to live with him in Egypt and he dies at age 110 in Gen 50:26 (*71 years have past) - 110 - 39 = 71 years Joseph lived with his family before he died
(After Joseph dies the Israelites continue to multiply and become slaves in Egypt sometime during this period of time during the 430 years Paul wrote of in Galatians 3:16, 17.)
- Moses is born in Egypt and receives the law from God at Mt Sinai when he was 80 years old - Exodus 7:7. (*80 years pass)
(When these years are added up * 25 + 60 + 130 + 71 + 80 = 366 are accounted for of the 430 years.) This leaves '64 years' (430 - 366 = 64) of the 430 years that Paul speaks of in Galatians 3:16, 17. *So (the period of time the Israelites became slaves in Egypt was sometime during this 64 year period) before Moses was born (*and continued for 80 years) until God delivered them through Moses and he received the law.
(*So the maximum amount of time the Israelites were slaves in Egypt 'was less than 144 years'. 64 + 80 + 144)
Other scripture verses speak of '400 years' (different starting point) - from when 'the mistreatment began to the law' - afflicted them, and humble them 400 years -
Genesis 15:13, 16 says “And it was said to Abram, Thou shalt know that thy seed shall be 'a sojourner in a land not their own', and they shall enslave them, 'and afflict them, and humble them 400 years'. And in the 4th generation they shall return hither.”
- Into the first 30 years of the 430 since God gave Abram the promises - the 400 years of mistreatment began: The first 25 years from the promise given to Abram - Isaac is born and 5 years later Isaac is weaned 25 + 5 = 30 then Ishmael mocks Isaac in Gen 21:9 and is the start of when Abraham's descendants are 'afflicted and humbled'. - Paul says in Galatians 4:29 “ of…(Ishmael) he who was born according to the flesh then 'persecuted' him who was born according to the Spirit (Isaac)…”.
Josephus the Jewish historian also confirms the sojourning took place in Canaan and Egypt during these 430 years:
(Half of this 430 year period - 215 years was spent in Canaan and the other half 215 years was spent in Egypt) - Flavius Josephus quoted in The Antiquities of the Jews, Book 2 15.2 “…430 years after our forefather Abraham came into Canaan, but 215 years only after Jacob removed into Egypt.”

Pleasantly surprised. I thought it was good.

The mention of Joshua as Moses' assistant is not Numbers 24:13, but Numbers 11:28
