When we last saw Joseph, he was busy settling the family in Goshen.

These next few weeks, we will examine how the “good life” in suburban Goshen devolved into four hundred years of slavery for the Israelite people.

According to the opening paragraphs of Exodus, a “new king arose, who did not know Joseph”. That king’s program was called MEGA, “Make Egypt Grain Again”.  (Sorry…I couldn’t resist)

First order of business was to deal with the “Israelite Problem” (history’s first recorded instance of “antisemitism”).

Later, in our studies, we will meet history’s first feminists: two midwives, a determined Jewish (Israelite) mother, history's first big sister, an Egyptian princess fluent in Hebrew, and much, much more.

We will meet Moses, Pharoah, “I shall be who I shall be”, Aaron, a failed Egyptian board of advisors, to name a few.

And we will join in celebrating “Pesach Mitzrayim”, Passover in Egypt, which was markedly different from “Pesach CAI”, Passover in Caldwell.
