Biblical Egypt

Joseph He was loved most by his parents His parents made him a coat of many colors His brothers disliked him so much that they sold him into slavery The people that bought him took him to Egypt There he worked to become a vizier to pharaoh

The Israelites They became slaves in Egypt They got there when Joseph’s family came to Egypt. Then a different pharaoh took over and thought the Israelites became too large in number. So he made them slaves. Moses led to Joseph

Moses Moses lived in Egypt Moses’ mother saved him from the pharaoh’s soldiers When Moses got older he led the slaves out of Egypt

Mary, Joseph, and Jesus Mary and Joseph traveled to Bethlehem Jesus was born When the wise men saw King Herod on the way to see Jesus Herod told them to bring back Jesus so he could kill him The wise men didn’t bring Jesus back Herod was so angry he decided to kill all the baby boys so he could kill Jesus God told Joseph to flee to Egypt Joseph and his family fled to Egypt

Writing

Type of Writing It was called hieroglyphics Hieroglyphics are pictures used as writing in Ancient Egypt

Rosetta Stone A stone that is called the key to unlocking the history of Egypt It was found by the French in 1799 It is called the key to unlocking the history because the words on it are written in three different languages-one that we can understand another is hieroglyphics
