The Move to Egypt

46 Later, Israel began his journey, taking along everything that he owned, and arrived at Beer-sheba, where he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac. ² God spoke to Israel through night visions, addressing him, “Jacob! Jacob!”

“Here I am!” Jacob^[a] replied.

³ “I’m God, your father’s God. Don’t be afraid to move down to Egypt, because I’m going to turn you into a mighty nation there.
