Description

Joseph’s Journey from Canaan to Egypt

Joseph’s story takes a heartbreaking turn when his father, Jacob, sends him to check on his older brothers and the family’s sheep. Joseph travels north from Hebron toward Shechem and eventually finds his brothers at Dothan.
Instead of welcoming him, Joseph’s brothers decide to get rid of him. They sell him to a group of traveling merchants heading toward Egypt. The map shows the route Joseph may have taken from Hebron to Dothan, along with a possible route used by Midianite merchants traveling from the region of Gilead toward Egypt.
From Dothan, Joseph was taken south toward Egypt. The journey would have carried him across a large stretch of land and eventually into the Nile River Delta. There, Joseph was sold to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, beginning a completely new chapter of his life.
The geography helps put Joseph’s story into perspective. Dothan was north of Hebron, while Egypt was far to the southwest. The map also places Gilead, Shechem, the Jordan River, the Negev, the Sinai Peninsula, and the Nile River Delta in relation to Joseph’s journey.
What began as a simple trip to find his brothers became a journey that took Joseph far from home. Yet his time in Egypt would eventually lead to a remarkable change in his position—and would play a major role in the story of Jacob’s entire family.
