¢Here the Mosaic era is predicted
lGen 15:13-16 (NIV) Then the LORD said to him, "Know for certain that
your descendants will be strangers in a country not
their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated
four hundred years. 14 But I will punish the nation they
serve as slaves, and afterward they will come
out with great possessions. 15 You, however, will go to
your fathers in peace and be buried at a good old
age. 16 In the fourth generation your descendants
will come back here, for the sin of the Amorites has
not yet reached its full measure."
