Dedicating this land, in covenant with God, for the advancement of Christianity.

How long were the Israelites enslaved in Egypt again?
Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.
Exodus 12:29-42.

They were slaves for over 100 years, but less than 200. The longer time frame begins from when God commanded Abraham to sojurn.
Five years after his birth, Sarah weaned Isaac, and the young lad likely participated in his first sacrificial oblation during Abraham’s feast.
This feast was exactly 400 years before the exodus to the very day.
Nice. ThanQ for posting that.
We were the original Euro-trash, kicked out before the rush.
The good news was that land prices were low when they arrived.
