"God is always specific
Read Gen 15...they would enter the land in the 4th generation
Not the third..not the 5th...the fourth... "

The Fourth generation seems specific enough. Question, who is the first? I think that the children of Israel entered the promised land around Salmon, because he married Rachab. He is the tenth generation from Abraham.

Read the word..it is the fourth generation after they are enslaved..did you think God does not know what he is talking about?

Gen 15:14   And also that nation,*** whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance. ***
  
  Gen 15:15   And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
  
  Gen 15:16  ** But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites [is] not yet full. **
