96:2.1 The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semites Semites] of the East were well-[[organized]] and well-led horsemen who [[invaded]] the eastern regions of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertile_Crescent fertile crescent] and there united with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylonia Babylonians]. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaldea Chaldeans] near [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ur Ur] were among the most advanced of the eastern [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semites Semites]. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenicia Phoenicians] were a superior and well-[[organized]] group of mixed Semites who held the western section of [[Palestine]], along the [[Mediterranean]] coast. Racially the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semites Semites] were among the most blended of [[Urantia]] peoples, containing hereditary [[factors]] from almost all of the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_78#78:1._RACIAL_AND_CULTURAL_DISTRIBUTION nine world races].

96:2.2 Again and again the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabia Arabian] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semites Semites] fought their way into the northern [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promised_land Promised Land], the land that "flowed with milk and honey,"[https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Exodus#Chapter_.3] but just as often were they ejected by the better-organized and more highly civilized northern Semites and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hittites Hittites]. Later, during an unusually severe [[famine]], these roving [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin Bedouins] entered Egypt in large numbers as contract laborers on the Egyptian public works, only to find themselves undergoing the bitter [[experience]] of [[enslavement]] at the hard daily toil of the common and downtrodden laborers of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt Nile valley].

96:2.3 It was only after the days of [[Machiventa]] [[Melchizedek]] and [[Abraham]] that certain [[tribes]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semites Semites], because of their peculiar religious [[beliefs]], were called the children of [[Israel]] and later on [[Hebrews]], Jews, and the "[[chosen people]]." [[Abraham]] was not the [[racial]] [[father]] of all the [[Hebrews]]; he was not even the progenitor of all the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin Bedouin] Semites who were held captive in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Egyptian_Captivity Egypt]. True, his [[offspring]], coming up out of Egypt, did form the [[nucleus]] of the later Jewish people, but the vast [[majority]] of the men and women who became incorporated into the [[clans]] of [[Israel]] had never [[sojourned]] in Egypt. They were merely fellow [[nomads]] who chose to follow the [[leadership]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moses Moses] as the [[children]] of [[Abraham]] and their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semite Semite] associates from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Exodus Egypt] [[journeyed]] through northern [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabia Arabia].

96:2.4 The [[Melchizedek]] teaching concerning [[El Elyon]], the [[Most High]], and the [[covenant]] of [[divine]] [[favor]] through [[faith]], had been largely forgotten by the time of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharaoh_of_the_Exodus Egyptian enslavement] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semite Semite] peoples who were shortly to form the [[Hebrew]] [[nation]]. But throughout this period of captivity these Arabian [[nomads]] maintained a lingering [[traditional]] [[belief]] in [[Yahweh]] as their [[racial]] [[deity]].

96:2.5 [[Yahweh]] was [[worshiped]] by more than one hundred separate [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabian_tribes Arabian tribes], and except for the tinge of the [[El Elyon]] [[concept]] of [[Melchizedek]] which persisted among the more educated classes of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt Egypt], including the mixed [[Hebrew]] and Egyptian stocks, the [[religion]] of the rank and file of the Hebrew captive [[slaves]] was a [[modified]] version of the old [[Yahweh]] [[ritual]] of [[magic]] and [[sacrifice]].
