Chapter 12 - The Hyksos Invade Egypt
There was one substantive change, noting that the Hyksos didn't suddenly invade...they gradually settled in large in numbers in Egypt, and then rose up and took over.
There is also some non-substantive wording changes.
Paragraph 3/3-4
(Paragraph 3 is split into two paragraphs in the revised version)
Original:
...Fierce enemies were getting ready to charge down on the Egyptians from the North.Revised:
...Fierce enemies were getting ready to attack Pharoah and take away his Throne.
Paragraph 4/5
Original:
...They had been wandering around Canaan for several years. Now they were ready to move to a new country. And the country they chose was Egypt.
The Hyksos came charging down from Canaan into Egypt. Egypt's weak army wasn't ready for such a vicious attack!Revised:
...They had been wandering around Canaan for several years. A few at a time, the Hyksos had moved down into Egypt and settled. Now a huge number of Hyksos lived in the Nile Delta. There were so many Hyksos they had an entire city all their own.
Now they were ready to rule their new home. They picked up weapons and charged down to attack the pharaoh and his army.
