OK?

As you see it, define hate in your own words.
Please do not use the term "hate" as a part of your definition.

Arab tribes date back to around 500 CE, according to Arab historians, about 2,500 years *after* Abraham. Arabs as a people are not ancient.
Arabs have been right where they are from the beginning,.,.,.,., right alongside the Jews.
with the Jews.
Joseph convinces his fellow Jews to pack up and move to Egypt were the Pharaoh promises them grazing land.

The Egyptian Pharaoh gave the Jews total control of Egypt.

All the Jewish people left Cannon and moved to Egypt where they ruled for a long time, until--- see the beginning of the Exodus below ---
(Gen 42:6 KJV) And Joseph was the governor over the land, and he it was that sold to all the people of the land:
(Gen 42:25 KJV) Then Joseph commanded to fill their sacks with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way:
(Gen 45:20 KJV) Also regard not your stuff; for the good of all the land of Egypt is yours.
(Gen 45:21 KJV) And the children of Israel did so: and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.


(Gen 47:1 KJV) Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father [ISRAEL] and my brethren, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen. (in Egypt}

(Gen 47:3 KJV) And Pharaoh said unto his brethren, What is your occupation? And they said unto Pharaoh, Thy servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.

(Gen 47:4 KJV) They said moreover unto Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for thy servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray thee, let thy servants dwell in the land of Goshen.


(Gen 47:5 KJV) And Pharaoh spake unto Joseph, saying, Thy father [ISRAEL] and thy brethren are come unto thee:

(Gen 47:6 KJV) The land of Egypt is before thee; in the best of the land make thy father and brethren to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if thou knowest any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.

(Gen 47:11 KJV) And Joseph placed his father [ISRAEL] and his brethren, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.


Later on, all the Egyptian Jews flee Egypt.

Can anyone here tell us why=?

Ancient Egyptians were not Arabs. Duh! Earliest Arab tribes originated in Arabia, around 500 CE, according to Arab historians. 500 CE is the start of the Middle Ages, not ancient times. Arabs did not populate the eastern Mediterranean until the Arab conquests in the 7th century CE in the Islamic era…

CE stands for "Common Era" or, rarely "Christian Era." The word "common" simply means that it is based on the most frequently used calendar system, the Gregorian Calendar. Both take as their starting point the year when 4th-century Christian scholars believed Jesus Christ was born, designated as AD 1 or 1 CE.

So 1CE
is Jesus' first birthday.

When you say, Arabia I believe you meant-
Saudi Arabia
The Arabian Peninsula, (/əˈreɪbiən ... /; Arabic: شِبْهُ الْجَزِيرَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّة, shibhu l-jazīrati l-ʿarabiyyah, "Arabian Peninsula" or جَزِيرَةُ الْعَرَب, jazīratu l-ʿarab, "Island of the Arabs") or Arabia, is a peninsula of Western Asia, situated northeast of Africa on the Arabian Plate. At 3,237,500 km2 (1,250,000 sq mi), the Arabian Peninsula is the largest peninsula in the world.
Geographically, the Arabian Peninsula includes Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Yemen, as well as the southern portions of Iraq and Jordan.
The largest of these is Saudi Arabia.

The Arabian Peninsula formed as a result of the rifting of the Red Sea between 56 and 23 million years ago, and is bordered by the Red Sea to the west and southwest, the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman to the northeast, the Levant and Mesopotamia to the north and the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean to the southeast. The peninsula plays a critical geopolitical role in the Arab world and globally due to its vast reserves of oil and natural gas.

Shirley, you can find something on wiki.
 
Oh wise one, you be tha one with tha talent to find what we both are looking for.
It is your expertise that we need now at this late hour.

Find the courage to make an effort. The gods help those who do their own wiki trolling.

It is not expertise that you are looking for.

It is evidence that the Palestinians lived in Ancient Canaan 10,000 years ago, or 4000 years ago. That is the topic of this thread.

Otherwise, you found yourself in a maze and do not know the way out.
