The descendants of Jacob were called Hebrews or Israelites. Over the years, their numbers greatly increased in Egypt.

Pharaoh told Joseph, “Tell your brothers to go back to Canaan and get your father. They should bring him back here, as well as their families. Have them take wagons from Egypt so their wives and children can travel in comfort. Don’t worry about their belongings, because I will give them the best of Egypt.
When the men got back to Canaan, Jacob was stunned when they told him everything that happened! At first he didn’t believe that Joseph was actually alive. But eventually, he became thrilled as he listened to stories about Joseph and all he had done.

Jacob wanted to have a private conversation with his two wives, so they met out in the field. He said to them, “I worked hard for your father, even though he changed our deal ten times.

So the Angel of God has told me to return to the land of my fathers.”
