(a) Acts 7:6 & Gen. 15:13 say the Israelites were in bondage and treated ill for 400 years. Exodus 12:40 says, "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years." Why the difference in times? The 430 years is more exact, while the 400 years is a simple rounding off of the time. ................
