Did you know that Egypt ruled Canaan before the Israelites?

After the Egyptians ravage the Hyksos, they integrate Canaan into their empire and rule there. This episode follows the story of Lab'ayu, a corrupt Canaanite king, to show the chaos and corruption that pervaded Canaan under the Egyptians.
