“Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.”
Psalms 105:23 (KJV)
Commentary on Psalms 105:23
Israel (Jacob) 'came into Egypt' and Jacob 'sojourned in the land of Ham.' This transition sets up the Exodus narrative. What began as temporary sojourn (ger) became prolonged settlement, eventually leading to slavery. 'Ham' refers to Egypt through Noah's son Ham, father of Mizraim (Egypt, Gen 10:6). God's providence brought Israel to Egypt for preservation, growth, and ultimately for demonstrating His power in the Exodus. Christ's family also fled to Egypt (Matt 2:13-15), fulfilling 'Out of Egypt I called my son' (Hos 11:1).
