Question: Why did the Hebrews flee to ancient Egypt!? or were they invaders to it!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

They wandered in with the Hyksos around 1800bc!., forced by pressures from the Hittites and an era of global cooling!. The Hyksos were part of an invasion that temporarily overwhelmed and ruled Egypt, but the Egyptians soon re-asserted themselves!.
