So, whether you are willing to believe that Hebrews had a 400 year experience in Egypt or not, there is a solution to such experiences. You can leave when the opportunity presents itself and you need to acknowledge the pain of the said experience. Read Victor Frankl on resilience. The Ten commandments and the various rules of community are a wall against the communal confusion and anger of soul that can rise out of such an experience. This is so for West Indians and other peoples from the Caribbean who take a great deal of time to preserve the pain that came from the said experience. But, Roots(tv series) was cancelled a long time ago, Aunt Jemima wears pearls, Daddies may have little girls(see movie of similar title if you wish) but slavery ended in 1865 and you have no excuse to be a menace to society.
