Egypt

Most famous in the Bible as the place where Israel were subjected to slavery and from which they were delivered by Moses, Egypt—together with Egyptians, occurring nearly 750 times—is probably the most frequently reported place/nation in the Bible after Israel itself. Often forgotten, however, is also the fact that Egypt played an very important part in the life of the early church. One of the greatest champions against the Arian heresy was a young deacon from Alexandria.
