Back of the peo ple who occupied that land before tbe events of Exodus were written we are not able to trace the word, for we have not sufficient knowledge of then or of tbelr etymological history before we find them In Canaan. It has been only within recent yein that we have been able to know tbit the word “alphabet" came to ua from the Phoenicians.
