According to the bible, where did egypt arise from?

score:2

Accepted answer

According to the Table of Nations in Genesis 10, the Egyptians are descended from Ham (the son of Noah):

The sons of Ham were Cush and Mizraim and Put and Canaan. - Genesis 10:6 NASB

Mizraim is the Hebrew word for the nation of Egypt, in fact a number of versions translate this verse as such, eg:

The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put and Canaan. - Genesis 10:6 NIV
