Genesis 12: 7-10

Genesis 12: 7-10 shows that when he first came to the land of Canaan that God told Abraham that this was the land that he was to go to. God further promised it to Abraham’s descendents.
It seems that at first Abraham mad steps to settle down but then kept going south because of a famine. He eventually went to Egypt not yet fully trusting God to fulfill his needs. This famine fits well with the theory of the ice age being caused by Genesis Flood since these events would have occurred near the end of this ice age with the accompanying shifts in climate.
