What is of interest is northern Egypt from the Nile Delta area called Goshen. That's where Jacob and his family of 70 settled, and later where the Hyksos also lived. They had come from Canaan.
Amarna, the city, in an isolated desert bay some 10 kilometers from the Nile, was the seat of power of Egypt’s “monotheistic” Pharaoh Akhenaten. It's south of Goshen, however. The Amarna Period took place at the end of the 18th Dynasty in Egypt between 1353-1322 BCE and refers to the reigns of pharaoh's Amenophis IV (Akhenaten), Nefernefruaten, Smenkhkare, and Tutankhamun,
What and where is Amarna? Amarna (Tell el-Amarna) can be found on the east bank of the river Nile about half way between Egypt's capital city of Cairo in the north and Luxor in the south.
Called a “heretic” by his own people, Akhenaten ruled a mere 17 years until his death in 1332 BC. The discovery of workmen’s burial plots of child slaves of biblical Egypt— built and deserted within 15 years — provide a window into his brief reign and the mores of the time. Archaeologist Mary Shepperson, who previously dug with the Amarna Project, reported in The Guardian this week on the discovery of “the simple desert graves of the ordinary Egyptians who lived and worked in Akhenaten’s city and never got to leave.” A further suggestion is that the North Tombs Cemetery may represent a captured or deported population brought to Amarna for labor. This is perfectly possible and would account for the lack of family contact and the apparent disregard shown for young life,” she wrote. “We hope that future DNA analysis of the bones might clarify the geographical origins of the North Tombs Cemetery skeletons.” Since Akhenaton’s worship of Aton as ‘sole god’ is earlier than the date commonly ascribed to Moses (ca. 1280 BC), historians have puzzled over possible relationships between the monotheism of Akhenaton and the Biblical concept of one God. Sigmund Freud in his ‘Moses and Monotheism’ sought to trace the Hebrew-Christian faith to the Amarna revolt of Akhenaton,” wrote Central Michigan University’s Prof. Charles F. Pfeiffer, in his 1963 “Tell El-Amarna and the Bible.”
Aton worship (the sun) was not fully monotheistic (because the pharaoh himself was considered a god), nor was it a direct precursor of monotheistic religions such as Judaism.
Much of the extant correspondence between Egypt and its Canaanite vassals was found in the form of cuneiform tablets at Amarna. Beginning in 1887, Egyptian tomb raiders began digging up and selling the tablets, which were written primarily in the era’s diplomatic language, Akkadian. Mentioned on the tablets is a people labeled the “‘Apiru” or “Habiru.” According to Pfeiffer and other scholars, the term, although similar sounding to the word “Hebrew,” was more of a social class descriptor for groups of lawless, landless people who live outside of cities and attempt to raid them. Throwing a bucket of cold water on any possible Habiru-Hebrew connection, the late Tel Aviv University professor of Semitic linguistics Anson Rainey once said, “The plethora of attempts to relate apiru (Habiru) to the gentilic ibri are all nothing but wishful thinking.” However, perhaps throwing this reporter a bone, he concluded, “The mention of DNA analysis is a hopeful pointer to what might be possible one day, when suitable facilities can be accessed in Cairo.”
The DNA company that is the best for genealogy is ancestry.com, but they also do DNA studies. Evidently many people are showing an ancestry to Egypt. Are there sub-regions for the Egypt DNA region?
While there are not currently sub-regions under the main Egypt DNA region, there are some sub-regions and DNA Communities under the Levant DNA region that correspond to parts of Egypt. For example, if you have a strong genetic connection to the Nile Delta area, including Cairo and parts north, you may have the Levant DNA region with the Nile Delta sub-region. Immigration directly from Egypt to the United States and Canada began in earnest in the 1970s. There were many factors that encouraged emigration from Egypt, but there was also a change to the Egyptian constitution in 1971 that relaxed rules for those who wanted to permanently leave the country. This would not show ancient connections, however. Work on ancient found bones and mummies are used for that.
Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) has a Levant group of J2a-under L26. Some members are Jewish. 
"The mummies came from an ancient Nile community, known as the Abusir el-Meleq. The team noted that their ancestry more closely matched modern Mediterranean and Middle Eastern individuals, rather than Egyptians. Their complexions were thought to be light brown, with dark hair and eyes and no freckles. A press release from Parabon went into detail, saying: "These results are highly consistent with Schuenemann et al's conclusions that 'ancient Egyptians shared more ancestry with Near Easterners than present-day Egyptians, who received additional sub-Saharan admixture in more recent times' and that they had an allele for lighter skin.'" This is thought to be the first time modern techniques have been used on human DNA of this age, with the trio of samples estimated to be between 2,023 and 2,797 years old. " That's not as old as our history, but it helps.

Ancient Egyptians and their modern counterparts share less in common than you might think. That is, at least genetically, a team of scientists have found.
They discovered that King Tut had a DNA profile that belongs to a group called haplogroup R1b1a2. This group can be found in over 50 percent of European men and shows the researchers that there is a common ancestor. This is my son's haplogroup, also called R-M269, I believe, who's father's line was from England. Recent DNA analyses from the mummies of Tut and his kin revealed that the boy king's parents were siblings. Those results, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in February 2010, pointed to the "heretic" king Akhenaten and one of his sisters as the mom and dad of Tut. But researcher Marc Gabolde said in a talk at Harvard University last week that he believes King Tut's mom was Akhenaten's cousin Nefertiti, who was Akhenaten's chief wife and the mother of six of his daughters.
There is a group of Levites with R-M269. This was unusual as mostly Levites would be from the tribe of Levi, and be J1.
Three ancient Egyptian individuals were analysed for Y-DNA, two were assigned to West Asian haplogroup J and one to haplogroup E1b1b1 both are carried by modern Egyptians, and also common among Afroasiatic speakers in Northern Africa and the Middle East. The researchers cautioned that the examined ancient Egyptian specimens may not be representative of those of all ancient Egyptians since they were from a single archaeological site from the northern part of Egypt. The Nile Delta is as north as you can get. (J1 and J2 are the Y haplogroups of the Cohens of Judaism and also of many Arabs. E1 is also common among Jewish males.)
Researchers from the University of Tuebingen and the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History in Jena, both in Germany, have decoded the genome of ancient Egyptians for the first time, with unexpected results.
Publishing its findings in Nature Communications, the study concluded that preserved remains found in Abusir-el Meleq, Middle Egypt, were closest genetic relatives of Neolithic and Bronze Age populations from the Near East (Middle East), Anatolia and Eastern Mediterranean Europeans.
Only in the last five or six years has it become possible to actually study DNA from ancient humans, because we can now show whether DNA is ancient or not by (its) chemical properties.”
Heat and high humidity in tombs, paired with some of the chemicals involved in mummification, all contribute to DNA degradation, the paper adds, but it describes its findings as “the first reliable data set obtained from ancient Egyptians.”
Analyzing samples spanning over a millennium, researchers looked for genetic differences compared with Egyptians today. They found that the sample set showed a strong connection with a cluster of ancient non-African populations based east of the Mediterranean Sea.
Archaeologist Judith Marquet-Krause, ca. 1933. Source: Wikimedia Commons. Her most notable accomplishment came in 1933 when she was appointed to lead the excavation at the ancient city of Ai and determine whether the Book of Joshua’s description of the city—as a royal Canaanite city conquered by the Israelites during the conquests of Joshua—was accurate. An early death cut short her promising career as an archeologist of Biblical cities.Krause hypothesizes that ancient Northern Egypt would be much the same, if not more, linked to the Near East. Marquet-Krause was a pioneer among archaeologists who were born in Erez Israel and sought to learn the secrets of its past. She was the first archaeologist to manage so large an excavation team and to prepare the first reports in Hebrew.
In 2012, the 20th dynasty mummies of Ramesses III and another mummy "Unknown Man E" believed to be Ramesses III's son Pentawer were analyzed by Albert Zink, Yehia Z Gad and a team of researchers under Zahi Hawass, then Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities, Egypt. Genetic kinship analyses revealed identical haplotypes in both mummies using the Whit Athey's haplogroup predictor, the Y chromosomal haplogroup E1b1a (E-M2) was predicted.
Two haplogroups, E1b1b and J, that are carried by both ancient and modern Egyptians. The subclade E-M78 of E1b1b is suggested to have originated in Northeast Africa in the area of Egypt and Libya, and is more predominant in Egypt.
The famous Hyksos were one such group that actually controlled lower Egypt from their capital at Avaris (Tell el-Dab‘a) in the eastern Nile Delta for a century during either the later Patriarchal period using conventional Egyptian chronology (ca. 1650–1550 BC) or the post-Exodus period in a revised Egyptian chronology (ca.1490–1340 BC). Non-Egyptian burials, architecture, and Canaanite style pottery from the site of Tell el-Yahudiya farther to the south (Tell el-Yahudiya Site with remains dating from the Second Intermediate to the Roman Period. A palace at the site dates most likely under Ramesses III. There is also a Hellenistic Jewish temple (temple of Onias) described by ancient authors and identified and excavated by Petrie.) also attest to the presence of so-called “Asiatics” (the Egyptian term used for Canaanites and other West Semitic peoples) in Egypt. Therefore, these mummies only confirm influxes of people into Egypt from the Levant and farther north early in its history. The Nile delta region of Egypt was probably a rich mixture of Egyptians and various immigrant groups at least as early as the time of Abraham (e.g., Bietak 1987; Wengrow 2006: 135–50; Bard 2008: 195–99).
(Genesis 45:1-26) Joseph spoke to his brothers in Egypt and told them that this was the 2nd year of the hunger years and there were 5 year in which there would be neither plowing nor harvest so they were to return to Canaan and bring back their father, Jacob. "You will reside in the land of Goshen. and you will be near to me." Pharaoh said, I will give you the best of the land of Egypt and you will eat the fat of the land. They had wagons for the small children and wives. ..the best of all the land of Egypt--it is yours." The Hyksos were never mentioned in the Torah, so they must have come after Joseph's time.

Invoking Soros is a go-to for right-wing politicians and activists that many see as rooted in the antisemitic trope of a moneyed Jewish puppet master. But Alan Dershowitz, the celebrity lawyer who was Trump’s counsel during his first impeachment, recently said it’s fine to criticize Soros because “he’s not much of a Jew.” (Forward) I think many of us are indeed, smiling. We know that Soros hasn't backed Israel, at least not that the public knows of.
