They followed a Messiah who gave them commandments to live by. He is also known as Moses in the Torah.
They were led by a prophet who spoke to God and was told to return to Canaan. This is the story of the burning bush, where Moses talked to God through a, well, burning bush.
They were cattle herders. They were everything they had to be. They were on the move a lot so whatever moved with them was helpful.
They had many fights with the Canaanites, so they became strong warriors. They fight a lot, so they were always getting stronger.
