Yusuf's story time frame:

Egypt in the Middle Kingdom period (2000 -1700 BCE) was around the time of the Hyksos which comprised a group of West Asian individuals who ruled Northern Egypt, especially the Delta, for 100 years.

After the recent discovery of the "Rosetta Stone", we learned that the rule of the “Pharaoh”

had disappeared for a short while, coinciding with the period when the “King” of the Hyksos colonized Egypt and the Israelites' tribe moved to Egypt.

This Quran chapter was revealed during the last stage of the Prophet's stay at Mecca year 622 CE.

It was a time when the unbelievers of Mecca were considering killing him.

Same time the Jews asked the unbelievers to test the Prophet Mohamed by asking him:

"Why did the Israelites go to Egypt?" knowing that the history of the Israelites was not known to the Arabs, therefore that would expose the prophet.

So The Prophet recited to them this Chapter on the spot.

even completing details unknown to them.
