No, let me correct you and @313ghazi he was born in West Asia in Semetic peoples which includes Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic etc.
Calling the region in such convoluted terms as Middle East or Levant is merely expresson of a agenda. We might as well call Greece Occident, Italy etc Middle West and reserve the term Europe only for the blonde Amigos of the frigid north west.
Historicall that is very true. Ancient Greece was just extension of West Asia and part of the ancient Egypt, Phoenician, Canaan, Hitite, Sumerian etc civilizatiions. Ancient Greeks showed no interest in what later was named Europe. Nearly 2,000 years later after North West rose and economic/military power pulled the Greeks into it's fold.
I would not say no interest. We founded many colonies in Italy, Sardinia, Siciliy. But main focus was east and Egypt back then
