1 Josephstarted crying, then leaned over to hug and kiss his father.
2 Josephgave orders for Jacob’s body to be embalmed, 3 and it took the usual 40 days.
The Egyptians mourned 70 days for Jacob. 4 When the time of mourning was over, Josephsaid to the Egyptian leaders, "If you consider me your friend, please speak to the king50.4 the king: See the note at 12.15.for me. 5 Gn 47.29-31.Just before my father died, he made me promise to bury him in his burial cave in Canaan. If the king will give me permission to go, I will come back here."
6 The king answered, "Go to Canaan and keep your promise to your father."
7-9 When Josephleft Goshenwith his brothers, his relatives, and his father’s relatives to bury Jacob, many of the king’s highest officials and even his military chariots and cavalry went along. The Israelites left behind only their children, their cattle, and their sheep and goats.
10 After crossing the Jordan River, Joseph stopped at Atad’s threshing place, where they all mourned and wept seven days for Jacob. 11 The Canaanites saw this and said, "The Egyptians are in great sorrow." Then they named the place "Egypt in Sorrow."50.11 Egypt in Sorrow: Or "Abel-Mizraim."
12 So Jacob’s sons did just as their father had instructed. 13 Ac 7.16.They took him to Mamrein Canaanand buried him in MachpelahCave, the burial place Abrahamhad bought from Ephronthe Hittite.
14 After the funeral, Joseph, his brothers, and everyone else returned to Egypt.
Joseph’s Promise to His Brothers
15 After Jacob died, Joseph’s brothers said to each other, "What if Josephstill hates us and wants to get even with us for all the cruel things we did to him?"
16 So they sent this message to Joseph:
Before our father died, 17 he told us, "You did some cruel and terrible things to Joseph, but you must ask him to forgive you."
Now we ask you to please forgive the terrible things we did. After all, we serve the same God that your father worshiped.
When Josephheard this, he started crying.
18 Right then, Joseph’s brothers came and bowed down to the ground in front of him and said, "We are your slaves."
19 But Josephtold them, "Don’t be afraid! I have no right to change what God has decided. 20 You tried to harm me, but God made it turn out for the best, so that he could save all these people, as he is now doing. 21 Don’t be afraid! I will take care of you and your children." After Joseph said this, his brothers felt much better.
Joseph’s Death
22 Josephlived in Egyptwith his brothers until he died at the age of 110. 23 Josephlived long enough to see Ephraim’s children and grandchildren. He also lived to see the children of Manasseh’s son Machir, and he welcomed them into his family. 24 Before Josephdied, he told his brothers, "I won’t live much longer. But God will take care of you and lead you out of Egyptto the land he promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 25 Ex 13.19;Js 24.32;He 11.22.Now promise me that you will take my body with you when God leads you to that land."
26 So Josephdied in Egyptat the age of 110; his body was embalmed and put in a coffin.
