So Joseph died The phrase marks the end of an era in the Genesis narrative. Joseph, a central figure in the history of Israel, passes away, signifying the close of the patriarchal stories. The Hebrew word for "died" is "mût," which is often used in the Old Testament to denote the physical death of a person. Joseph's death is not just a biological end but a transition in God's unfolding plan for His people. His life, marked by faithfulness and divine providence, serves as a testament to God's sovereignty and the fulfillment of His promises. at the age of 110 And they embalmed his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt With the death of Joseph ends the preparation for the formation of a chosen race. Summoned from a remote city upon the Persian Gulf to Palestine, Abraham had wandered there as a stranger, and Isaac and Jacob had followed in his steps. But in Palestine the race could never have multiplied largely; for there were races already there too powerful to permit of their rapid increase. Abraham and Lot, Esau and Jacob had been compelled to separate; but now, under Joseph, they had been placed in a large, fertile, and well-nigh uninhabited region. The few who dwelt there were, as far as we can judge, of the Semitic stock, and whatever immigrants came from time to time were also of the same race, and were soon enrolled in the "taf" of some noble or chief. And thus all was ready for their growth into a nation; and when we next read of them they had multiplied into a people so vast that Egypt was afraid of them. Verse 26. - So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old (literally, a son of a hundred and ten years), and they (i.e. the children of Israel) embalmed him (vide on ver. 2), and he was put in a coffin (or chest, i.e. a mummy case, which was commonly constructed of sycamore wood) in Egypt, where he remained for a period of 360 years, until the time of the Exodus, when, according to the engagement now given, his remains were carried up to Canaan, and solemnly deposited in the sepulcher of Shechem (Joshua 24:32). |
