Jacob dies and is buried in Canaan
Jacob died at 147; Joseph and his brothers carried him to Canaan and buried him in the cave of Machpelah, then Joseph reassured his fearful brothers.
for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field, as a possession for a burial site, from Ephron the Hittite, near Mamre.
Genesis 50:13 (World English Bible)
Egypt mourned Jacob for seventy days, and a great procession of Egyptian officials went with the family to bury him beside Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, Rebekah, and Leah.
Back in Egypt, the brothers feared Joseph would finally take revenge. He wept and gave them one of the Bible's great statements of God's providence: “you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good” (50:20).
