Joseph dies
Genesis 50:22–26; Exodus 13:19; Hebrews 11:22
Joseph died at 110, making his brothers' descendants swear to carry his bones to Canaan when God brought them out.
Joseph said to his brothers, “I am dying, but God will surely visit you, and bring you up out of this land to the land which he swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
Genesis 50:24 (World English Bible)
Joseph lived to see his great-grandchildren. Though he had ruled Egypt, he knew it wasn't home. His last request was an act of faith: when God visited Israel, they were to take his bones with them. Moses did (Exodus 13:19), and Joshua buried them at Shechem (Joshua 24:32).
Genesis ends here, with Joseph in a coffin in Egypt, waiting for God's promise.
