Genesis 50

Jacob dies, and his family mourns him. We discuss the importance of having the space and time to mourn properly. Specifically, a parent's passing. The elders and Egyptian servants travelled with Joseph's family to his requested buryingplace in Mamre.

Joseph's brothers apologized to him sincerely for treating him terribly and selling him into slavery. Joseph responds that what they meant for evil saved their family from the famine. He had sincerely forgiven his brothers.

Joseph dies at the end of this chapter, and is buried in Egypt.
This concludes the book of Genesis.
