Genesis 50:5-9
Context50:5 ‘My father made me swear an oath. He said, 1 “I am about to die. Bury me 2 in my tomb that I dug for myself there in the land of Canaan.” Now let me go and bury my father; then I will return.’” 50:6 So Pharaoh said, “Go and bury your father, just as he made you swear to do.” 3
50:7 So Joseph went up to bury his father; all Pharaoh’s officials went with him – the senior courtiers 4 of his household, all the senior officials of the land of Egypt, 50:8 all Joseph’s household, his brothers, and his father’s household. But they left their little children and their flocks and herds in the land of Goshen. 50:9 Chariots and horsemen also went up with him, so it was a very large entourage. 5
