Gênesis

  • Burial Preparations and Mourning for Jacob

  • |Gênesis 50:1| Then Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept over him and kissed him [tenderly].

  • |Gênesis 50:2| Then Joseph ordered his servants the physicians to embalm (mummify) his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel (Jacob).

  • |Gênesis 50:3| Now forty days were required for this, for that is the customary number of days [of preparation] required for embalming. And the Egyptians wept and grieved for him [in public mourning as they would for royalty] for seventy days.

  • |Gênesis 50:4| When the days of weeping and public mourning for him were past, Joseph spoke to [the nobles of] the house of Pharaoh, saying, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please speak to Pharaoh, saying,

  • |Gênesis 50:5| 'My father made me swear [an oath], saying, "Hear me, I am about to die; bury me in my tomb which I prepared for myself in the land of Canaan." So now let me go up [to Canaan], please, and bury my father; then I will return.'"

  • |Gênesis 50:6| And Pharaoh said, "Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear."

  • |Gênesis 50:7| So Joseph went up [to Canaan] to bury his father, and with him went all the officials of Pharaoh, [the nobles of his court and] the elders of his household and all [the nobles and] the elders of the land of Egypt—

  • |Gênesis 50:8| and all the household of Joseph and his brothers and his father's household. They left only their little ones and their flocks and herds in the land of Goshen.

  • |Gênesis 50:9| Both chariots and horsemen also went up [to Canaan] with Joseph; and it was a very great company.

  • |Gênesis 50:10| When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, they mourned there with a great lamentation (expressions of mourning for the deceased) and [extreme demonstrations of] sorrow [according to Egyptian custom]; and Joseph observed a seven-day mourning for his father.
