Genesis 50:12 meaning and explanation
So Jacob’s sons did as he had charged them.
Genesis 50:12, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Jacob had made his sons swear to bury him in the cave of Machpelah in Canaan, the family tomb Abraham had purchased, rather than leave him in Egypt. This verse is the brief report that they kept that promise, and it closes the long funeral procession that began when Joseph wept over his father and asked Pharaoh for leave to go.
