Joseph Part 23: Jacob's Burial
Oct 27, 2026 • Michael Ryan Stotler
Why does the Book of Genesis end with a high-profile funeral procession and a dead man in a cave?
In Joseph Part 23: Jacob's Burial, we walk through Genesis 50:1–21 to examine the dramatic contrast between Egyptian concepts of the afterlife and Israel's hope in the God of Abraham. Join us as we look at the stair-step structure of Jacob’s burial, the profound symbolism of the "Garden-Thorn Place," and the powerful moment Joseph comforts his fearful brothers by recognizing God’s overarching providence over human choices.
