Death?

Joseph's bones were dug up so he could be buried with his people in his own land.  They didn't want to leave his shell in Egypt.  I believe that is all that it means....being buried near your own family on your own land.

Hello Night,

There is a simple principle that will help us as we study the scriptures, If something in scriptural, and true, then nothing in scripture can or will contradict that scripture.

That by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.[Matt 18:16]

For example:

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave,[Sheol] whither thou goest. [ Ecc 9:10] 

Second witness:

 Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. 

If these scriptures be true, then nothing can or will contradict them...

Hope this helps

Chris R
