other even as god ilso ii christ forgave kpliesluus 13 the lesson in its setting time according to the ejm- mou chronology jacob went down with his family into egypt bc 1715 he died bc ig9s joseph died bc 1643 place josephs residence in egypt was at zoan the capita of the kingdom at that time located on the eastern part of the nile delta the hebrew people settled in the land of goshen in the eastern part of egypt and north of the southern part of the delta hebron is nine teen miles to the southwest of jerusalem and israel took his journey witn all that he had and came to beer- sheba and ogered sacrifices unto the god of his father isaac israel who is as we have seen before the same as jacob knew that he and his en tire family the chosen people of go were on the threshold of a great ex perience were at a turningpoint il their history and coming to know through his long years of experience that great ventures undertaken with out god are doomed to failure tn- ries at beersheba on his way down into egypt to offer sacrifice to god see 21332g24 2810 and god spake unto israel in the visions of the night and said jacob jacob and he said here am i 3 and he said i am god the god of thy father fear not to n down into egypt for i will there make of thee a great nation i i will go down with thee into egypt and i will also surely bring the p again and joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes here is the fulfill ment of the oftrepeated promise they that seek jehovah shall not want any good thing psalm 3410 four things are promised gods permission to go down into egypt gods presence as they go into egypt gods promise to make of them in egypt a great nation and gods purpose to bring them back again to canaan and probably gods assurance that jacobs descendants would come back to canaan in the future was the most reassuring of all gods gracious promises to jacob this day and jacob rose up from beer- sheba and the sons of israel carried jacob their father and their little ones and their wives in the wagons which pharaoh had sent to carry him and they took their cattle and their goods which they had gotten in the land of canaan and came in to egypt jacob and all his seed with him his sons and sons soni with him hla daughters and nis sons daughters and all his seed brought he with him into egypt the wagons which joseph sent were certainly fourwheeled conveyances in such wagons drawn by oxen did the women and children of the patriarchal family travel tin cattle were driven and the rest of the goods packed upon asses and camels v delitzseh while the carefully enumerated list of names of those who went down into egypt is important in a minute discussion of hebrew history we do need here spend but a moment with it we must not ident ify this list with another contain ed ii numbers 26 written two hundred and fifty years later jacob himself at this time was one hundred and thirty years old 47 0 and joseph approximately forty years old while reuben the oldest was about fortysix and benjamin the youngest about twen tysix the sons of leah are first enumerated in 01 i r then the sons of zilpath leahs handmaid 161s then the sons of rachel who alone is here called the wife of jacob l22 and finally the sons of bilhah uachaels handmaid 2335 all the souls that went with jacob into egypt that came out or his loins were eleven sons one daughter fifty grandchildren and four great grandsons in all sixty- six jacob joseph and his two sons aro four and thus all the souls be longing to the family of jacob which went into the valley of egypt wen- seventy the septuagint gives seven tyfive as the sum total which is made out of inserting five names not found in this list and he sent jural before him up to joseph to show the way be fore him unto goshen and they came unto the land of goshen joseph had previously promised iiis brethren that they should dwell in the land of goshen 4510 and the region ill lower egypt east of the bubastie branch of the xile a region not of any great extent having an area of approximately nine hundred square miles but exceedingly fertile and which allowed the israelites more or less of a life of separation from the contaminating influences of great egyptian cities and joseph made ready his char iot and went up to meet israel lib father to goshen and he present ed hinislf unto him and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while and israel said unto joseph now let me die since 1 have seen thy face that thou art yet alive the meaning of the patriarch is that since with his own eyes he was now

that many rural schools will be paying through the nos assured of josephs happiness he had nonthing more to live for tie last earthly longing of his heart hav ing been completely satisfied and was perfectly prepared for the last scene of all ready whenever god willed to be called to his fathers and joseph said unto his brethren i die but god will surely visit you i bring you up out of this land unto the land which he aware to abraham to issac and to jacob and joseph took an oath of the children of israel saying god will surely visit you and ye shall carry up my bones from hence through all
