Acts 7:15

“So Jacob went down into Egypt, etc.] At the invitation of his son Joseph: and died, he, and our fathers; both Jacob and his twelve sons died in Egypt, though we have no account of the death of any of them, but Jacob and Joseph, particularly; only in general, that Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation, (<014933>Genesis 49:33 50:26) (<020106>Exodus 1:6) the Syriac version adds “there”, that is, in Egypt.”

“And died - Genesis 49:33. He and our fathers - The time which the Israelites remained in Egypt was 215 years, so that all the sons of Jacob were deceased before the Jews went out to go to the land of Canaan. And were carried over - Jacob himself was buried in the field of Macpelah by Joseph and his brethren, Genesis 1:13. It is expressly said that the bones of Joseph were carried by the Israelites when they went into the land of Canaan, and buried in Shechem, Joshua 24:32; compare Genesis 50:25. No mention is made in the Old Testament of their carrying the bones of any of the other patriarchs, but the thing is highly probable in itself. If the descendants of Joseph carried his bones, it…”

“Jacob: Gen 46:3-7; Num 20:15; Deu 10:22, Deu 26:5; Jos 24:4 died: Gen 49:33; Exo 1:6; Heb 11:21, Heb 11:22 Acts 7:16”
