Genesis 50:22-26

Bible Narrative Project

This passage says Joseph bore his great grand children on his knees (as in adopted them) but couldn’t it mean he lived so long he was able to bounce his great grand children on his knees? Like his father, he wants his bones to be brought to Canaan, but that has to wait centuries (Moses will fulfill it, Joseph will be buried in Shechem…and don’t forget ‘why’ when it comes time).
