Genesis 50:14
And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father. And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.
After Jacob was buried, Joseph went back to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone up with him for the burial, and this return marks the close of the family's burial journey. It belongs to the closing part of Genesis that covers the last days and death of Jacob and Joseph. It belongs to the second main division of Genesis, chapters 12-50, which sets forth God's dealings with the chosen race, distinct from chapters 1-11, which set forth God's dealings with the human race.
It belongs to the account of Joseph's last days, whose lesson is that the just person's character grows stronger throughout life, as the disposition Joseph showed in youth developed through his years. It stands within the story of Israel's journey to Egypt and the account of God's providential care for Joseph's family in preserving their lives. That preservation shows God's care in preserving the family from whom the promised Seed would come. The regard paid to Jacob at his burial shows the impression the Israelites had made upon Egypt.
The burial account in Genesis 50:1-14 illustrates honoring father and mother, for honoring a parent included caring for and sustaining him, arranging his burial, observing mourning rites and funeral, and accompanying his body to the family burial place at Machpelah to lay him beside his father, even from a distant land. This proves the fifth commandment was already in force long before Sinai and already governed the domestic life of God's chosen servants. As part of the survey of Joseph's life, the verse holds striking lessons and underlying principles for dealing with the contingencies of life, giving a counterpart in Bible biography to experiences people still go through, so that Joseph's example can help and guide anyone passing through a similar experience for their own soul's good and for counseling others in similar difficulties, as part of the Bible as a guidebook to be known familiarly and trusted to the very end.
