Joshua 24:32
And the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, buried they in Shechem, in a parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for an hundred pieces of silver: and it became the inheritance of the children of Joseph.
Joshua 24:32 belongs to Joshua's final words to Israel, spoken after the wars of conquest had ended and Israel had received rest from its enemies. It stands within that closing address as the record of a last act of faithfulness to the generation that had come out of bondage.
It records that Israel buried the remains of Joseph, brought up out of Egypt, in the parcel of ground at Shechem that Jacob had bought. That burial made the field part of the history of the fathers and the setting for Israel's covenant renewal.
