The final chapter of Genesis highlights two funerals — Jacob’s and Joseph’s — while showcasing Joseph’s full forgiveness of his brothers. After Jacob’s burial in Canaan, the brothers are filled with fear that Joseph might now seek revenge, but Joseph reassures them with one of the most powerful statements in Scripture: “You meant evil against me, but God meant it for good.” This reminds us to stop complaining and trust that God can transform tragedy for his purposes. Even in death, Jacob and Joseph demonstrate unwavering faith in God’s covenant promises.
