The book of Genesis – the book of beginnings – ends in a rather blunt way, telling us that “Joseph died, being 110 years old. They embalmed him and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.” After all of the gospel one sees in the book of Genesis, is this the way it all ends? To borrow from Winston Churchill, the last few verses of Genesis are but the end of the beginning. If we know something of the way the Hebrews thought of the disposition of the body in death, we find that there is a profound expectation of life far beyond Egypt and Canaan. See how Scripture traces the bones of Joseph over a 500 year period and how the book of Hebrews calls Joseph’s command concerning his bones an act of faith in Christ.
