Theological / Devotional

Thy father is sick. Not long after the visit of Joseph, at which Jacob made arrangements for his burial, Joseph was informed of his father’s final illness. He immediately went to him with his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, who were between 19 and 25 years of age (see v. 5; chs. 47:28; 41:50; 45:6).
