Löydetty 785 Tulokset: Joseph In Egypt

• Thus Joseph acquired all the farm land of Egypt for Pharaoh, since with the famine too much for them to bear, every Egyptian sold his field; so the land passed over to Pharaoh, (Genesis 47, 20)

• and the people were reduced to slavery, from one end of Egypt's territory to the other. (Genesis 47, 21)

• Only the priests' lands Joseph did not take over. Since the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh and lived off the allowance Pharaoh had granted them, they did not have to sell their land. (Genesis 47, 22)

• Joseph told the people: "Now that I have acquired you and your land for Pharaoh, here is your seed for sowing the land. (Genesis 47, 23)

• Thus Joseph made it a law for the land in Egypt, which is still in force, that a fifth of its produce should go to Pharaoh. Only the land of the priests did not pass over to Pharaoh. (Genesis 47, 26)

• Thus Israel settled in the land of Egypt, in the region of Goshen. There they acquired property, were fertile, and increased greatly. (Genesis 47, 27)

• When the time approached for Israel to die, he called his son Joseph and said to him: "If you really wish to please me, put your hand under my thigh as a sign of your constant loyalty to me; do not let me be buried in Egypt. (Genesis 47, 29)

• When I lie down with my ancestors, have me taken out of Egypt and buried in their burial place." (Genesis 47, 30)

• "I will do as you say," he replied. But his father demanded, "Swear it to me!" So Joseph swore to him. Then Israel bowed at the head of the bed. (Genesis 47, 31)

• Some time afterward, Joseph was informed, "Your father is failing." So he took along with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. (Genesis 48, 1)

• When Jacob was told, "Your son Joseph has come to you," he rallied his strength and sat up in bed. (Genesis 48, 2)
