Jacob’s sons brought their father’s body up from Egypt to Canaan and buried him in the Cave of Machpelah per Jacob’s final wishes. Afterward, Joseph and his brothers returned to Egypt where Joseph died aged 110. Before he died, Joseph called his brothers to him and foretold that God would one day bring the nation of Israel back from Egypt to Canaan. Joseph directed them to bring his own bones up from Egypt with them and bury him in Canaan. Then Joseph died and was placed in a coffin in Egypt until the day God brought His people up from Egypt.
