V.1-12 Joseph’s family is settled in the best part of the land of Egypt (verses 6, 11)
V.13-26 Joseph is in complete control of Egypt. How they must have loved Joseph. This part of the story is a picture of the coming day of the 1,000 year reign of the Lord Jesus. The earth shall prosper and be at peace. Psalm 72:1-9 and Isaiah 11:4-9 are well worth reading about the millennium.
V.27-31 Jacob’s (or Israel’s) last days. But in spite of the lovely place he must have had, although it must have been a great thing to have his son the governor of the whole country, Jacob now turns has thoughts back to the land of promise! His resting place was not to be in Egypt, but in Israel.
