Genesis 50:20

²⁰Vos cogitastis de me malum: sed Deus vertit illud in bonum, ut exaltaret me, sicut in prsentiarum cernitis, et salvos faceret multos populos.a

Genesis 50 concludes the book of Genesis with Joseph's final acts of faithfulness and reconciliation. Following Jacob's death, Joseph fulfills his father's burial request in Canaan, demonstrating deep respect and filial piety. The chapter then addresses the lingering fear of Joseph's brothers regarding his potential revenge, leading to a profound moment of forgiveness and a theological declaration of God's sovereign hand in all events. Joseph's own death and his final request for his bones to be carried to the Promised Land underscore the enduring hope of God's covenant promises.
