Prophecy Update: Where Will You Leave Your Bones? | Genesis 50:1–26

Pastor Brandon Holthaus
In Genesis 50, we see the final chapter of two lives—Jacob and Joseph—but not the end of their story. When Jacob dies in Egypt, Joseph honors his father’s dying wish: to be buried in the land of Canaan, in the cave of Machpelah, alongside Abraham, Sarah, Isaac, and Leah. This act of faith signals something profound—Jacob didn’t want his bones to remain in Egypt, the land of temporary provision. He wanted to rest in the land God had promised—a land tied to covenant, kingdom, and resurrection hope. Later in the chapter, Joseph makes a similar request: “God will surely come to your aid, and you must carry my bones up from this place” (Genesis 50:25). Though he had power and position in Egypt, Joseph didn’t see Egypt as home. He believed God’s promises and looked forward to a greater inheritance. This isn’t just about geography. It’s a prophetic declaration: the people of God were never meant to settle for Egypt—a symbol of the world and temporary comfort. The patriarchs were looking forward to a better country (Hebrews 11:13–16), and their burial decisions reflected that hope. The Cave of Machpelah in Canaan served as a signpost of faith: It was the first piece of the promised land legally owned by Abraham. It symbolized a physical, future resurrection in the land God promised. It was a down payment on the coming Kingdom of God.

Thank you for being part of Tip of the Spear 🌟. Together, we can shine a light on biblical truth and the hope found in prophecy.

All the signs of the last days are converging at the same time. Bible Prophecy is happening right before our eyes and like birth pains, the predicted events are happening more frequently and more intently. Never, in the history throughout the world have so many forces, including economic, scientific, techno-logic, ecologic, cultural, geopolitical, moral, spiritual and religion, converged together to bring this world that's already teetering over the edge into the abyss, to a point of no return. Jesus said when you see all these signs happening, know that I am near, even at the door.
