Before he died, Joseph made his family promise to take his remains out of Egypt, to the promised land. As Alistair Begg points out, Joseph’s bones became a physical reminder to the generations that came after, a legacy of his steady obedience across the years and of his confidence in God’s promises for himself and his family. Today, too, we have the joy and responsibility of proclaiming Christ to our children and grandchildren, right down to the end of our lives.
