Day 48 - Genesis : Chapter 48

Day of the move and nothing .. almost nothing.. is done yet. We need to get rushing now.

Genesis 48 : Jacob blesses Joseph's sons

Joseph hears that his father is ill and goes to him. Jacob says that God has blessed him and he would like to give the blessings to Joseph's sons.

Joseph brings his sons Manasseh and Ephraim to Jacob. Jacob crosses his hands, puts his right hand on Ephraim the younger and left on Manasseh the elder. Joseph tries to change thinking that his father is mistaken. But Jacob says Ephraim, even though he is younger will have a greater nation than Manasseh.

Jacob also gives the land of Shechem to Joseph.
