Joseph Is Governor of Egypt

47 Then Joseph ^(A)went and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, their flocks and their herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Canaan; and indeed they are in ^(B)the land of Goshen.”

³¹ Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, ^(A)“I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘My brothers and those of my father’s house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.

^10 (A)You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near to me, you and your children, your children’s children, your flocks and your herds, and all that you have.

Jacob Settles in Goshen

²⁸ Then he sent Judah before him to Joseph, ^(A)to point out before him the way to Goshen. And they came ^(B)to the land of Goshen.

¹¹ For ^(A)both He who ^[a]sanctifies and those who are being sanctified ^(B)are all of one, for which reason ^(C)He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

^26 (A)Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

²² And in that day ^(A)I will set apart the land of ^(B)Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, in order that you may ^(C)know that I am the Lord in the midst of the ^(D)land.

³⁴ that you shall say, ‘Your servants’ ^(A)occupation has been with livestock ^(B)from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,’ that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is ^(C)an^[a] abomination to the Egyptians.”

¹⁶ Now the report of it was heard in Pharaoh’s house, saying, “Joseph’s brothers have come.” So it pleased Pharaoh and his servants well.
