Genesis 50:2
_ _ Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father, etc. — In ancient Egypt the embalmers were a class by themselves. The process of embalmment consisted in infusing a great quantity of resinous substances into the cavities of the body, after the intestines had been removed, and then a regulated degree of heat was applied to dry up the humors, as well as decompose the tarry materials which had been previously introduced. Thirty days were alloted for the completion of this process; forty more were spent in anointing it with spices; the body, tanned from this operation, being then washed, was wrapped in numerous folds of linen cloth — the joinings of which were fastened with gum, and then it was deposited in a wooden chest made in the form of a human figure. |
Genesis 50:2
He ordered the body to be embalmed, not only because he died in Egypt, and that was the manner of the Egyptians, but because he was to be carried to Canaan, which would be a work of time. |
Genesis 50:2
And Joseph commanded his servants the (a) physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.
(a) He means those who embalmed the dead and buried them. |
- the physicians:
- The Hebrew ropheim, from rapha, to heal, is literally the healers, those whose business it was to heal, or restore the body from sickness, by administering proper medicines; and when death took place, to heal or preserve it from decomposition by embalming. The word chanat, to embalm, is also used in Arabic to express the reddening of leather; somewhat analogous to our tanning; which is probably the grand principal in embalming.
