Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hebrews 11:22

_ _ when he died — “when dying.”

_ _ the departing — “the exodus” (Genesis 50:24, Genesis 50:25). Joseph’s eminent position in Egypt did not make him regard it as his home: in faith he looked to God’s promise of Canaan being fulfilled and desired that his bones should rest there: testifying thus: (1) that he had no doubt of his posterity obtaining the promised land: and (2) that he believed in the resurrection of the body, and the enjoyment in it of the heavenly Canaan. His wish was fulfilled (Joshua 24:32; Acts 4:16).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hebrews 11:4-31.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Hebrews 11:22

Concerning his bones — To be carried into the land of promise.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Hebrews 11:22
