Genesis 47:27-31
"Israel Settles in Goshen"
Israel has now settled into the land given them and Jacob makes a request of Joseph: He desires that when (not if) his descendants reach the promised land, that they would bury him there.
Jacob shows a large amount of trust in God and God's plan here. He remembers the promises of God and knows that He will follow through on His word. A fitting near-ending for one of the great patriarchs.
