| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible recap. |
| 0:13.1 | Yesterday we saw Jacob preparing for his death at the age of 147 by asking his son Joseph |
| 0:18.4 | to make sure he was buried in Canaan, not Egypt. |
| 0:22.2 | Today we pick up with Jacob blessing Joseph's sons Ephraim and Manasseh before he dies. |
| 0:28.0 | Jacob recounts God's promises to him to give him many offspring and to give them the |

| 1:21.9 | He compares Joseph's two oldest children to his two oldest children, Ruben and Simeon. |
| 1:27.4 | And while this feels a little weird to me, it's actually probably a generous move. |
| 1:32.1 | A way of establishing that these two boys will receive an inheritance from him along with |
