So Jacob went down into Egypt
At the invitation of his son Joseph:
and died, he, and our fathers;
both Jacob and his twelve sons died in Egypt, though we have no account of the death of any of them, but Jacob and Joseph, particularly; only in general, that Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation, ( Genesis 49:33 ) ( 50:26 ) ( Exodus 1:6 ) the Syriac version adds "there", that is, in Egypt.
