In context

²⁴Then Joseph sent his brothers on their way, and as they were leaving, he said to them, “Do not quarrel on the way!”

²⁵So the brothers went up out of Egypt and came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.

²⁶“Joseph is still alive,” they said, “and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt!” But Jacob was stunned, for he did not believe them.

²⁷However, when they relayed all that Joseph had told them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him back, the spirit of their father Jacob was revived.

²⁸“Enough!” declared Israel. “My son Joseph is still alive! I will go to see him before I die.”
