Genesis 50:22 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 50:22

And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house
Comfortably, quietly, and in great prosperity, not only he, but his brethren and their families, as long as he lived:

and Joseph lived one hundred and ten years;
and all but seventeen of them in Egypt, for at that age it was when he was brought thither: thirteen years he lived in Potiphar's house, and in prison, for he was thirty years of age when he was brought to Pharaoh, and stood before him, and fourscore years he lived in the greatest honour and prosperity that a man could well wish for.

Genesis 50:22 In-Context

20 You planned something bad for me, but God produced something good from it, in order to save the lives of many people, just as he's doing today.
21 Now, don't be afraid. I will take care of you and your children." So he put them at ease and spoke reassuringly to them.
22 Thus Joseph lived in Egypt, he and his father's household. Joseph lived 110 years
23 and saw Ephraim's grandchildren. The children of Machir, Manasseh's son, were also born on Joseph's knees.
24 Joseph said to his brothers, "I'm about to die. God will certainly take care of you and bring you out of this land to the land he promised to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."
