Pharaoh asked Jacob, “How old are you?”
Abraham took his final breath, dying at a good old age. After having lived a full, content life, he joined his ancestors.
Later, Joseph brought Jacob into the house and presented him before Pharaoh. And Jacob gave Pharaoh a blessing.
Jacob answered, “My earthly journey has been one hundred and thirty years. My years have been few and hard, but it doesn’t compare to the length of the earthly journeys of my fathers.”
Jacob lived in Egypt for seventeen years and lived a total of one hundred and forty-seven years.
