The Death of Joshua

29 It came about after these things that Joshua the son of Nun , the servant of the Lord , died , being one hundred and ten years old . 30 And they buried him in the territory of his inheritance in Timnath-serah , which is in the hill country of Ephraim , on the north of Mount Gaash . 31 Israel served the Lord all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who survived e e Joshua , and had known all the deeds of the Lord which He had done for Israel .

Joseph's Bones Buried at Shechem

32 Now they buried the bones of Joseph , which the sons of Israel brought up from Egypt , at Shechem , in the piece of ground which Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for one hundred pieces of money ; and they became the inheritance of Joseph's sons .

The Death of Eleazar

33 And Eleazar the son of Aaron died ; and they buried him at Gibeah of Phinehas his son , which was given him in the hill country of Ephraim .

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Joshua 24:29-33

Commentary on Joshua 24:29-33

(Read Joshua 24:29-33)

Joseph died in Egypt, but gave commandment concerning his bones, that they should not rest in their grave till Israel had rest in the land of promise. Notice also the death and burial of Joshua, and of Eleazar the chief priest. The most useful men, having served their generation, according to the will of God, one after another, fall asleep and see corruption. But Jesus, having spent and ended his life on earth more effectually than either Joshua or Joseph, rose from the dead, and saw no corruption. And the redeemed of the Lord shall inherit the kingdom he prepared for them from the foundation of the world. They will say in admiration of the grace of Jesus, Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father, to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
