  • Daniel on Genesis 46 - 10 years ago
    Although it is written the English interpretation as to the fact that there were three score and ten I would like to point out that in fact 70 went down in to Egypt. Leah and her team = 33 in all ( but we have to cross off, Err and Onan, who were kill for their transgressions ) =30 Zilpah and her offspring = 16 ….Bilhah and her line = 14 and Rachel/Benyamin = 70.
    All in all that amounts to 68 ……. Yocheveth , Moses' future mother was born between the borders of Canaan and Egypt = 69 ………….and the last but certainly not the least G-D….after all He promised Jacob that He would not abandon him and therefore went down into Egypt too , thus closing the list at 70.
