Genesis 48 Joseph Receives a Double Portion

Update: 2025-12-09

Description

Jacob/Israel blesses Joseph's two sons Ephraim and Manasseh as Jacob would bless his other sons and grants them lands in the land of Canaan. Jacob blesses the younger to be greater than the older. St. Augustine and St. Cyril comment on the meaning of this blessing. We discuss Haydock's commentary as well.
