SEV Biblia, Chapter 13:19
Tomó también consigo Moisés los huesos de José, el cual había juramentado a los hijos de Israel, diciendo: Dios ciertamente os visitará, y haréis subir mis huesos de aquí con vosotros.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 13:19
Verse 19. Moses took the bones of Joseph] See note on "Gen. l. 25". It is supposed that the Israelites carried with them the bones or remains of all the twelve sons of Jacob, each tribe taking care of the bones of its own patriarch, while Moses took care of the bones of Joseph. St. Stephen expressly says, Acts vii. 15, 16, that not only Jacob, but the fathers were carried from Egypt into Sychem; and this, as Calmet remarks, was the only opportunity that seems to have presented itself for doing this: and certainly the reason that rendered it proper to remove the bones of Joseph to the promised land, had equal weight in reference to those of the other patriarchs. see note on "Gen. xlix. 29".
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 17-20 - There were two ways from Egypt to Canaan. One was only a few days journey; the other was much further about, through the wilderness, an that was the way in which God chose to lead his people Israel. The Egyptians were to be drowned in the Red sea; the Israelites were to be humbled and proved in the wilderness. God's way is the right way though it seems about. If we think he leads not his people the neares way, yet we may be sure he leads them the best way, and so it wil appear when we come to our journey's end. The Philistines were powerfu enemies; it was needful that the Israelites should be prepared for the wars of Canaan, by passing through the difficulties of the wilderness Thus God proportions his people's trials to their strength, 1Co 10:13 They went up in good order. They went up in five in a rank, some; i five bands, so others, which it seems rather to their faith and hope that God would bring them to Canaan, in expectation of which the carried these bones with them while in the desert.
