Thanks.

I never knew that they took Joseph's bones back with them.

Genesis 50

24 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die. But God will surely come to your aid and take you up out of this land to the land he promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” 25 And Joseph made the Israelites swear an oath and said, “God will surely come to your aid, and then you must carry my bones up from this place.”

It was his wish to be buried in the Promised Land.

There's a lot of stuff in that bible you may not be aware of...
