Jacob’s Journey to Egypt

1 So Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to aBeersheba, and offered sacrifices bto the God of his father Isaac.  
2 Then God spoke to Israel ain the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” And he said, “Here I am.”  
3 So He said, “I am God, athe God of your father; do not fear to go down to Egypt, for I will bmake of you a great nation there.  
4 aI will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also surely bbring you up again; and cJoseph will put his hand on your eyes.”  
5 Then aJacob arose from Beersheba; and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob, their little ones, and their wives, in the1 carts bwhich Pharaoh had sent to carry him.  
6 So they took their livestock and their goods, which they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to Egypt, aJacob and all his descendants with him.

Genesis 46:1-4

There is a similar call of Jacob. Jacob had started down to Egypt to see Joseph, but he had paused at Beersheba, being fearful of what might lie ahead.

God reassured him: “Jacob! Jacob!” “Here I am,” he replied. This revelation was all Jacob needed. The next verses picture him going on his way confidently and we do not read of his being fearful ever again.

Genesis 46:2-4

That was a very gentle way of telling Jacob that he was going to die there, and Joseph would close his eyelids.
