Transcription: The book of Joshua ends with an act of deep symbolism. The Israelites finally buried the remains of Joseph. For well over four centuries, those remains had been preserved in Egypt in anticipation of the Israelites' return to their homeland. And during the 40 years of wilderness wanderings, the tribes had carried Joseph's bones as a treasured reminder of their past. Now, at last, Abraham's descendants had come home and even the dead could rest in peace.
