The Key Word — Πίστει, pistisgenerated
The word πίστις (pistis) is a feminine noun meaning faith, derived from the verb πείθω (to persuade). It encompasses trust and confidence in God, as seen in various New Testament contexts, including Matthew 8:10 and Romans 1:8.
In this verse, Joseph's faith is highlighted as he expresses his confidence in God's promise of deliverance for the Israelites, even as he faces death. His actions reflect a deep trust in God's plan.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions about his bones.' This wording is consistent across several translations.
However, variations appear in how different translations handle specific terms. For example, τελευτῶν is rendered as 'dying' in YLT while KJV uses 'he died'. Similarly, ἐξόδου is translated as 'departure' in ASV but as 'exodus' in BSB.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is centered around the verb ἐμνημόνευσεν, he made mention, with Joseph as the subject. The structure includes two key actions: making mention and giving instructions, both of which are linked by the conjunction καὶ.
The sentence is complex, with several noun phrases describing the subjects of Joseph's mention and instructions, specifically regarding the Israelites and his bones.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἐξόδου is used in the Septuagint to translate the Hebrew word for 'departure' or 'going out', as seen in Exodus 13:19. It connects Joseph's faith to the broader narrative of Israel's deliverance.
μνημονεύω appears in the Septuagint as a translation for the Hebrew word for 'remember', highlighting the importance of memory in the faith traditions of the Israelites.

This example of faith in the promise and clinging to the hope which it held forth needs no comment.

Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.

πίστις (pistis) is a feminine noun meaning faith, belief, or trust, derived from the verb πείθω (to persuade). It encompasses a range of meanings, primarily focusing on religious faith in God or Christ, and includes concepts of fidelity and assurance. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, often linked to salvation and the Christian faith, as seen in verses like Matthew 8:10 and Romans 1:8.

6. Conclusion
In the Old Testament (the King James Version) the word occurs only twice: De 32:20 ('emun); Hab 2:4 ('emunah). In the latter the Revised Version (British and American) places in the margin the alternative rendering, "faithfulness." In the New Testament it is of very frequent occurrence, always representing pistis, with one exception in the King James Version (not the Revised Version (British and American)), Heb 10:23, where it represents elpis, "hope."
1. Etymology:
The history of the English word is rather interesting than important; use and contexts, alike for it and its Hebrew and Greek parallels, are…
Faith
Faith is in general the persuasion of the mind that a certain statement is true (Phil. 1:27; 2 Thess. 2:13). Its primary idea is trust. A thing is true, and therefore worthy of trust. It admits of many degrees up to full assurance of faith, in accordance with the evidence on which it rests.
Faith is the result of teaching (Rom. 10:14-17). Knowledge is an essential element in all faith, and is sometimes spoken of as an equivalent to faith (John 10:38; 1 John 2:3). Yet the two are distinguished in this respect, that faith includes in it assent, which is an act of the will in addition to the act of the understanding.…
The assent of the understanding to any truth. Religious faith is assent to the truth of divine revelation and of the events and doctrines contained in it. This may be merely historical, without producing any effect on our lives and conversation; and it is then a dead faith, such as even the devils have. But a living or saving faith not only believes the great doctrines of religion as true, but embraces them with the heart and affections; and is thus the source of sincere obedience to the divine will, exhibited in the life and conversation. Faith in Christ is a grace wrought in the heart by the Holy Spirit, whereby we receive Christ as our Savior, our Prophet, Priest, and King, and love and obey him as such. This living faith in Christ is the means of salvation-not meritoriously, but instrumentally. Without it there can be no forgiveness of sins, and no holiness of life; and they who are…

The Greek word Ἰωσήφ (Iōsēph) refers to Joseph, a name associated with several figures in the Bible. It includes Joseph, the son of Jacob; Joseph, the husband of Mary; and Joseph of Arimathea, among others. The entries note various genealogical connections and roles, with references in the New Testament such as Matthew 1:16 and John 4:5. There is no significant disagreement among the lexicons regarding its meaning.

Joseph
Remover or increaser. (1.) The elder of the two sons of Jacob by Rachel (Gen. 30:23, 24), who, on the occasion of his birth, said, “God hath taken away [Heb. ‘asaph] my reproach.” “The Lord shall add [Heb. yoseph] to me another son” (Gen. 30:24). He was a child of probably six years of age when his father returned from Haran to Canaan and took up his residence in the old patriarchal town of Hebron. “Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age,” and he “made him a long garment with sleeves” (Gen. 37:3, R.V. marg.), i.e., a garment long and full, such as was worn by the children of nobles. This seems to be the correct rendering of the words. The phrase, however, may also be…
(increase). The elder of the two sons of Jacob by Rachel. He was born in Padan-aram (Mesopotamia), probably about B.C. 1746. He is first mentioned when a youth, seventeen years old. Joseph brought the evil report of his brethren to his father, and they hated him because his father loved him more than he did them, and had shown his preference by making a dress which appears to have been a long tunic with sleeves, worn by youths and maidens of the richer class. (Genesis 37:2) He dreamed a dream foreshadowing his future power, which increased the hatred of his brethren. (Genesis 37:5-7) He was sent by his father to visit his brothers, who were tending flocks in the fields of Dothan. They resolved to kill him, but he was saved by Reuben, who persuaded the brothers to cast Joseph into…
1. The son of Jacob and his beloved Rachel, born in Mesopotamia, Ge 30:22-24, B. C. 1747. He is memorable for the wonderful providence of God, which raised him from a prison to be the grandvizier of Egypt, and made him the honored means of saving countless human lives. His history is one of the most pleasing and instructive in the Bible; and is related in language inimitably natural, simple, and touching. It is too beautiful for abridgment, and too familiar to need rehearsal. It throws much light on the superintending providence of God, as embracing all things, great and small in the perpetual unfolding of his universal plan. No narrative in the Bible more strikingly illustrates the protective and elevating power of the fear of God, and its especial value for the young. To behold this lovely image of filial piety and unwavering…

τελευτάω, transliterated as teleutao, means to finish or complete, particularly in the context of life, often signifying death. It can also imply coming to an end or being fulfilled.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἔξοδος (i.e., *exodos*) is composed of the prefix ἔξ (out) and ὁδός (way). It generally means a departure or exit, often used in a metaphorical sense to refer to death. The New Testament employs it in contexts relating to both physical exits and the end of life, notably in Luke 9:31 and 2 Peter 1:15.
ἔξ-οδος, -ου, ὁ
(< ὁδός),
[in LXX chiefly for מוֹצָא also חוּץ, etc. ;]
a going out, departure: He 11:22; of death, Lk 9:31, II Pe 1:15.†
ἔξοδος, -ov, ἡ. (ὁδός, exit, i. 6. departure: Heb. xi. 22; metaph. ἡ ἔξοδός twos the close of one’s career, one’s final fate, Lk. ix. 31; departure from life, decease: 2 Pet. i. 15, as in Sap. iii. 2; vii. 6; [Philo de caritate § 4]; with addition of τοῦ ζῆν, Joseph. antt. 4, 8,2; [of τοῦ βίου, Just. dial. c, Tryph. ὃ 1057." ἐξολοθρεύω and (acc. to the reading best attested by the oldest Mss. of the Sept. and received by LT Tr WH [see ὀλοθρεύω ]) ἐξολεθρεύω:: fut. pass. ἐξολοθρευθήσομαι; to destroy out of its place, destroy utterly, to extrpate: ἐκ tev λαοῦ, Acts iii. 23. (Often in the Sept., and in the O. T. Apoer., and in Test. xii. Patr.; Joseph. antt. 3, 11, 1; 11, 6, 6; hardly in native Grk. writ.)
ἔξοδος. For ἔξοδος in contrast with εἴσοδος see s.v. εἴσοδος, and note further P Leid R4 where eJiodSou κ[αὶ] ἐξόδου refer to “‘income”’ and ‘‘ expenditure ’’: so Mzchel 1001%%- 44 (c, B.C. 200). Similarly ἐξοδιάζω and ἐξοδιασμός are common = ‘pay’? and ‘‘payment.’’ Cf. MGr ἔξοδα, ‘‘expenses,”’ ἐξοδεύω, Eodevw, ξοδιάζω, “‘spend.’’ In BGU IV. 1105%4 (c. B.C. 10) ἔξοδος -- ““ divorce,’’ in 24. 1. 168118 (a.p. 169) = ‘‘judicial decision,’’ and in P Oxy XII. 1417 (early iv/a.D.) apparently = ‘* voyage.’’ For the word = ‘‘death,”’ as in Lk 931, 2 Pet 115, see the Will of Abraham, Bishop of Hermonthis, about the end of vi/A.p.—P Lond 7757 (=I. p. 234, Chrest. 11. p. 372) κελεύω μετὰ τὴν ἐμὴν ἔξοδον τοῦ βίου τὴν περιστολὴν τοῦ ἐμοῦ σώματος κτλ., and cf.

Exodus
The great deliverance wrought for the children of Isreal when they were brought out of the land of Egypt with “a mighty hand and with an outstretched arm” (Ex 12:51; Deut. 26:8; Ps 114; 136), about B.C. 1490, and four hundred and eighty years (1 Kings 6:1) before the building of Solomon’s temple.
The time of their sojourning in Egypt was, according to Ex. 12:40, the space of four hundred and thirty years. In the LXX., the words are, “The sojourning of the children of Israel which they sojourned in Egypt and in the land of Canaan was four hundred and thirty years;” and the Samaritan version reads, “The sojourning of the children of Israel and of their fathers…
(that is, going out [of Egypt]), the second book of the law or Pentateuch. Its author was Moses. It was written probably during the forty-years wanderings int he wilderness, between B.C. 1491 and 1451. It may be divided into two principal parts: Historical, chs. (Exodus 1:1-18; 27:1) ... and Legislative, chs. (Exodus 19:40; 38:1) The first part contains an account of the following particulars: the great increase of Jacob’s posterity in the land of Egypt, and their oppression under a new dynasty, which occupied the throne after the death of Joseph; the birth, education, flight and return of Moses; the ineffectual attempts to prevail upon Pharaoh to let the Israelites go; the successive signs and wonders, ending in the death of the first-born, by means of which the deliverance of…
Going out, the name of the second book of Moses and of the Bible; so called because it narrates the departure of the Israelites from Egypt. It comprises a period of about one hundred and forty-five years, from the death of Joseph to the erection of the tabernacle in the desert. The various topics of the book may be thus presented: (1.) The oppression of the Israelites, under the change of dynasty which sprung up after the death of Joseph: "There arose up another king, who knew not Joseph," Ex 1:8. The reference many believe is to the invasion of Egypt by the Hyksos, who are spoken of in secular history as having invaded Egypt probably about this period, and who held it in subjection for many years. The are termed shepherd-kings, and represented as coming from the east. (2.) The youth, education, patriotism, and flight of Moses,

Counted over the 33 Old Testament verses where this Greek word stands: which Hebrew word keeps standing there too. A correspondence of verses rather than a word-by-word alignment, so read the percentage as strength of evidence, not as a claim about any single verse.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.

The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

The Greek word υἱός (i.e., *huios*) means 'son' and is used broadly to refer to biological offspring, descendants, or figuratively to denote kinship. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, including titles for Jesus, such as 'Son of God' and 'Son of Man', as well as in expressions of spiritual relationships, like 'sons of God' referring to believers. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement on its meanings.

Israel
The name conferred on Jacob after the great prayer-struggle at Peniel (Gen. 32:28), because “as a prince he had power with God and prevailed.” (See JACOB.) This is the common name given to Jacob’s descendants. The whole people of the twelve tribes are called “Israelites,” the “children of Israel” (Josh. 3:17; 7:25; Judg. 8:27; Jer. 3:21), and the “house of Israel” (Ex. 16:31; 40:38).
This name Israel is sometimes used emphatically for the true Israel (Ps. 73:1: Isa. 45:17; 49:3;
(the prince that prevails with God). The name given, (Genesis 32:28) to Jacob after his wrestling with the angel, (Hosea 12:4) at Peniel. Gesenius interprets Israel "soldier of God." It became the national name of the twelve tribes collectively. They are so called in (Exodus 3:16) and afterward. It is used in a narrower sense, excluding Judah, in (1 Samuel 11:8; 2 Samuel 20:1; 1 Kings 12:16) Thenceforth it was assumed and accepted as the name of the northern kingdom. After the Babylonian captivity, the returned exiles resumed the name Israel as the designation of…
Who prevails with God, a name given to Jacob, after having wrestled with the Angel-Jehovah at Penuel. Ge 32:1,2,28,30 Ho 12:3. See JACOB. By the name Israel is sometimes understood all the posterity of Israel, the seed of Jacob, 1Co 10:18; sometimes all true believers, his spiritual seed, Ro 9:6; and sometimes the kingdom of Israel, or the ten tribes, as distinct from the kingdom of Judah.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ὀστέον (lemma: osteon) means 'bone' and appears in various forms, including the contracted ὀστοῦν. It is used in the New Testament in passages like John 19:36 and Luke 24:39. The term has a range of uses in classical literature and the Septuagint, often referring to bones in both literal and metaphorical contexts.
ὀστέον, contr. ὀστοῦν, gen. -ov, τό, [akin to Lat. os, ossis; Curtius § 213, cf. p. 41], a bone: Jn. xix. 36; plur. ὀστέα, Lk. xxiv. 39; gen. ὀστέων, (on these uncontr. forms cf. [WH.

P Lond 1170 verso 485 (a.p. 258-259) (=III. p. 204) (ὄνοι) B ὑπὸ ὀστᾶ, ““2 (asses) laden with bones,” 26. 464° (iv/A.D.) (=I. p.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word ἐντέλλομαι (i.e., *entellomai*) means to command or enjoin. It is primarily used in the middle voice and can indicate giving orders or instructions, often with various grammatical constructions. In the New Testament, it appears in contexts such as Matthew 19:7 and Acts 1:2. The lexicons suggest it is synonymous with terms like κελεύω and παραγγέλλω, though with a focus on the content of the command.
