“And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.”
After burying his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, together with his brothers and all the others who had gone with him to bury his father. The return to Egypt after the burial is the fulfillment of Joseph's promise to Pharaoh — I will return. The application: the covenant person who promises to return, returns. The covenant obligation to Pharaoh is kept as faithfully as the covenant obligation to Jacob.
