# General Information:
|
|
|
|
Jacob continues to bless Joseph and his descendants.
|
|
|
|
# the ancient mountains
|
|
|
|
The meaning of the original language is not certain. Some Bible translations have "my ancestors" instead of "ancient mountains."
|
|
|
|
# May they be on the head of Joseph
|
|
|
|
Here "they" refers to the blessings of his father.
|
|
|
|
# upon the crown of the head of the prince of his brothers
|
|
|
|
Jacob desires for these blessings to be passed on to even the most important of his descendants. Alternate translation: "on the head of the most important of Joseph's descendants" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
