They rose up to comfort him, does not imply any information from them of Joseph's being alive: the contrary is to be evidently inferred from Jacob's refusing to be comforted, and saying, I will go down into the grave unto my son, mourning; i.e.. I will continue to mourn till I go to that mansion of departed souls, that region of the dead, where my son is; see ch. Genesis 25:8. Isaiah 14:19-20. Ezekiel 32:21.Job 3:17.
