1 These are the names of the Israelites who went to Egypt with Jacob, each bringing his family members: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin, Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher. Seventy persons in all generated by Jacob's seed. Joseph was already in Egypt. 6 Then Joseph died, and all his brothers - that whole generation. But the children of Israel kept on reproducing. They were very prolific - a population explosion in their own right - and the land was filled with them.
