Daniel 11:3-4 English Standard Version

3 Then a mighty king shall arise, who shall rule with great dominion and do as he wills. 4 And as soon as he has arisen, his kingdom shall be broken and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to the authority with which he ruled, for his kingdom shall be plucked up and go to others besides these.

One definition of posterity is succeeding generations. Posterity ends when generations fail. Another way of saying that is to the victor goes the spoils. History is rewritten by the winners to tell their stories the way they want to be remembered.

The Pharaohs had their tombs lined with ancient hieroglyphics that told archeologists only what the Pharaohs wanted history to hear. That does not mean everything written is true. Unraveling  lies is extremely difficult so for the sake of posterity let us ask the only pertinent question, where is the succeeding generation of the Pharaohs? They are gone, their posterity is lost and all we have to know of them is an image of what they thought of themselves.

Here are the words of Joseph, son of Jacob also called Israel.

He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
