Augustine of Hippo : WHY DID JACOB TELL JOSEPH ABOUT THE PLACE WHERE HE BURIED RACHEL'S MOTHER? — Jacob wanted to point out to his son Joseph, as if he did not know, where and when he buried his mother, also with his brothers. But if Joseph was so small, he could not even worry about it or remember it, what reason is there for him to tell him now? The motive may be to remember that Joseph's mother was buried where Christ was to be born. [ — QUESTIONS ON GENESIS, Q. 164 (tr. J. Litteral, draft)
