In sorrow to Sheol; he went down to Sheol in sorrow

In sorrow to Sheol; he went down to Sheol in sorrow

He died while steeped in sorrow and grief. An end of life marked by sadness and bitter fate (he reached the grave in a state of sorrow; “Sheol” means the world beneath the ground).

(“And he said: My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead and he alone remains; if harm befalls him on the journey you take, you will bring down my gray hair in sorrow to Sheol” – Genesis 42:38, Jacob to his sons)

("וַיֹּאמֶר לֹא יֵרֵד בְּנִי עִמָּכֶם כִּי אָחִיו מֵת וְהוּא לְבַדּוֹ נִשְׁאָר וּקְרָאָהוּ אָסוֹן בַּדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר תֵּלְכוּ בָהּ וְהוֹרַדְתֶּם אֶת שֵׂיבָתִי בְּיָגוֹן שְׁאוֹלָה" – בְּרֵאשִׁית מ״ב ל״ח, יַעֲקֹב לְבָנָיו)
