'Embalmed' in the Bible

Then Joseph ordered his servants the physicians to embalm (mummify) his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel (Jacob).

Now forty days were required for this, for that is the customary number of days [of preparation] required for embalming. And the Egyptians wept and grieved for him [in public mourning as they would for royalty] for seventy days.

So Joseph died, being a hundred and ten years old; and they embalmed him and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
