"Jacob Blessing the Children of Joseph" is a 1656 painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, one of the most prominent figures in the history of Western art. The painting, which is an oil on canvas, depicts the biblical scene from Genesis 48 where the patriarch Jacob blesses his grandsons, Ephraim and Manasseh, the sons of Joseph. This scene is significant in the Judeo-Christian tradition as it represents the moment when Jacob bestows the inheritance of God's promise onto the younger generation, deviating from the custom of granting this privilege to the firstborn son.

In Rembrandt's interpretation, the aged Jacob is shown on his deathbed, laying his hands upon the heads of Ephraim and Manasseh, who are accompanied by their father, Joseph. The painting is noted for its emotional depth, masterful use of chiaroscuro, and the psychological complexity conveyed through the expressions and gestures of the figures. Rembrandt's ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of dignity and humanity is evident in this work, as is his skillful handling of light to highlight the spiritual significance of the event.

The painting measures 175 cm × 210 cm and is part of the collection of the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin, Germany. "Jacob Blessing the Children of Joseph" is considered one of Rembrandt's significant late works, reflecting his continued engagement with biblical themes and his introspective approach to painting during the final years of his career. The work has been studied extensively for its artistic and historical context, contributing to the understanding of Rembrandt's oeuvre and the cultural milieu of the Dutch Golden Age.
