In 2298 AM (1706 BC), Naphtali came to [[Egypt]] permanently, having visited Egypt twice before to buy grain during the famine of 2296-2302 AM (1708-1701 BC). He was 47 years old at the time and had four named sons: [[Jahzeel]], [[Guni]], [[Jezer]], and [[Shillem]].

In his deathbed blessing of Naphtali, [[Jacob]] said this: {{Bible quote|Naphtali is a doe set free that bears beautiful fawns.|book=Genesis|chap=49|verses=21}}
