17 Thus shall ye speak to Joseph: Oh forgive, I pray thee, the transgression of thy brethren, and their sin! for they did evil to thee. And now, we pray thee, forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.

6515. 'Saying, Behold, I am dying' means that it - the Church - has come to an end. This is clear from the meaning of 'dying' as existing no more, dealt with in 494, and as the final period of the Church when it breathes its last, 2908, 2917, 2923.
