Final answer:

John 5:5 does not detail land near the plot given by Jacob to Joseph, but biblical narratives in Genesis describe the land Joseph received and subsequent Israelite history.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Bible passage referenced, John 5:5, does not explicitly describe what was near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph. However, the question seems to be conflating different biblical accounts. If we are considering the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Old Testament, Jacob indeed gave Joseph a plot of ground as mentioned in Genesis.

In the context of the New Testament, the Gospels do not detail land given by Jacob to Joseph but do tell stories of Jesus's ministry, crucifixion, and burial, with Joseph of Arimathea being involved in Jesus's burial.The land given to Joseph by Jacob is part of the narrative of Genesis, which includes the history of the Israelites, their move to Egypt, the enslavement of Hebrews, and the story of Moses.
