Chesed LeAvraham · Even Shetiya, Maayan 3, Chapter 24
1
נהר כד - בסוד למה משה לא נקבר בארץ ולא עלה עצמותיו, וליוסף עלה עצמותיו ולא גופו, וליעקב עלה גופו ממש:
River Kaf Dalet - The Secret of Why Moses Was Not Buried in the Land of Israel, His Bones Were Not Brought Up, and Why Joseph's Bones Were Brought Up but Not His Body, and Why Jacob's Actual Body Was Brought Up:
2
והטעם כי יוסף לא נקבר גופו בארץ רק עצמותיו, הוא כי יצאו ממנו טיפת הזרע על דעת אותה הגוי', אך לפי שלא (השלים) [נשלם] המעשה נקברו עצמותיו בארץ. אמנם משה אף על פי שלא יצאו ממנו טיפת זרע עם כל זה לקח אשה כושית כנזכר בדברי הימים של משה ולקחה כבעל עם אשתו, ולכן אפילו עצמותיו לא זכו לקבור בארץ ישראל הנקרא אשה יראת י"י. ויעקב לפי שבאה לו תמנע פלגש עשו שישאנה ולא רצה לכן נקברו עצמותיו וגופו, מדברי הר"ר קלונימוס זלה"ה. וזמש"ל:
The reason why Joseph's body was not buried in the land, only his bones, is because he emitted a drop of seed with the intention of that foreign woman (Potiphar's wife). However, since the act was not completed, his bones were allowed to be buried in the land of Israel.
3
As for Moses, although he did not emit a drop of seed, he did take a Cushite woman, as mentioned in the chronicles of Moses, and took her as a husband takes his wife. Therefore, even his bones did not merit burial in the land of Israel, which is called "a woman who fears the Lord."
4
Jacob, on the other hand, because Timna, the concubine of Esau, came to him asking to be married and he refused, therefore both his bones and his body were buried in the land. This is from the words of Rabbi Kalonymus, of blessed memory. And this is what has been written.
