📖 Description
"This section of material is the final portion of the book of Genesis—the book of beginnings.
Genesis 37-50 is the story of Joseph and the entrance into Egypt. This final section of Genesis explains to us why we find the things that we do at the beginning of Exodus. The Bible does not start at Mount Sinai when God gave the Ten Commandments. Genesis has shown that God is the Creator, and it shows the family through which God is working: Abraham, a man of faith, coming on through to Isaac and Jacob. Now we come to the spreading out. We see 12 men, the ancestors of the children of Israel, particularly, focusing in on Joseph. It was through Joseph that the birthright was to come. We see how the promises were expanded out, becoming more and more specific. We pick up the story. Joseph came into Egypt as a slave in 1704 B.C. and in 1691 B.C., he was made second in the kingdom because of the interpretation of Pharaoh’s dream. In 1682 B.C.,
the second year of the famine, his family joined Joseph in Egypt. He rose to prominence in the time of the Hyksos Dynasty. This was a dynasty that had its origin outside of Egypt. They controlled only around the Nile area." Read More!!
