Why would Joseph take such an Extreme Measure | Genesis 44 & 45 | Lesson 38

ALWAYS wondered why Joseph didn't ever make an attempt to go see Jacob. Never made any sense bc he could have easily done just that! Thank you so much for the FULL picture!

It's like saying why Jesus didn't resolve the matter of salvation and eternal iife once and forever the first time He came to earth...think about it. Right now, we're passing through a hardship never seen, and mankind is going worse during the last 2,000 years, but we have had the reality to be born and the hope of eternal life. We have had the once in a time opportunity to know there's a true God, the creator of all things, and His purpose of doing so.

Hi Proclaiming the sentence of death goes back much further than the brothers themselves! They didn’t originate it! We see in Jacob’s life that when he left Laban his father in law, that RACHEL stole her father’s idols and hid them in her things unbeknownst to Jacob, who swore to Laban that whomever they were found with shall die! SO IT WAS STANDARD PRACTICE TO QUIT A GROUP FROM GUILT BY THE DEATH OF ONE EVEN DOWN TO CHRIST’S OWN TIME WHEN CAIAPHAS PROPHESIED THAT ‘IT IS BETTER FOR ONE ( Christ) TO DIE THAN THE WHOLE NATION ( BY THE SWORD OF ROME)
