The story of Joseph is one of the great stories of the Bible! We have two more chapters to go and I promise you there is no surprise sad ending or cliffhanger. It’s a story full of drama, but one that ends well.
One piece of information that Joseph and brothers could not know, however, is what would happen in the future – not to them, but to those who will come after them. The story of the famine and the move of Jacob’s family to Egypt will set the stage for the second book of the Bible, Exodus. And what happens in Exodus will be a defining moment in the life of the nation of Israel.
For now, let’s just enjoy the story of Joseph.
