Genesis: The Beginning
Begging Brothers 2-7-16
Genesis 42
Yesterday, we read about how Joseph went from the prison to the palace by interpreting Pharaoh’s dream; seven years of plenty and seven years of famine. Today, we will find Joseph during the seven years of famine. He is distributing food to the needy; the famine is far reaching beyond Egypt. As he looks out into the crowd gathered, Joseph immediately recognizes his ten older brothers waiting in the food line; they had traveled from Canaan for provisions.
