moses 5-4-3 continued
session 2
in session one the goal was 45 minutes from pre-covenant until moses in exodus 3. but there was way too much so i ended with josep.
session 2 josep
14 chapters about josep
i skip the family of esau 36 to focus on josep. josep's dreams 37 show his brothers bow to him. juda has twin sons 38.27 and messiah from perez [=phares]. some extremists say "the whole new testament is a lie" so i ask is isac the son of abraham? is perez the son of juda? they admit some truth.
josep resists temptation- an important lesson in chapter 39, for us! he is imprisoned for the accusation [pending an investigation?] there he explains dreams to ministers 40, who advise paro to call josep to explain egypt-king dreams. josep explains the king's dreams 41 and egyptians prepare to store food.
jacob sent sons to buy food 42, and josep imprisons one brother until they bring benjamin. they return with benjamin 43, and hide a silver cup 44, in benjamin's bag. juda begs "i will be slave" 44.33 only free benjamin SHOW demonstrate a "turn" to repent for pushing josep in the pit and paining jacob. we are taught that after the one who hurt us turns, we should forgive luke 17.3 because that is how god forgives us.
some people say "you must forgive all" and it is obnoxious to rely on that to hurt people, and also not the way of god. it is cruel to say "well you must forgive me anyway" the way of god is a person must turn. no matter which issue.
it is insensitive to tell a person who was hurt "stop complaining and forgive them" that is cruel. listen patiently and show compassion. the fact is: a person is not forgiven by god nor by man until they repent which means "turn" their ways: gods plan luke 17.3 what shall we say about parents who circumcise their child with cruel pain and do not turn? insisting the grandchildren should be cut also! cut them young before they can say "no" and it is accomplished- called "fait accompli" then it is too late and say "too late! nothing to do about it now" this is cruel. and devilishly adding "you must forgive all" and we will say the same thing when he understands that a piece is missing.
seeing the change in his brothers josep reveals himself! and invites father 45-46 famine in egypt 47 but they had prepared. later jacob blessed sons of josep 48.15 but before blessing jacobs own sons.
the book of genesis ends with the deaths of jacob and josep. the children of israel=jacob are slaves [exodus 1] and moses was born 2. moses is the prophet who heard god speak from the burning bush [exodus 3 and acts 7.30] moses had two sons, did he circumcise them? assuming based on his abrahamic geneaology- i say confidently YES, he circumcised both of his sons when they were born just like isac, despite the absence in the text.
from the burning bush an interesting scene, god said "save israel and lead them to land of canaan 3.8
on the way back to egypt, the lord wanted to kill him. him? who?? the text is not clear however from the words near it, and the act of moses' wife to her son- we know the lord afflicted her son. luckily for me niv footnote adds the word "son" to clarify.
when i was a kid i was taught god tried to kill moses and that does not match context of god sending moses a few lines before! if god's plan is to send moses then certainly the lord is not killing moses, so him is her son. the word "vayihi" is a problem- who was in the hotel? many not singular! it does not mean moses like the inaccurate claim but the event was in the hotel.
what did zipora do? she cut her son. here there is the word "cut" so my claim, above, that moses cut his sons has been refuted. the fact that zipora cut her son shows that moses did not cut his sons and even zipora only cut one. we should be like moses and not cut our sons.
note the planned end of session one five minutes behind schedule.
