Gen
50:15-26. Knowing they had done wrong, Joseph's brothers
were overcome by a guilty conscience from which they
could not move past. Rather than seeking retribution,
Joseph—a type of Christ—treats his brothers in grace,
provides for them, and leaves matters to the Supreme
Court of Heaven. God worked the brothers' evil for His
good purposes. Joseph continued to remain in Egypt until
his death, trusting in God's plan that in time He would
cause them to leave.

Is climate
change anthropogenic? Jacob's Burial: Gen 50:1-18. The
Egyptians demonstrate their respect for Jacob by
embalming and mourning for him. He is buried in the
promised land by his sons. Despite the fact that Joseph
has not been vengeful toward his brothers, they don't
believe that he has truly forgiven them. Joseph
understood that everything was going according to God's
plan and purpose; his brothers, on the other hand,
failed to understand the spiritual life and fearing
Joseph, lied. Feeling sorry for his brothers Joseph
weeps.

Doctrine of
Grieving continued. Passages comforting the believer in
times of sorrow and distress. God provides for us that
we may recover and then be a comfort to others (2 Cor
1:4). With the loss of a loved one, we should not grieve
as those who have no hope (1 Thess 4:13ff). There is
going to be sorrow and soul pain, but God has provided
the solution and the means of recovery and
encouragement.

The May Flower
voyage remembered and writings from D. Webster. Doctrine
of Grieving: Gen 50:1-3. A look at Old & New Testament
words for grief and sorrow (e.g. saphad, abal, and lupeo)
with sample passages. Grieving and mourning are
scriptural, but we must not allow the sorrow to dominate
our thinking. Suffering and pain are a reminder that we
live in a fallen world and need the grace of God to
provide for us.

The Heart-Shield Bible of WW
II and President Roosevelt. The Doctrine of Dying Grace.
A byproduct of the faith-rest life, dying grace is a
special experience of peace and tranquility at death.
The time, manner and place of our death is not by chance
nor accidental, but determined by God. We can relax; God
has numbered our days, and our every heartbeat is in His
sovereign, loving hands. Angels guard and care for the
believer.

Gen 49:23-50:2. Jacob's Death,
and Doctrine of Preparation for Dying. Focused on
eternal things and the promises of God (esp. Abrahamic
Covenant), Jacob faced his death with peace. Like the
patriarch, we too have been given divine promises.
Mechanics of the Faith-Rest Life: Beginning with
claiming a promise and arriving at a doctrinal
conclusion, we can stabilize our soul in the midst of
problems. Eternal and earthly facets of preparing for
death.

Jacob's Last Will and
Testament concluded. Gen 49:27-28. Renamed "son of my
right hand," after Rachel died giving birth to him,
Benjamin was a favorite of Jacob and his final son.
Pictured as a ravenous wolf, the tribal prophecy
emphasizes ferocity in battle and military prowess,
later evidenced in the Book of Judges. What happened to
the ten northern tribes of Israel? Has their identify
remained?

Doctrine of Suicide. Is
suicide a superimposition of human volition over divine
volition? While there are times when it is right to take
a life (e.g. capital punishment), suicide is always
wrong; it is following Satan's plan, not God's. It is
the pinnacle of preoccupation with self and arrogance
taken to the extreme. Suicide prevention begins by safe
guarding your own soul. After the fall, life is not
without despair, but we must not lose heart.

Remembering Hiroshima. Gen 49:22-26. Joseph's Double
Blessing from Jacob. Targeted by his brothers, unjustly
imprisoned and forgotten, Joseph endured through
testing, remaining focused on God as his source of
strength and stability. Doctrine of the Essence of God:
10 Attributes reviewed. Titles for God: the Almighty,
the Shepherd (also Ps 23), Stone of Israel, and God of
your father.

Current events: climate
change, ISIS, and Israel. Gen 49:22. Joseph, firstborn
to Jacob and Rachel, receives the double blessing. Tired
of waiting on the Lord, Rachel attempts to solve her
barrenness through a surrogate (Gen 30). God opens her
womb on His time schedule, not hers. Jacob reminds
Joseph of the blessings that God has given him, despite
significant adversity, by referring to him as a
"fruitful bough".

Gen 49:13-16. Prophecy of
Jacob's Sons continued. Zebulun and Issachar—sons of
Leah and prosperous. Zebulun, "a place of haven", was
towards the sea and the tribal allotment where Jesus
conducted much of His ministry. Issachar is pictured as
a labor force, one day to be domineered by the
Canaanites & Assyrians. Dan, born to Bilhah, has a
tribal history revealing both wonderful achievements
(i.e. Oholiab) and gross disobedience (i.e. Samson).

Gen 49:5-12.
Jacob's Last Will & Testament continued. Though Simeon
and Levi's failure resulted in a prophecy of tribal
scatterings, God provided opportunity for recovery; and
the Levites, due their obedience (Ex 32), became the
nation's priests. Jacob praises Judah—the tribe of
future national and royal leadership, from whom will
arise the Eternal Ruler.

plenty.

Fearfully & Wonderfully Made:
When does life begin? Lent—does it have any spiritual

training. Gen 41:1-8. Pharaoh's Dream: The Fat & Gaunt

Gen 39:1-23. The Temptation of
Potiphar's Wife & Joseph's Resistance: Observations &
Lessons Learned. Joseph ended up in prison, not because
he failed, but because he did everything right. If he
was to serve as God's leader, he must prove himself
faithful to God, passing people and prosperity testing.
How did Joseph overcome temptation? By focusing on God
and God's plan for his life.

LBJ's War on Poverty. Gen
39:1-6. Joseph is taken down to Egypt where he is
purchased as Potiphar's slave. Rather than being bitter,
Joseph focuses on the grace of God. He learns humility

him for leadership. Joseph demonstrates faithfulness and
a dedicated work ethic, and is a remarkable testimony to
Potiphar who attributes his success to Joseph's God.

her father-in-law has neglected her, Tamar takes matters
into her own hands and changes from her widow's garments
to pose as a temple prostitute. Judah self-righteously

adultery. God takes their mistakes and uses them for His
purposes, carrying on the line of Christ through them.

established as a nation.

Gen 34:1-31. Desiring to see
the daughters of the land, Dinah is seen by Shechem and
raped. Jacob responds to the injustice with passivity;
his sons, divorced from divine absolutes, respond with
brutal vengeance. This passage is a warning that
believers must not assimilate into the cosmic system and
reveals why God needed to move the family to Egypt.

Gen 33:1-20. Jacob &
Esau's Reconciliation. Instead of seeking vengeance, as

Gen 32:1-32. Jacob's
Encounters with Esau and the Angel of the LORD. Despite
God's assurance to Jacob for divine protection, he fears
Esau on his return to the land. Instead of trusting God,
Jacob helps Him with a plan to appease his brother with
gifts. He wrestles with God for control over his life
and needs to learn that God will fight for him. Jacob's
injured hip establishes his new normal.

unannounced from Haran and is pursued; but God
superintends events and protects him.

us; God holds us in His hands.

Ex 21:22-25. What
does the Mosaic Law instruct regarding a premature birth
caused by two men fighting who strike a woman, and yet
the child is unharmed? In this instance a fine was
imposed. Examination of the Hebrew indicates that
although she has received a blow, she remains fertile.
Only in the case of a child born who has incurred injury
does the Lex Talionis apply (v. 23); there was no
restitution for a stillborn. In the womb is biological
life only; it is not until birth that adjudication can
be imposed.

Gen1:1-8. The Space-Time Continuum, reviewed. God's

planet because of Satan's sin. G/HS then prepared the

into existence. Days one and two elaborated: light and
