Joseph, His Brothers and the Christ Figure

About this episode

The episode explores the relationship between Joseph and his brothers, the implications of their actions, and the prophetic connections to the Messiah.

Found an amazing piece from Instagram talking about the relationship between Joseph and His brothers and the enmity between them which led to the sale of Joseph into slavery in Egypt. She presents the story in such an inquisitive manner as though she does not believe it. You are taken on a journey with her through the overwhelming evidence that seems to point to the impossibility or the odds that are stacked up against any of this being true and how it unfolds through the ages from Pre-Egyptian times to the reign of David and Solomon to the Split in the kingdom and finally the captivity. It is here that a prophecy is introduced almost detailing to the very letter what will happen to the promised Messiah in his betrayal to the eventual uniting of the scattered and divided Nation of Israel. I use this material to try to connect these prophecies with blessings first from Jacob to his sons and then to Moses with the tribes and finally small bits about Balaam and Balak.
