Reading for July 5th

Read Genesis 42.1-25. In 42.1-25: Joseph's brothers seek food in Egypt.  In verse 4: Benjamin is the youngest of Jacob's sons.  He is the full brother that Joseph has since Benjamin and Joseph are the only children of Jacob's favored wife, Rachel. In verse 6: Joseph's brothers unknowingly fulfill the prediction in Joseph's earlier two dreams in 37.5-11: They bowed themselves before him. In verse 22: A reckoning for his blood assumes a moral order in which murder or other wrongful actions will bring inevitable punishment (4.10; 9-5). Comments or Questions..
