THE STORY OF JOSEPH - lesson 12
GOD WORKS ALL THINGS TOGETHER FOR GOOD
TO BRING ABOUT HIS PURPOSES
Joseph - the prototype of Jesus
The TORAH (תּוֹרָה) - the first five books of the Bible - is often mistranslated by many as law. In Hebrew, however, we find …
The word "Torah" in Hebrew is derived from the root YERAH ירה, which in the hif'il conjugation means 'to guide' or 'to teach'. The meaning of the word is therefore "teaching", "doctrine", or "instruction"; the commonly accepted translation as "law" gives a wrong impression. (Rabinowitz, Louis; Harvey, Warren (2007). "Torah". In Berenbaum, Michael; Skolnik, Fred (eds.). Encyclopedia Judaica. Vol. 20 (2nd ed.). Detroit: Macmillan Reference. pp. 39–46)
As we continue our study of the saga of Joseph we come to Gen. 42:1-5. Jacob sons ten of his sons to Egypt to buy grain. Joseph is about to confront his brothers again after what they did to him more than a decade before. But, something is different. We begin to see God’s hand in restoring Joseph to his brothers and to his father, Jacob. We begin to see God working all things together, no matter what the circumstances, for good so as His purposes and plans are established.
But, the Lord also is telling us, teaching us, in His TORAH (תּוֹרָה) – His books of teaching and instruction – that this is a prototype of something coming, the days of the Messiah. For as Joseph is reunited with his brothers who rejected him, so too Jesus. He too will be reunified with His brothers, all of Israel. Paul got it. Paul writes that one day all Israel will be saved, all Israel will be disciples of Yeshua. So, no matter how bad things look or even if things are good, no matter. God will use all things to work together for the good, for His ultimate purposes. This is the lesson Yahvay (יהוה) our Lord is trying to get through to us in the saga of Joseph.
Check out the video (link below) that introduces us to this amazing connection between Joseph and Jesus. What is so awesome is God inspired Moses to write about Joseph 3400 years ago. Little did Moses know how his writing would help us today to see how God predicted His ultimate SAVIOR OF THE WORLD from the story of Joseph as the prototype.

Also, here's link to an awesome article at the website, "Hebrew4Christians." I linked you to the pages at this website that also give even more awesome connections between Yosef and Yeshua.
