JOSEPH AS A TYPE OF CHRIST: Into the Pit

In this episode, "Joseph as a type of Jesus Christ: Into the Pit," we see Joseph as one person in the Old Testament who foreshadowed the life of our Lord Jesus Christ the most. The narratives parallel key aspects, including being falsely accused and betrayed by family members. Joseph is sold into slavery by his brothers, mirroring Jesus betrayal by Judas Iscariot; both were sold at the price of a slave and were made slaves. Joseph and Jesus both ultimately rose to power, where they were able to save many People. Even though Joseph's brothers intended evil, God used their actions to bring about greater good, demonstrating God's ultimate control over events, just as He did after the jews crucified Jesus.
