The study of the Bible in its historical context - with a focus on the archaeology, history, geography, customs , culture, and even the languages of the ancient Middle East. WE ask what did they understand THEN - the original intent of the Lord - so that we can expand and enrich our understanding NOW and thus become true disciples of Adonai Yeshua as in John 8:31-32.

THE STORY OF JOSEPH - lesson 21
"I'M IN GOD'S PLACE"
Joseph - the prototype of Jesus
As I mentioned in the podcast I am giving you links to study Egyptian mummification and links on the Book of the Dead. Here are the links …
1) Article from the Smithsonian on Egyptian Mummification - https://www.si.edu/spotlight/ancient-egypt/mummies
2) A short but excellent video overviewing Egyptian “salvation” from the Scroll of the Dead -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yv_MXNYbAo
3) Article on the Book of the Dead - https://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/bod.htm
One thing you’ll learn is certain body parts are put in special jars as the person in mummified and before burial. The jars are called CANOPIC JARS and you can see a picture of them below (image is royalty free from Wikimedia).
An Egyptian god is assigned to each. Plus each god and each jar has another guardian god – like a guardian angel! Shown below is a short article related to the jars and these gods accessible at Wikipedia.
In this final chapter of Genesis and the final chapter on the saga of Joseph, we come again to Joseph’s words that testify of Jesus, our Lord, our Savior, the Messiah (the Christ) and He who is God Himself. We’ve shown that the Lord set up Joseph as a paradigm of Jesus. Though I have provided these links before I will again provide them for you. This will only enhance your study of this concept of Joseph as a Paradigm of Jesus.
The first is a short video that is a great introduction to this topic. Here's the link ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQKadh0fVCo
The second resource is an article at the excellent website "Hebrew4Christians." The article goes deeper into the connections between Joseph and Jesus providing over 60 indisputable connections solidly based upon scripture and not opinion or speculation. Here's link to the article ... https://hebrew4christians.com/Articles/Mashiach_ben_Yosef/mashiach_ben_yosef.html
A third resource you must have access to is a scholarly paper written by my graduate studies advisor, Dr. Ron Mosely. In his paper Dr. Mosely discusses Joseph as a prototype of the suffering Messiah just like David is a prototype of the conquering Messiah - https://www.academia.edu/3796976/Twice_Rejected_Mashiach_Ben_Joseph
The final link is to Netivyah (The Way of the Lord) ministries in Jerusalem. This is a Messianic Jewish ministry founded by Joseph Shulam, an amazing Jewish scholar who helps us reconnect to our Jewish roots of our faith. This link is to a book written by one of their resident scholars, Elhanan ben Avraham, "Moshiach ben Yosef (Messiah the Son Of Joseph)". I highly recommend you get this book and all the books you can buy from this ministry - https://netivyah.org/product/mashiach-ben-yoseph/
And thus we conclude our study in the book of Genesis. A cool tradition is when Jews come to the end of the study of the book of Torah they say a specific phrase. You can see it in the picture below.
Rev. Ferret - who is this guy?
What's his background? Why should I listen to him? Check his background at this link - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ortnret3oxcicu4/BackgrndTeacher%20mar%2025%202020.pdf?dl=0
