Genesis Day 5

1. Joseph hiding his identity from his brothers was very interesting to me. The lie goes on for four chapters and as the suspense builds, you can't help but wonder whether Joseph is trying to get revenge or just scare his brothers. I really think that he was going to have them killed. In fact, Joseph doesn't forgive his brothers until Judah offers his life to save Benjamin's. 2. I think this story has a lot to say about jealousy. The brothers are so jealous of Joseph that they want to kill him! Their lives eventually fall into the hands of the very person they wanted dead. It just goes to show you that you should be careful who you piss off.
