10
\n00:00:36,640 –> 00:00:39,640
\nAnd now let’s talk more about
\nthis week’s talk. <\/p>\n

11
\n00:00:50,680 –> 00:00:52,960
\nWelcome to the good Chris
\nAdelphian Talks podcast. <\/p>\n

12
\n00:00:53,440 –> 00:00:56,400
\nThis is brother Brian.
\nJust as a way of introduction, <\/p>\n

13
\n00:00:56,400 –> 00:01:00,560
\nwe have Brother Mike Livermore
\nfrom Michigan as a guest host <\/p>\n

14
\n00:01:00,560 –> 00:01:03,160
\nfor a number of episodes coming
\ndown the pipeline. <\/p>\n

15
\n00:01:04,440 –> 00:01:07,720
\nIf this is something that you’re
\nalso willing to do, record your <\/p>\n

16
\n00:01:07,720 –> 00:01:11,120
\nown intros and send them in with
\nthe class or series that you’re <\/p>\n

17
\n00:01:11,120 –> 00:01:13,320
\nrecommending.
\nWe’d love to take you up on it <\/p>\n

18
\n00:01:13,320 –> 00:01:16,480
\nto get you involved.
\nSo with that, here’s Brother <\/p>\n

19
\n00:01:16,480 –> 00:01:18,600
\nMike.
\nHello. <\/p>\n

20
\n00:01:18,880 –> 00:01:21,760
\nMy name is Mike Livermore, I’m a
\ndisciple of Christ from the <\/p>\n

21
\n00:01:21,760 –> 00:01:25,040
\nstate of Michigan, here to share
\nwith you a class I really <\/p>\n

22
\n00:01:25,040 –> 00:01:30,080
\nenjoyed hearing at Trine or the
\nMidwest Bible School in 2023. <\/p>\n

23
\n00:01:30,880 –> 00:01:34,400
\nThe teacher is Kevin Ledbetter
\nwho is an old friend of mine <\/p>\n

24
\n00:01:34,400 –> 00:01:36,680
\nfrom Ontario who now lives in
\nVirginia. <\/p>\n

25
\n00:01:37,320 –> 00:01:41,680
\nAnd at Trine 2023 he gave an
\nevening program which I believe <\/p>\n

26
\n00:01:41,680 –> 00:01:46,200
\nwas Thursday night, might have
\nbeen Wednesday night, I forget, <\/p>\n

27
\n00:01:46,560 –> 00:01:50,680
\nbut it was just a one off
\nevening program and I loved it. <\/p>\n

28
\n00:01:51,000 –> 00:01:54,160
\nIt was my favorite class of the
\nwhole Bible school and I went up<\/p>\n

29
\n00:01:54,160 –> 00:01:57,000
\nand I thanked Kevin immediately
\nafter the class. <\/p>\n

30
\n00:01:57,000 –> 00:02:01,280
\nI love this class.
\nThe class is called Joseph. <\/p>\n

31
\n00:02:01,560 –> 00:02:05,600
\nThe rejected becomes the savior
\nin due time. <\/p>\n

32
\n00:02:06,360 –> 00:02:08,800
\nThere’s two reasons why I love
\nthis class. <\/p>\n

33
\n00:02:09,840 –> 00:02:12,840
\nThe 1st is it sort of answers
\nthe question. <\/p>\n

34
\n00:02:13,360 –> 00:02:16,880
\nHave you ever been in a class
\nwhere when it was over you <\/p>\n

35
\n00:02:16,880 –> 00:02:20,000
\nwanted more?
\nWhere instead of the class going<\/p>\n

36
\n00:02:20,000 –> 00:02:24,360
\non for too long, instead you
\nthought the class was too short,<\/p>\n

37
\n00:02:24,520 –> 00:02:28,120
\nyou didn’t even get enough.
\nLike what you got was great, but<\/p>\n

38
\n00:02:28,120 –> 00:02:30,840
\nyou wanted more.
\nHe left the audience wanting <\/p>\n

39
\n00:02:30,840 –> 00:02:32,880
\nmore.
\nIt’s such a rare thing. <\/p>\n

40
\n00:02:32,880 –> 00:02:37,480
\nUsually, you know, people go
\nlong, but Kevin said no, less is<\/p>\n

41
\n00:02:37,480 –> 00:02:40,400
\nmore.
\nAnd I left this class wanting <\/p>\n

42
\n00:02:40,400 –> 00:02:44,120
\neven more than the already
\nexcellent spiritual meal that I <\/p>\n

43
\n00:02:44,120 –> 00:02:46,640
\ngot.
\nThe second reason I love this <\/p>\n

44
\n00:02:46,640 –> 00:02:51,680
\nclass was that I can’t believe
\nI’ve lived my whole life and <\/p>\n

45
\n00:02:51,680 –> 00:02:56,400
\nnever realized the lessons or
\nthe expositional material that <\/p>\n

46
\n00:02:56,400 –> 00:03:00,200
\nKevin brought out about Joseph.
\nThat we of course know that <\/p>\n

47
\n00:03:00,200 –> 00:03:05,040
\nJoseph’s a type of Christ, but
\nwe forget all of the connections<\/p>\n

48
\n00:03:05,040 –> 00:03:09,960
\nsort of in the second-half of
\nJoseph’s life to the future work<\/p>\n

49
\n00:03:09,960 –> 00:03:11,960
\nof Jesus and I.
\nIt’s one of the things where you<\/p>\n

50
\n00:03:11,960 –> 00:03:14,760
\nsay, why did I never even think
\nof that before? <\/p>\n

51
\n00:03:15,040 –> 00:03:19,240
\nSo I learned so much.
\nAnd for all of the expositional <\/p>\n

52
\n00:03:19,240 –> 00:03:23,560
\nweight of this class and the
\nlesson at the end, I still <\/p>\n

53
\n00:03:23,560 –> 00:03:24,920
\nwanted more.
\nLike it wasn’t enough. <\/p>\n

54
\n00:03:24,920 –> 00:03:27,520
\nIt was that good.
\nSo hopefully you agree with me. <\/p>\n

55
\n00:03:27,520 –> 00:03:31,560
\nHopefully you love this class
\nand when it’s over ask yourself <\/p>\n

56
\n00:03:31,840 –> 00:03:35,800
\ndid you want 3 more minutes of
\nKevin maybe really hammering a <\/p>\n

57
\n00:03:35,800 –> 00:03:39,240
\nlessons home?
\nI could have taken 10-15 more <\/p>\n

58
\n00:03:39,240 –> 00:03:41,360
\nminutes.
\nI love this class so hopefully <\/p>\n

59
\n00:03:41,360 –> 00:03:43,720
\nyou do too.
\nSo this was Kevin Ledbetter <\/p>\n

60
\n00:03:43,720 –> 00:03:48,520
\ntrying 2023 called Joseph the
\nrejected becomes the Savior in <\/p>\n

61
\n00:03:48,520 –> 00:03:53,360
\ndue time.
\nJoseph is one of those stories <\/p>\n

62
\n00:03:53,360 –> 00:03:57,640
\nin scriptures that really pulls
\nus in as we read through it. <\/p>\n

63
\n00:03:58,600 –> 00:04:02,680
\nYou feel his pain and anguish
\nwhen he’s sold by his brethren. <\/p>\n

64
\n00:04:04,160 –> 00:04:08,520
\nWe feel sorry and upset when
\nhe’s for his unjust <\/p>\n

65
\n00:04:08,520 –> 00:04:13,360
\nimprisonment, and yet we stand
\nbehind him when he’s lifted up <\/p>\n

66
\n00:04:13,520 –> 00:04:17,920
\ninto a position of authority.
\nIt’s really this great, <\/p>\n

67
\n00:04:18,680 –> 00:04:24,720
\nremarkable and very emotional
\nstory, and we take a step back <\/p>\n

68
\n00:04:24,720 –> 00:04:29,280
\nto consider the life of Joseph.
\nWe see that’s a witness to the <\/p>\n

69
\n00:04:29,280 –> 00:04:35,880
\npower of God with the rejected
\nJoseph who becomes the Savior of<\/p>\n

70
\n00:04:35,880 –> 00:04:39,280
\nthe world in the right time in
\nGod’s plan. <\/p>\n

71
\n00:04:41,560 –> 00:04:45,320
\nThat the life of Joseph is
\npresented in such a way in <\/p>\n

72
\n00:04:45,320 –> 00:04:49,000
\nScriptures that it foreshadows
\nfuture events. <\/p>\n

73
\n00:04:50,360 –> 00:04:55,160
\nFor example, if we read through
\nchapters 37, we read of the <\/p>\n

74
\n00:04:55,160 –> 00:04:58,520
\ntreatment that Joseph receives
\nat the hand of his brethren. <\/p>\n

75
\n00:04:59,520 –> 00:05:04,400
\nThey mocked him, they conspired
\nagainst him, they stripped him <\/p>\n

76
\n00:05:04,400 –> 00:05:07,240
\nof his clothes, and they sell
\nhim to die. <\/p>\n

77
\n00:05:08,680 –> 00:05:11,800
\nAnd these same details are are
\ndescribed. <\/p>\n

78
\n00:05:11,880 –> 00:05:15,440
\nDescribes how the nation of
\nIsrael treated Jesus and his <\/p>\n

79
\n00:05:15,440 –> 00:05:20,400
\nministry who was hated, rejected
\nand sentenced to death by his <\/p>\n

80
\n00:05:20,400 –> 00:05:21,960
\nbrethren.
\nLike Joseph. <\/p>\n

81
\n00:05:23,920 –> 00:05:27,760
\nWe read chapters 40 to 41.
\nThey tell us this really <\/p>\n

82
\n00:05:27,760 –> 00:05:31,920
\ndramatic way in which Joseph is
\nbrought up out of prison by <\/p>\n

83
\n00:05:31,920 –> 00:05:35,480
\nbeing an interpreter of dreams
\nto become second in command. <\/p>\n

84
\n00:05:36,720 –> 00:05:39,840
\nAnd this very illustration is
\napplied to Christ. <\/p>\n

85
\n00:05:40,400 –> 00:05:45,040
\nThe apostle Paul says that when
\nhe ascended up on high, he led <\/p>\n

86
\n00:05:45,040 –> 00:05:48,040
\ncaptivity captive.
\nAnd so the imagery is presented <\/p>\n

87
\n00:05:48,040 –> 00:05:52,560
\nof one who opens the prisons and
\nleads the captives to freedom. <\/p>\n

88
\n00:05:53,680 –> 00:05:56,800
\nAnd we know as by Paul’s use of
\nthis is representative of Jesus <\/p>\n

89
\n00:05:56,800 –> 00:06:00,720
\nresurrection and his ascension
\nto sit at the right hand of God.<\/p>\n

90
\n00:06:02,840 –> 00:06:06,920
\nAnd so we see clearly the life
\nof Joseph is a from chapters 37 <\/p>\n

91
\n00:06:06,920 –> 00:06:12,400
\nto 41 is a pattern of the life
\nof Jesus, pointing forward to <\/p>\n

92
\n00:06:12,400 –> 00:06:17,320
\nhis abuse of treatment by his
\nbrethren and his life, his <\/p>\n

93
\n00:06:17,320 –> 00:06:20,640
\ncondemnation to die, his
\nresurrection and ascension to <\/p>\n

94
\n00:06:20,640 –> 00:06:27,520
\nthe right hand of God.
\nNow if the first advent of Jesus<\/p>\n

95
\n00:06:27,520 –> 00:06:34,040
\nis portrayed in chapters 37 to
\n41, what about chapters 42 to <\/p>\n

96
\n00:06:34,040 –> 00:06:38,080
\n46?
\nWould it not stand to reason <\/p>\n

97
\n00:06:38,080 –> 00:06:42,200
\nthen that the second-half of the
\nlife of Joseph is a pattern of <\/p>\n

98
\n00:06:42,200 –> 00:06:46,800
\nJesus as well?
\nConsider this remark from Logos <\/p>\n

99
\n00:06:46,800 –> 00:06:51,120
\nMagazine in 1953 and speaking
\nabout Joseph as a type of <\/p>\n

100
\n00:06:51,120 –> 00:06:56,920
\nChrist, the writer says it
\nusually requires 2 characters to<\/p>\n

101
\n00:06:56,920 –> 00:07:02,920
\ntypify the Lord Jesus Christ.
\nFor example, David and Solomon <\/p>\n

102
\n00:07:02,960 –> 00:07:08,480
\ncombined prefigured the Lord as
\nman of war and Prince of Peace. <\/p>\n

103
\n00:07:10,200 –> 00:07:15,040
\nIn Joseph, we have the complete
\ntype, a man whose life <\/p>\n

104
\n00:07:15,040 –> 00:07:20,280
\nforeshadowed in great detail the
\npast and future glory of the <\/p>\n

105
\n00:07:20,280 –> 00:07:23,880
\nMessiah.
\nSo only inspiration could select<\/p>\n

106
\n00:07:23,880 –> 00:07:26,840
\nto record such a life, and which
\nis a complete parable, the <\/p>\n

107
\n00:07:26,840 –> 00:07:30,360
\npurpose of God in Christ.
\nAnd so brother Pennington here <\/p>\n

108
\n00:07:30,360 –> 00:07:36,080
\ncalls Joseph the complete type,
\nthe past and future glory of the<\/p>\n

109
\n00:07:36,080 –> 00:07:39,360
\nMessiah.
\nAnd so it’s at this point, <\/p>\n

110
\n00:07:39,360 –> 00:07:41,880
\nbrothers and sisters, we’re
\ngoing to consider a few details <\/p>\n

111
\n00:07:42,160 –> 00:07:45,960
\nprimarily from Genesis 42.
\nNow, as we go through this <\/p>\n

112
\n00:07:45,960 –> 00:07:50,960
\nchapter, think about how these
\ndetails point forward to the <\/p>\n

113
\n00:07:50,960 –> 00:07:53,720
\nfuture work of Israel’s
\nRedeemer. <\/p>\n

114
\n00:07:59,160 –> 00:08:02,280
\nSo chapter 42, just for a bit of
\ncontext here, the narrative <\/p>\n

115
\n00:08:02,280 –> 00:08:06,160
\nbrings our attention away from
\nJoseph in Egypt, back up into <\/p>\n

116
\n00:08:06,160 –> 00:08:10,040
\nthe land of Canaan, to Jacob and
\nto his eleven sons. <\/p>\n

117
\n00:08:11,280 –> 00:08:15,560
\nNow, verses one to four, Jacob
\nand his sons realize that there <\/p>\n

118
\n00:08:15,560 –> 00:08:18,800
\nis a famine in the land.
\nNow, they do not know that’s <\/p>\n

119
\n00:08:18,840 –> 00:08:22,600
\ngoing to last seven years and
\nthey don’t know what God’s plan <\/p>\n

120
\n00:08:22,600 –> 00:08:26,200
\nis at this time.
\nHowever, they do realize the <\/p>\n

121
\n00:08:26,200 –> 00:08:30,080
\nseriousness of this situation.
\nThey realize it’s a matter of <\/p>\n

122
\n00:08:30,080 –> 00:08:34,960
\nlife and death.
\nAnd so it’s at this point, if <\/p>\n

123
\n00:08:34,960 –> 00:08:38,200
\nyou were to go over to Acts
\nChapter 7 and read what Stephen <\/p>\n

124
\n00:08:38,200 –> 00:08:39,880
\nhas to say about this time
\nperiod. <\/p>\n

125
\n00:08:40,080 –> 00:08:44,400
\nHe says that our fathers found
\nno sustenance in the land, <\/p>\n

126
\n00:08:44,800 –> 00:08:49,440
\nindicating that the sons of
\nJacob went up and down the land <\/p>\n

127
\n00:08:49,480 –> 00:08:54,440
\nlooking for food for them and
\nfor their cattle, and they came <\/p>\n

128
\n00:08:54,440 –> 00:08:58,520
\nup empty.
\nAnd so at this point the Jacob <\/p>\n

129
\n00:08:58,520 –> 00:09:02,800
\nturns to his sons and says, why
\ndo you look one upon another? <\/p>\n

130
\n00:09:03,120 –> 00:09:05,720
\nI don’t think this comments so
\nmuch about the laziness on their<\/p>\n

131
\n00:09:05,720 –> 00:09:08,520
\npart, but it is their lack of
\naction. <\/p>\n

132
\n00:09:08,800 –> 00:09:11,200
\nYou see, they’ve searched the
\nland, they came up empty, and <\/p>\n

133
\n00:09:11,200 –> 00:09:17,000
\nthey don’t know what to do next.
\nAnd so it’s Jacob, their father,<\/p>\n

134
\n00:09:17,360 –> 00:09:20,560
\nwho takes command.
\nAnd it’s he that directs their <\/p>\n

135
\n00:09:20,560 –> 00:09:25,640
\nattention to Egypt, where there
\nwill be food for their survival.<\/p>\n

136
\n00:09:27,600 –> 00:09:30,880
\nAnd so he then organizes his
\nsons to go into Egypt to buy <\/p>\n

137
\n00:09:30,880 –> 00:09:34,120
\nfood.
\nHowever, due to issues of <\/p>\n

138
\n00:09:34,120 –> 00:09:39,800
\nmistrust, he doesn’t send
\nBenjamin with the 10. <\/p>\n

139
\n00:09:41,320 –> 00:09:44,880
\nSo just to summarize here,
\nverses one to four, the brethren<\/p>\n

140
\n00:09:44,880 –> 00:09:47,480
\nseek food during the time of a
\nfamine. <\/p>\n

141
\n00:09:49,360 –> 00:09:53,520
\nNow verses 5 to 9, the brethren
\ncome into Egypt to buy corn and <\/p>\n

142
\n00:09:53,520 –> 00:09:57,040
\nthe very first thing they do as
\nthey entered in to Egypt is to <\/p>\n

143
\n00:09:57,040 –> 00:09:59,760
\nbow down before this ruler in
\ncharge. <\/p>\n

144
\n00:09:59,760 –> 00:10:02,880
\nNow there’s two interesting
\nthings identified in this <\/p>\n

145
\n00:10:02,880 –> 00:10:04,400
\naction.
\nFirstly, from the from the <\/p>\n

146
\n00:10:04,400 –> 00:10:11,960
\nperspective of the sons of Jacob
\nfrom the 10 brethren, verse 8, <\/p>\n

147
\n00:10:12,240 –> 00:10:17,760
\nJoseph knew them, but they did
\nnot know him, so they didn’t <\/p>\n

148
\n00:10:17,760 –> 00:10:21,000
\nrecognize Joseph.
\nBut you look at this situation <\/p>\n

149
\n00:10:21,000 –> 00:10:25,400
\nthrough the eyes of Joseph as he
\nsees his brethren come in and he<\/p>\n

150
\n00:10:25,400 –> 00:10:27,480
\nsees his brethren bow down
\nbefore them. <\/p>\n

151
\n00:10:27,480 –> 00:10:30,240
\nWhat does he see?
\nHe sees his dreams being <\/p>\n

152
\n00:10:30,240 –> 00:10:34,760
\nfulfilled, and it’s declaring to
\nhim that Yahweh is at work <\/p>\n

153
\n00:10:34,760 –> 00:10:41,800
\nthrough him to save his family.
\nAnd so verses 5 to 9, we see <\/p>\n

154
\n00:10:41,920 –> 00:10:45,720
\nthat the brethren bow down
\nbefore this unknown provider <\/p>\n

155
\n00:10:45,720 –> 00:10:51,400
\nwhen they enter into Egypt.
\nNow verses 9 to 38, the brethren<\/p>\n

156
\n00:10:51,400 –> 00:10:55,160
\nare thou put to the test.
\nYou see Joseph, upon recognizing<\/p>\n

157
\n00:10:55,160 –> 00:11:01,200
\nhis brethren, he devises a way
\nto see if they’ve changed their <\/p>\n

158
\n00:11:01,200 –> 00:11:06,200
\nways and so he accuses them of
\nbeing spies in the land. <\/p>\n

159
\n00:11:07,640 –> 00:11:11,840
\nNow the sentence or the
\npunishment of being spies is <\/p>\n

160
\n00:11:11,840 –> 00:11:15,320
\ndeath.
\nSo consider the situation the <\/p>\n

161
\n00:11:15,320 –> 00:11:18,000
\nbrethren are in.
\nThey’re being accused of spying <\/p>\n

162
\n00:11:18,000 –> 00:11:20,840
\nin a foreign land.
\nTheir life is on the line. <\/p>\n

163
\n00:11:21,000 –> 00:11:23,040
\nNow look how they respond in
\nverse 10. <\/p>\n

164
\n00:11:25,080 –> 00:11:28,880
\nThey said nay, my Lord, but to
\nbuy food are thy servants of <\/p>\n

165
\n00:11:28,880 –> 00:11:30,160
\ncomes.
\nThey’re declaring that their <\/p>\n

166
\n00:11:30,160 –> 00:11:32,040
\npurpose here is not to spy out
\nthe land. <\/p>\n

167
\n00:11:32,480 –> 00:11:36,800
\nTheir purpose is to buy food to
\nprovide for their families back <\/p>\n

168
\n00:11:36,800 –> 00:11:38,800
\nhome.
\nBut they follow this with a <\/p>\n

169
\n00:11:38,800 –> 00:11:42,440
\ndeclaration in verse 11.
\nThey said we’re all one man’s <\/p>\n

170
\n00:11:42,440 –> 00:11:47,520
\nsons and we are true men and not
\nspies. <\/p>\n

171
\n00:11:47,720 –> 00:11:49,000
\nAnd so they make this
\ndeclaration. <\/p>\n

172
\n00:11:49,000 –> 00:11:50,320
\nWe’re not spies.
\nWe’re not. <\/p>\n

173
\n00:11:50,320 –> 00:11:53,320
\nWe’re telling the truth because
\nwe’re true men. <\/p>\n

174
\n00:11:53,320 –> 00:11:57,320
\nIt’s interesting.
\nThe evidence that they that they<\/p>\n

175
\n00:11:57,320 –> 00:12:00,720
\nput forth for this, the evidence
\nthey put forth that they’re not <\/p>\n

176
\n00:12:00,720 –> 00:12:06,360
\nspies is that that they are sons
\nof one man in the land of <\/p>\n

177
\n00:12:06,360 –> 00:12:09,880
\nCanaan.
\nNow how does this evidence prove<\/p>\n

178
\n00:12:09,880 –> 00:12:12,160
\ntheir innocence?
\nHow does this evidence prove <\/p>\n

179
\n00:12:12,160 –> 00:12:14,080
\nthat they’re not spies to spy
\nout the land? <\/p>\n

180
\n00:12:15,320 –> 00:12:17,920
\nWell, to this we would just go
\nback to Numbers chapter 13. <\/p>\n

181
\n00:12:18,360 –> 00:12:21,120
\nWe remember when the children of
\nIsrael spied out the land of <\/p>\n

182
\n00:12:21,120 –> 00:12:25,040
\nCanaan and what did they do?
\nThey sent one man from every <\/p>\n

183
\n00:12:25,040 –> 00:12:30,400
\ntribe into the land, showing
\nthey had a confederate of people<\/p>\n

184
\n00:12:30,400 –> 00:12:33,720
\nto invade.
\nYou know, in the time of Joshua,<\/p>\n

185
\n00:12:33,720 –> 00:12:36,520
\nthey had an army consisting of
\nhundreds of thousands of <\/p>\n

186
\n00:12:36,520 –> 00:12:40,200
\nsoldiers to invade.
\nBut in the time of Jacob, when <\/p>\n

187
\n00:12:40,200 –> 00:12:43,560
\nyou looked at the land of
\nCanaan, it was not united. <\/p>\n

188
\n00:12:44,480 –> 00:12:47,840
\nIt was broken up into multiple
\ntribes and small and small or or<\/p>\n

189
\n00:12:47,840 –> 00:12:50,960
\nlarge families, one of which was
\nthe family of Jacob. <\/p>\n

190
\n00:12:51,200 –> 00:12:54,960
\nAnd so to challenge the power of
\nEgypt, they would have to be <\/p>\n

191
\n00:12:55,600 –> 00:12:57,880
\nunited.
\nAnd so therefore, proof that <\/p>\n

192
\n00:12:57,880 –> 00:13:01,440
\nthey were not spies, that they
\nwere looking for food, was the <\/p>\n

193
\n00:13:01,440 –> 00:13:06,920
\nfact that they had no
\nConfederates, they had no help, <\/p>\n

194
\n00:13:07,160 –> 00:13:11,560
\nand that they were just one
\nfamily, and therefore they could<\/p>\n

195
\n00:13:11,560 –> 00:13:14,160
\nnot gather an army to defeat the
\nEgyptians. <\/p>\n

196
\n00:13:15,880 –> 00:13:19,080
\nNow verses 9 to 34, we see this
\nbit of back and forth between <\/p>\n

197
\n00:13:19,080 –> 00:13:22,720
\nJoseph and his brethren over
\nthis accusation of spying. <\/p>\n

198
\n00:13:22,720 –> 00:13:27,760
\nAnd Joseph really puts them in a
\ncorner because they have to <\/p>\n

199
\n00:13:27,760 –> 00:13:31,120
\ndefend themselves by saying that
\nwe’re true men and this is what <\/p>\n

200
\n00:13:31,120 –> 00:13:34,560
\nJoseph is putting to the test.
\nNow in their defense, they <\/p>\n

201
\n00:13:34,560 –> 00:13:38,160
\nmentioned that they had one more
\nbrother at home with their <\/p>\n

202
\n00:13:38,160 –> 00:13:44,400
\nfather.
\nNow upon hearing this, that they<\/p>\n

203
\n00:13:44,440 –> 00:13:46,200
\nhad one more brother at home
\nwith their father. <\/p>\n

204
\n00:13:46,400 –> 00:13:49,960
\nJoseph leverages this situation
\nso he again, he can put their <\/p>\n

205
\n00:13:49,960 –> 00:13:52,920
\ncharacter to the test.
\nAnd So what does he say? <\/p>\n

206
\n00:13:53,320 –> 00:13:56,280
\nHe takes them up on their story.
\nHe says fine, go fetch your <\/p>\n

207
\n00:13:56,280 –> 00:14:03,240
\nbrother that your words may be
\nproved because he wants to find <\/p>\n

208
\n00:14:03,240 –> 00:14:05,640
\nout if there’s any truth in
\nthem. <\/p>\n

209
\n00:14:07,720 –> 00:14:12,200
\nSo Joseph, he brilliantly
\nrecreates his last interaction <\/p>\n

210
\n00:14:12,200 –> 00:14:16,240
\nhe had with his brothers by
\nputting them into prison to <\/p>\n

211
\n00:14:16,240 –> 00:14:21,360
\nprove their worth.
\nNow, upon hearing Joseph’s <\/p>\n

212
\n00:14:21,360 –> 00:14:26,080
\nrequest, look at this discussion
\nthat comes up among the brethren<\/p>\n

213
\n00:14:26,080 –> 00:14:28,040
\nas they’re standing before
\nJoseph. <\/p>\n

214
\n00:14:30,480 –> 00:14:34,840
\nThey said one to another, we are
\nverily guilty concerning our <\/p>\n

215
\n00:14:34,840 –> 00:14:37,480
\nbrother.
\nAnd so for the first time, <\/p>\n

216
\n00:14:37,680 –> 00:14:42,160
\nJoseph hears them admit to their
\ngrievous sins. <\/p>\n

217
\n00:14:42,160 –> 00:14:47,120
\nAnd in verse 22, he also learns
\nthat Reuben, his older brother, <\/p>\n

218
\n00:14:47,120 –> 00:14:51,240
\nactually protested against his
\nother brothers and and somewhat <\/p>\n

219
\n00:14:51,240 –> 00:14:53,800
\nstood up for him and showed a
\nlittle bit of care for him. <\/p>\n

220
\n00:14:54,960 –> 00:14:57,920
\nThis is the first time Joseph is
\nhearing this out of his <\/p>\n

221
\n00:14:57,920 –> 00:15:05,740
\nbrother’s mouth.
\nNow, upon hearing their <\/p>\n

222
\n00:15:05,740 –> 00:15:10,740
\nconfession right in Reuben’s
\nReuben’s remarks, it resorts <\/p>\n

223
\n00:15:10,740 –> 00:15:14,220
\nJoseph to tears.
\nAnd we see that he’s a really <\/p>\n

224
\n00:15:14,220 –> 00:15:17,180
\nemotional man.
\nAnd this concept of Joseph <\/p>\n

225
\n00:15:17,180 –> 00:15:20,740
\nweeping over as a brethren is a
\npoint that’s repeated multiple <\/p>\n

226
\n00:15:20,740 –> 00:15:26,240
\ntimes in in the narrative.
\nNow, Brother Snow in the Logos <\/p>\n

227
\n00:15:26,240 –> 00:15:30,600
\nmagazine points out there seven
\ntimes that Joseph weeps over his<\/p>\n

228
\n00:15:30,600 –> 00:15:34,160
\nbrethren from the ways of when
\nhe reflection of the ways of <\/p>\n

229
\n00:15:34,160 –> 00:15:37,480
\nProvidence to his presence
\nbefore his brethren, he’s <\/p>\n

230
\n00:15:37,480 –> 00:15:40,320
\nweeping over them.
\nNow Brother Snow continues on <\/p>\n

231
\n00:15:40,320 –> 00:15:45,200
\nand he speaks about this and he
\nfirst makes the point that tears<\/p>\n

232
\n00:15:45,360 –> 00:15:49,680
\nshow emotion.
\nHe says Joseph tears flowed from<\/p>\n

233
\n00:15:49,680 –> 00:15:55,680
\nLovejoy, sympathy, sorrow,
\naffection, compassion and <\/p>\n

234
\n00:15:55,680 –> 00:15:59,760
\nsadness.
\nHe then makes the point the <\/p>\n

235
\n00:15:59,760 –> 00:16:05,400
\ntears affect us physically.
\nHe says tears relieve tension <\/p>\n

236
\n00:16:05,920 –> 00:16:09,640
\nand are therefore calming in
\neffect and they do good for they<\/p>\n

237
\n00:16:09,640 –> 00:16:12,360
\ncontain a bacteria fighting
\nenzyme. <\/p>\n

238
\n00:16:13,320 –> 00:16:19,800
\nAnd thirdly, he says they
\ncleanse and purify at the same <\/p>\n

239
\n00:16:19,800 –> 00:16:23,640
\ntime.
\nAnd he finishes his remark here <\/p>\n

240
\n00:16:23,640 –> 00:16:26,680
\nabout the tears of Joseph.
\nAnd he says it’s significant <\/p>\n

241
\n00:16:26,880 –> 00:16:31,480
\nthat the Hebrew word for tears
\nor for eyes, sorry is Ian, and <\/p>\n

242
\n00:16:31,480 –> 00:16:33,640
\nthat there’s duty also for
\nfountain. <\/p>\n

243
\n00:16:34,680 –> 00:16:37,720
\nThe eyes, of course, are the
\nfountain of the body. <\/p>\n

244
\n00:16:38,000 –> 00:16:41,240
\nAnd so he he finishes remarks by
\nconnecting tears as the <\/p>\n

245
\n00:16:41,240 –> 00:16:44,560
\nfountains of the body.
\nSo just to summarize these <\/p>\n

246
\n00:16:44,560 –> 00:16:47,960
\npoints, we see in verses 9 to
\n38, the brethren are put to the <\/p>\n

247
\n00:16:47,960 –> 00:16:50,120
\ntest.
\nThey have no Confederates. <\/p>\n

248
\n00:16:50,280 –> 00:16:54,320
\nThey acknowledge their sin.
\nAnd Joseph’s described like a <\/p>\n

249
\n00:16:54,320 –> 00:16:57,520
\nfountain who sheds tears over
\nhis brethren. <\/p>\n

250
\n00:16:59,200 –> 00:17:02,800
\nSo I want to skip over a couple
\nchapters to chapter 44 again, <\/p>\n

251
\n00:17:02,800 –> 00:17:05,240
\njust very briefly.
\nAnd this is where we have Judah <\/p>\n

252
\n00:17:05,720 –> 00:17:08,920
\nbefore Joseph.
\nNow Judah is a man whose name <\/p>\n

253
\n00:17:08,920 –> 00:17:13,200
\nmeans praised, and he comes
\nbefore Joseph really as a <\/p>\n

254
\n00:17:13,200 –> 00:17:17,359
\nrepresentative of his brethren,
\nas the sons of Jacob. <\/p>\n

255
\n00:17:17,640 –> 00:17:21,319
\nAnd he comes bowing before him.
\nAnd the first thing again that <\/p>\n

256
\n00:17:21,319 –> 00:17:24,920
\ncomes out of his mouth is an
\nacknowledgement of their sins <\/p>\n

257
\n00:17:24,920 –> 00:17:29,560
\nand iniquities before God, and
\nthis unknown ruler before him. <\/p>\n

258
\n00:17:30,800 –> 00:17:36,720
\nAnd then verses 18 to 34, Judah
\nmakes his case before Joseph. <\/p>\n

259
\n00:17:37,360 –> 00:17:43,200
\nNow consider the emphasis of the
\nwords here 44 and verse 19. <\/p>\n

260
\n00:17:43,680 –> 00:17:47,080
\nJudah says, My Lord asked his
\nservants, saying, Have you a <\/p>\n

261
\n00:17:47,080 –> 00:17:53,040
\nfather and a brother?
\nHe said, He said, we responded, <\/p>\n

262
\n00:17:53,040 –> 00:17:57,560
\nwe have a father and an old man,
\nand his father loves him, his <\/p>\n

263
\n00:17:57,560 –> 00:18:00,880
\nson Benjamin.
\nAnd the lad cannot leave his <\/p>\n

264
\n00:18:00,880 –> 00:18:04,480
\nfather, for if he should leave
\nhis father, his father would <\/p>\n

265
\n00:18:04,480 –> 00:18:06,160
\ndie.
\nAnd so we see an emphasis in the<\/p>\n

266
\n00:18:06,160 –> 00:18:09,080
\nwords of Judah about their
\nfather. <\/p>\n

267
\n00:18:09,440 –> 00:18:12,280
\nAnd this continues on in the
\nrest of this chapter. <\/p>\n

268
\n00:18:12,960 –> 00:18:15,280
\nHis father, his father, his
\nfather. <\/p>\n

269
\n00:18:15,360 –> 00:18:18,400
\nAnd so here we have Judah as a
\nrepresentative of his brother. <\/p>\n

270
\n00:18:19,840 –> 00:18:24,360
\nAnd they’ve learned how their
\nactions have hurt their father, <\/p>\n

271
\n00:18:25,480 –> 00:18:29,000
\nand they’ve changed their
\ncharacter because it reflects <\/p>\n

272
\n00:18:29,120 –> 00:18:34,320
\ntheir father.
\nThere’s a change in these men as<\/p>\n

273
\n00:18:34,320 –> 00:18:37,160
\nthey come in to stand before
\nJoseph in Chapter 44. <\/p>\n

274
\n00:18:38,200 –> 00:18:41,560
\nAnd so chapter 44, we see Judah
\nas representative of his <\/p>\n

275
\n00:18:41,560 –> 00:18:45,960
\nbrethren show care for their
\nfather as they bow before this <\/p>\n

276
\n00:18:45,960 –> 00:18:49,400
\nunknown provider.
\nIt affected the way they lived <\/p>\n

277
\n00:18:49,400 –> 00:18:53,760
\ntheir lives.
\nOne last point from Genesis in <\/p>\n

278
\n00:18:53,760 –> 00:18:59,160
\nGenesis chapter 45, as we we
\nhave this this really as as <\/p>\n

279
\n00:18:59,440 –> 00:19:02,280
\nJoseph reveals himself to his
\nbrethren in in this really <\/p>\n

280
\n00:19:02,280 –> 00:19:07,520
\ndramatic way.
\nConsider Joseph’s words about <\/p>\n

281
\n00:19:07,520 –> 00:19:12,440
\nhow God worked through them.
\nHe says in verse 5, God sent me.<\/p>\n

282
\n00:19:13,120 –> 00:19:16,200
\nHe says in verse 7, God sent me
\nbefore you. <\/p>\n

283
\n00:19:16,440 –> 00:19:19,680
\nVerse eight, it was not you that
\nsent me, but God. <\/p>\n

284
\n00:19:19,880 –> 00:19:23,680
\nAnd so Joseph clearly makes the
\npoint God was at work in their <\/p>\n

285
\n00:19:23,680 –> 00:19:25,760
\nlives.
\nGod was at work and sending him <\/p>\n

286
\n00:19:25,760 –> 00:19:30,720
\ninto Egypt.
\nWhy verse 5? <\/p>\n

287
\n00:19:31,120 –> 00:19:36,520
\nTo preserve life.
\nIt was to preserve a posterity <\/p>\n

288
\n00:19:36,600 –> 00:19:39,640
\nand to save their lives.
\nAnd so Joseph, upon revealing <\/p>\n

289
\n00:19:39,640 –> 00:19:44,920
\nhimself to his brother, declares
\nthat God worked through them to <\/p>\n

290
\n00:19:44,920 –> 00:19:49,280
\nsave their house.
\nAnd so he’s making the point <\/p>\n

291
\n00:19:49,280 –> 00:19:52,760
\nthat you can see the power of
\nYahweh and work in their lives. <\/p>\n

292
\n00:19:53,040 –> 00:19:55,800
\nAnd what does it lead to?
\nIt leads to a change of <\/p>\n

293
\n00:19:55,800 –> 00:19:59,120
\ncharacter.
\nIt reads the reconciliation and <\/p>\n

294
\n00:19:59,120 –> 00:20:02,120
\nultimately to the saving of the
\nHouse of Jacob. <\/p>\n

295
\n00:20:03,240 –> 00:20:05,960
\nAnd so last piece that we just
\nbriefly looking at in the story <\/p>\n

296
\n00:20:05,960 –> 00:20:10,480
\nof Joseph, Joseph is revealed.
\nJoseph, their brother is <\/p>\n

297
\n00:20:10,480 –> 00:20:14,040
\nrevealed as their Savior.
\nNow looking at this summary, <\/p>\n

298
\n00:20:15,600 –> 00:20:18,880
\nwhere do our minds go in
\nscriptures to compare this, the <\/p>\n

299
\n00:20:18,880 –> 00:20:28,470
\nsecond advent of our Lord the
\nProphet Zechariah? <\/p>\n

300
\n00:20:29,790 –> 00:20:32,150
\nNow you can just consider
\nbriefly the summaries of chapter<\/p>\n

301
\n00:20:32,150 –> 00:20:34,750
\n10 to 14.
\nNow, these are not necessarily <\/p>\n

302
\n00:20:34,750 –> 00:20:38,720
\nin chronological order, but when
\nwe read chapters 10 to 14, we <\/p>\n

303
\n00:20:38,720 –> 00:20:41,600
\nread about the regathering and
\ncleansing of the nation of <\/p>\n

304
\n00:20:41,600 –> 00:20:43,680
\nIsrael.
\nWe read about them seeking the <\/p>\n

305
\n00:20:43,680 –> 00:20:47,400
\nGood Shepherd, and we read about
\nthe salvation of Jerusalem and <\/p>\n

306
\n00:20:47,400 –> 00:20:49,280
\nthe establishment of the
\nKingdom. <\/p>\n

307
\n00:20:50,120 –> 00:20:54,880
\nAnd in the midst of all this,
\nZechariah shares with us again a<\/p>\n

308
\n00:20:54,880 –> 00:20:59,520
\ndramatic unfolding with the
\nnation of Israel recognizes <\/p>\n

309
\n00:20:59,560 –> 00:21:02,920
\nJesus as their savior in a time
\nof need. <\/p>\n

310
\n00:21:04,600 –> 00:21:07,160
\nSo let’s let’s start in
\nZechariah chapter 10. <\/p>\n

311
\n00:21:08,480 –> 00:21:10,960
\nThis is a prophecy about the
\ndivine deliverance and the <\/p>\n

312
\n00:21:10,960 –> 00:21:12,760
\nregathering of the nation of
\nIsrael. <\/p>\n

313
\n00:21:13,000 –> 00:21:20,240
\nBut look how it starts.
\nHe starts off by instructing the<\/p>\n

314
\n00:21:20,240 –> 00:21:22,680
\nnation to pray to their God for
\nreign. <\/p>\n

315
\n00:21:22,680 –> 00:21:26,760
\nHe says, ask ye of the Lord
\nreign, ask ye. <\/p>\n

316
\n00:21:26,760 –> 00:21:32,640
\nThis is a prayer for help.
\nNow notice the time frame he <\/p>\n

317
\n00:21:32,640 –> 00:21:34,680
\nfollows this with the specific
\nseason. <\/p>\n

318
\n00:21:34,760 –> 00:21:37,160
\nThat’s the season of the latter
\nrains. <\/p>\n

319
\n00:21:37,640 –> 00:21:40,760
\nNow, we don’t use the term
\nformer and latter rains here in <\/p>\n

320
\n00:21:40,760 –> 00:21:43,640
\nthe West, right?
\nBut we often refer to this. <\/p>\n

321
\n00:21:44,000 –> 00:21:47,800
\nPerhaps the the poetic verse we
\nmight be familiar with is April <\/p>\n

322
\n00:21:47,800 –> 00:21:51,760
\nshowers bring May flowers.
\nYeah. <\/p>\n

323
\n00:21:51,760 –> 00:21:54,960
\nSo the point is the time of
\nlatter rains is that springtime.<\/p>\n

324
\n00:21:58,840 –> 00:22:02,960
\nThink about that for a second.
\nZechariah is instructing the <\/p>\n

325
\n00:22:02,960 –> 00:22:07,520
\npeople to pray for rain when
\nduring the rainy season. <\/p>\n

326
\n00:22:08,120 –> 00:22:11,880
\nWhat does this imply?
\nIt implies there is no rain. <\/p>\n

327
\n00:22:11,960 –> 00:22:15,480
\nThere’s no cloud in the sky when
\nrain is to be expected. <\/p>\n

328
\n00:22:17,000 –> 00:22:20,040
\nSo we conclude then they’re
\nexperiencing what they’re <\/p>\n

329
\n00:22:20,040 –> 00:22:22,200
\nexperiencing, drought.
\nThis is going to lead to a <\/p>\n

330
\n00:22:22,200 –> 00:22:26,280
\nfamine in the land.
\nAnd this is how Zechariah starts<\/p>\n

331
\n00:22:26,280 –> 00:22:29,400
\noff Chapter 10.
\nThere’s a famine in the land, <\/p>\n

332
\n00:22:30,000 –> 00:22:34,560
\njust like the time just before
\nJoseph reveals himself to his <\/p>\n

333
\n00:22:34,560 –> 00:22:40,240
\nbrethren in the latter days.
\nThere’s a famine in the land <\/p>\n

334
\n00:22:40,240 –> 00:22:43,520
\nbefore the nation is shown
\nmercy, before it’s redeemed, and<\/p>\n

335
\n00:22:43,520 –> 00:22:45,480
\nbefore it’s strengthened.
\nIf you were to follow through <\/p>\n

336
\n00:22:45,480 –> 00:22:50,880
\nthe chapter now worry about
\nreign in scriptures it usually <\/p>\n

337
\n00:22:50,880 –> 00:22:57,000
\nsignificant of blessings from
\nGod and whereas drought or <\/p>\n

338
\n00:22:57,000 –> 00:23:02,360
\nfamine generally represents
\nidolatry, apostasy or falling <\/p>\n

339
\n00:23:02,360 –> 00:23:05,480
\naway from God.
\nSo let’s look at chapter 10 <\/p>\n

340
\n00:23:05,480 –> 00:23:08,840
\nverse 2 Zechariah explains why
\nthey’ve been experiencing <\/p>\n

341
\n00:23:08,840 –> 00:23:13,480
\ndrought or a famine in the land.
\nHe says for the idols have <\/p>\n

342
\n00:23:13,480 –> 00:23:16,800
\nspoken vanity and the diviners
\nhave seen a lie and they have <\/p>\n

343
\n00:23:16,800 –> 00:23:20,200
\ntold false dreams.
\nWho does that remind us of? <\/p>\n

344
\n00:23:21,840 –> 00:23:24,120
\nJoseph’s brethren lied to their
\nfather. <\/p>\n

345
\n00:23:24,760 –> 00:23:27,480
\nThey scoffed at his dreams.
\nAnd so here we see again a <\/p>\n

346
\n00:23:27,480 –> 00:23:31,160
\nconnection between the nation of
\nIsrael in the latter days and <\/p>\n

347
\n00:23:31,160 –> 00:23:33,840
\nJoseph’s brethren back in
\nGenesis. <\/p>\n

348
\n00:23:35,400 –> 00:23:39,280
\nIt says they comfort in vain.
\nWhat’s the That’s the words that<\/p>\n

349
\n00:23:39,280 –> 00:23:42,960
\nwere used of Joseph’s brethren
\nas they were lousy comforters on<\/p>\n

350
\n00:23:42,960 –> 00:23:50,120
\nthe news of the death of Joseph.
\nAnd then Zechariah finishes this<\/p>\n

351
\n00:23:50,120 –> 00:23:53,880
\nverse off by saying, therefore
\nthey went their way as a flock. <\/p>\n

352
\n00:23:54,200 –> 00:23:56,840
\nThey were troubled because there
\nwas no shepherd. <\/p>\n

353
\n00:23:57,080 –> 00:24:01,240
\nAnd so he describes the nation
\nas apostate and leaderless, <\/p>\n

354
\n00:24:01,280 –> 00:24:04,720
\nscattered.
\nAnd again we see this <\/p>\n

355
\n00:24:04,720 –> 00:24:07,960
\ncomparison.
\nZechariah indicates that Israel <\/p>\n

356
\n00:24:07,960 –> 00:24:12,560
\nwill be in a period of apostasy
\nsimilar to the character and <\/p>\n

357
\n00:24:12,560 –> 00:24:17,200
\nattitude of Joseph’s brethren.
\nAnd Zechariah describes the <\/p>\n

358
\n00:24:17,200 –> 00:24:20,080
\nnation as a troubled flock
\nwithout a shepherd, again <\/p>\n

359
\n00:24:20,080 –> 00:24:23,760
\nsimilar to Joseph’s brethren who
\nare wandering the land looking <\/p>\n

360
\n00:24:23,760 –> 00:24:28,560
\nfor food.
\nVerse 3 after mentioning they <\/p>\n

361
\n00:24:28,560 –> 00:24:31,880
\nlacked a true shepherd, he makes
\nthis observation. <\/p>\n

362
\n00:24:32,800 –> 00:24:35,680
\nHe says mine anger was kindled
\nagainst the shepherds. <\/p>\n

363
\n00:24:36,080 –> 00:24:39,520
\nYou see, God was upset with the
\nshepherds they put in place in <\/p>\n

364
\n00:24:39,520 –> 00:24:43,360
\nthe absence of the true
\nshepherd, and these were <\/p>\n

365
\n00:24:43,360 –> 00:24:46,200
\nshepherds that had no regard for
\nthe flock. <\/p>\n

366
\n00:24:46,680 –> 00:24:48,200
\nConsider these comments from
\nZechariah. <\/p>\n

367
\n00:24:48,200 –> 00:24:51,480
\nIf you go over. 11 verse 5.
\nSorry. 11 verse 5 their own <\/p>\n

368
\n00:24:51,480 –> 00:24:56,600
\nshepherds pity them not. 11
\nverse 16. <\/p>\n

369
\n00:24:56,720 –> 00:24:59,760
\nI will raise up a shepherd in
\nthe land which shall not visit <\/p>\n

370
\n00:24:59,760 –> 00:25:02,640
\nthose that be cut off.
\nNeither shall seek the young <\/p>\n

371
\n00:25:02,640 –> 00:25:06,360
\none, nor heal that is broken,
\nnor feed that stands still, but <\/p>\n

372
\n00:25:06,360 –> 00:25:09,760
\nhe shall eat the flesh of the
\nfat and tear their claws in <\/p>\n

373
\n00:25:09,760 –> 00:25:11,480
\npieces.
\nAnd so the shepherds who were <\/p>\n

374
\n00:25:11,480 –> 00:25:16,840
\nset in place in the absence of
\nour Lord, will not do their <\/p>\n

375
\n00:25:16,840 –> 00:25:20,440
\nduty.
\nAnd what better imagery to bring<\/p>\n

376
\n00:25:20,440 –> 00:25:25,280
\nour minds back to Joseph than
\nthat of shepherds are the very <\/p>\n

377
\n00:25:25,280 –> 00:25:27,720
\noccupation of Jacob and his
\nsons. <\/p>\n

378
\n00:25:27,960 –> 00:25:32,600
\nIt was his sons who led the
\nflock from Shechem to Dothan. <\/p>\n

379
\n00:25:32,720 –> 00:25:36,480
\nIt was his sons that killed the
\nlamb for their brother’s blood. <\/p>\n

380
\n00:25:38,200 –> 00:25:40,400
\nFalse shepherds.
\nBad leaderships. <\/p>\n

381
\n00:25:40,760 –> 00:25:45,000
\nBad leadership reminds us of
\nReuben trying to take the <\/p>\n

382
\n00:25:45,000 –> 00:25:49,360
\nleadership, but he failed in
\nkeeping Joseph safe. <\/p>\n

383
\n00:25:50,040 –> 00:25:53,120
\nHe failed in understanding the
\nprinciples of atonement and <\/p>\n

384
\n00:25:53,120 –> 00:25:59,080
\nreconciliation by trying to
\noffer his sons in place of <\/p>\n

385
\n00:25:59,080 –> 00:26:03,240
\nJoseph or Jesus.
\nThat was removed through this <\/p>\n

386
\n00:26:03,240 –> 00:26:07,200
\nchapter in chapter 10.
\nJust just an interesting mention<\/p>\n

387
\n00:26:07,200 –> 00:26:10,120
\nhere in verse 6, we’ve got
\nmention of the House of Judah <\/p>\n

388
\n00:26:10,120 –> 00:26:13,640
\nand the House of Joseph, again,
\nlinking our minds back into the <\/p>\n

389
\n00:26:13,640 –> 00:26:16,040
\ntime of Genesis.
\nYou go over to Chapter 11 again,<\/p>\n

390
\n00:26:16,040 –> 00:26:18,440
\njust briefly.
\nThere’s another connection to <\/p>\n

391
\n00:26:18,440 –> 00:26:20,600
\nthe life and to the bondage of
\nJoseph. <\/p>\n

392
\n00:26:20,920 –> 00:26:23,480
\nIn this case here they’re
\ntalking about weighing the 30 <\/p>\n

393
\n00:26:23,480 –> 00:26:26,520
\npieces of silver.
\nWe know this is from Exodus <\/p>\n

394
\n00:26:26,520 –> 00:26:29,040
\nchapter 21, the price of a gorge
\nslave. <\/p>\n

395
\n00:26:29,400 –> 00:26:33,000
\nBut Joseph, like Jesus, was sold
\nfor money. <\/p>\n

396
\n00:26:33,600 –> 00:26:36,200
\nIn his case it was 20 pieces of
\nsilver. <\/p>\n

397
\n00:26:39,480 –> 00:26:42,920
\nNow, as you moved towards the
\nclimax of Zechariah’s prophecy, <\/p>\n

398
\n00:26:44,000 –> 00:26:48,400
\nit surrounds the revealing of
\nJesus as the Savior in a time of<\/p>\n

399
\n00:26:48,400 –> 00:26:52,560
\ntrouble.
\nNow having started off in a time<\/p>\n

400
\n00:26:53,000 –> 00:26:58,200
\nof famine, a period of apostasy,
\ndisobedience, we find that God <\/p>\n

401
\n00:26:58,200 –> 00:27:03,960
\nis working with them.
\nHe says this I will bring of the<\/p>\n

402
\n00:27:03,960 –> 00:27:08,160
\nthird part through the fire, and
\nwe’ll refine them as silver is <\/p>\n

403
\n00:27:08,160 –> 00:27:11,000
\nrefined and we’ll try them as
\ngold is tried. <\/p>\n

404
\n00:27:11,480 –> 00:27:14,560
\nAnd so here we see Zechariah is
\nmaking it clear God is working <\/p>\n

405
\n00:27:14,840 –> 00:27:18,280
\nwith with a remnant of the
\nnation, just as he worked with <\/p>\n

406
\n00:27:18,280 –> 00:27:21,600
\nJudah and his brethren.
\nAnd these are those that pretty <\/p>\n

407
\n00:27:21,600 –> 00:27:24,760
\nmuch inhabit Israel and
\nJerusalem at the time of the <\/p>\n

408
\n00:27:24,800 –> 00:27:29,000
\nend.
\nAnd it’s at this time we find <\/p>\n

409
\n00:27:29,000 –> 00:27:31,840
\nthat the armies of the north,
\nthey’re coming down into the <\/p>\n

410
\n00:27:31,840 –> 00:27:34,840
\nland they’ve taken or about to
\ntake Jerusalem, and they’re <\/p>\n

411
\n00:27:34,840 –> 00:27:37,680
\npersecuting its inhabitants in a
\nvery barbaric way. <\/p>\n

412
\n00:27:38,080 –> 00:27:40,920
\nAs you read through the first
\nfew verses of Zechariah 14, we <\/p>\n

413
\n00:27:40,920 –> 00:27:45,480
\nsee those points come out.
\nAnd as Zechariah points, it’s <\/p>\n

414
\n00:27:45,480 –> 00:27:48,560
\nseemingly that the as the
\nnation’s grasping for its last <\/p>\n

415
\n00:27:48,960 –> 00:27:53,720
\nbreath, the place is shaken by a
\ngreat earthquake. <\/p>\n

416
\n00:27:53,880 –> 00:27:56,880
\nAnd this is the point that we
\nsee that Jesus stands upon the <\/p>\n

417
\n00:27:56,880 –> 00:28:01,360
\nMount of Olives, which then
\ncleaves into two, and it creates<\/p>\n

418
\n00:28:01,360 –> 00:28:04,720
\nthis valley that points towards
\nJordan. <\/p>\n

419
\n00:28:04,720 –> 00:28:11,040
\nAnd it provides a way for the
\nnation to escape from the <\/p>\n

420
\n00:28:11,040 –> 00:28:13,400
\nnorthern oppressor.
\nAnd they’re going to escape down<\/p>\n

421
\n00:28:13,400 –> 00:28:16,880
\nthis valley into Jordan with the
\narmy on their tails. <\/p>\n

422
\n00:28:17,600 –> 00:28:21,040
\nAnd who do they meet?
\nIt’s at this point here that we <\/p>\n

423
\n00:28:21,040 –> 00:28:23,720
\nsee they’re saved by Christ and
\nthe Saints. <\/p>\n

424
\n00:28:25,000 –> 00:28:29,200
\nNow consider the response of the
\nnation of Israel at this time as<\/p>\n

425
\n00:28:29,200 –> 00:28:33,320
\nthey meet their Savior.
\nWe just go back to Zechariah <\/p>\n

426
\n00:28:33,320 –> 00:28:35,320
\nchapter 12 again.
\nThese these chapters are not in <\/p>\n

427
\n00:28:35,320 –> 00:28:39,560
\nchronological order, but in
\nZechariah 12 and verse 10, he <\/p>\n

428
\n00:28:39,560 –> 00:28:42,360
\ntalks about pouring out upon the
\nHouse of David and inhabitants <\/p>\n

429
\n00:28:42,360 –> 00:28:44,720
\nof Jerusalem.
\nAnd it says that they shall look<\/p>\n

430
\n00:28:44,720 –> 00:28:48,640
\nupon me whom they have pierced,
\nand they shall mourn for him as <\/p>\n

431
\n00:28:48,640 –> 00:28:52,520
\none mourns for his only Son, and
\nshall be in bitterness for him, <\/p>\n

432
\n00:28:52,960 –> 00:28:55,400
\nas one that is in bitterness for
\nhis first born. <\/p>\n

433
\n00:28:55,520 –> 00:28:58,120
\nAnd so they will finally
\nrecognize the one whom they <\/p>\n

434
\n00:28:58,120 –> 00:29:01,640
\npierced.
\nThey will mourn and be in <\/p>\n

435
\n00:29:01,640 –> 00:29:03,800
\nbitterness for their
\ndisobedience, for their <\/p>\n

436
\n00:29:03,800 –> 00:29:08,840
\nignorance, and they will be
\nsurprised as their Savior turns <\/p>\n

437
\n00:29:08,840 –> 00:29:13,440
\nout to be their brother.
\nThis is a highly emotional time <\/p>\n

438
\n00:29:14,920 –> 00:29:21,040
\nfor them as Joseph is revealed
\nand they take responsibility. <\/p>\n

439
\n00:29:21,280 –> 00:29:23,760
\nLook at this.
\nWe go to chapter 13 and verse <\/p>\n

440
\n00:29:23,760 –> 00:29:28,400
\none where the nation is now
\ncleansed from its iniquity, and <\/p>\n

441
\n00:29:28,400 –> 00:29:30,480
\nlook at the imagery.
\nLook at the wording pulled out <\/p>\n

442
\n00:29:30,480 –> 00:29:32,600
\nof here, Zechariah 13, verse
\none. <\/p>\n

443
\n00:29:32,600 –> 00:29:36,720
\nIn that day when Christ is
\nrevealed, when the nation is <\/p>\n

444
\n00:29:36,720 –> 00:29:40,440
\nsaved, in that day, there shall
\nbe a fountain open to the House <\/p>\n

445
\n00:29:40,440 –> 00:29:44,160
\nof David and to the habitants of
\nJerusalem for sin and for <\/p>\n

446
\n00:29:44,160 –> 00:29:47,520
\nuncleanness.
\nLook at the imagery being used. <\/p>\n

447
\n00:29:47,680 –> 00:29:52,880
\nIt reminds us back of Joseph
\nshedding his tears for his <\/p>\n

448
\n00:29:52,880 –> 00:29:57,000
\nbrethren.
\nHere’s the time when the nation <\/p>\n

449
\n00:29:57,120 –> 00:30:01,120
\nwill acknowledge their sins
\nbefore their Savior and God’s <\/p>\n

450
\n00:30:01,120 –> 00:30:04,840
\ngoing to provide a way to
\ncleanse them from their <\/p>\n

451
\n00:30:04,840 –> 00:30:10,360
\niniquity.
\nAs we continue on in chapter 13,<\/p>\n

452
\n00:30:10,760 –> 00:30:14,960
\nthe remnant acknowledges Jesus
\nand there and first thing we see<\/p>\n

453
\n00:30:15,560 –> 00:30:18,720
\nis a humbling of the false
\nprophets among them. <\/p>\n

454
\n00:30:19,240 –> 00:30:22,680
\nNow look at verse 5.
\nThis is our find that the the <\/p>\n

455
\n00:30:22,680 –> 00:30:24,800
\nKing James.
\nIt’s a little awkward in this <\/p>\n

456
\n00:30:24,800 –> 00:30:27,280
\nsection.
\nWell, we go to Zechariah 13 and <\/p>\n

457
\n00:30:27,280 –> 00:30:30,560
\nverse 5.
\nBut he shall say I am no <\/p>\n

458
\n00:30:30,560 –> 00:30:32,960
\nprophet.
\nI am an husbandman for man <\/p>\n

459
\n00:30:32,960 –> 00:30:35,600
\ntaught me to keep cattle from my
\nyouth. <\/p>\n

460
\n00:30:35,800 –> 00:30:38,920
\nNow this is clearly talking
\nabout the false prophets and <\/p>\n

461
\n00:30:38,920 –> 00:30:45,720
\nthey’re humbled at this point.
\nNow verse six, though, if you <\/p>\n

462
\n00:30:45,720 –> 00:30:48,880
\nnotice that the word one in the
\nKing James is in italics. <\/p>\n

463
\n00:30:49,040 –> 00:30:52,200
\nSo you take the word one out of
\nverse 6 and what do we have here<\/p>\n

464
\n00:30:52,800 –> 00:30:55,120
\nto read without the word 1?
\nWe can see it’s the false <\/p>\n

465
\n00:30:55,120 –> 00:30:58,480
\nprophets who are speaking.
\nAnd so the false prophets who <\/p>\n

466
\n00:30:58,480 –> 00:31:00,800
\nare speaking in verse 5.
\nThen in verse six. <\/p>\n

467
\n00:31:00,840 –> 00:31:06,120
\nAnd one shall say and shall say
\nthe false prophets unto him. <\/p>\n

468
\n00:31:06,560 –> 00:31:12,280
\nWell, who’s the him?
\nWell, what’s the question? <\/p>\n

469
\n00:31:12,680 –> 00:31:15,480
\nThe question is, what are these
\nwounds in thine hands? <\/p>\n

470
\n00:31:15,880 –> 00:31:19,880
\nWell, this is the same question
\nand the same evidence asked for <\/p>\n

471
\n00:31:19,880 –> 00:31:25,280
\nby Thomas, Thomas the Jew before
\nthe resurrected Lord. <\/p>\n

472
\n00:31:27,800 –> 00:31:32,640
\nAnd so here we see this is his,
\nthe brethren surrounding Jesus. <\/p>\n

473
\n00:31:32,720 –> 00:31:35,720
\nWho are you as he?
\nThey, as they start the <\/p>\n

474
\n00:31:35,720 –> 00:31:40,480
\nconversation about the wounds in
\nhis hands and they start talking<\/p>\n

475
\n00:31:40,480 –> 00:31:43,480
\nwith Jesus, learning or start
\ntalking with their Savior and <\/p>\n

476
\n00:31:43,480 –> 00:31:48,560
\nlearning it was Jesus and it’s
\nHe who’s their Savior both <\/p>\n

477
\n00:31:48,560 –> 00:31:50,400
\nnationally and during
\nArmageddon. <\/p>\n

478
\n00:31:51,360 –> 00:31:55,000
\nAnd it’s amazing because it’s
\nthrough the type of Joseph and <\/p>\n

479
\n00:31:55,000 –> 00:31:57,480
\nZechariah kind of talks about
\nthese events, but it’s through <\/p>\n

480
\n00:31:57,480 –> 00:32:02,800
\nthe type of Joseph that helps us
\nunderstand how emotional this <\/p>\n

481
\n00:32:02,800 –> 00:32:06,640
\ntime will be as Jesus reveals
\nhimself to his brethren as they <\/p>\n

482
\n00:32:06,640 –> 00:32:11,120
\ngather around to him.
\nWe think of the tears of Joseph <\/p>\n

483
\n00:32:12,000 –> 00:32:15,280
\nas he’s surrounded by his
\nbrother to talk about these <\/p>\n

484
\n00:32:15,280 –> 00:32:20,680
\nthings.
\nNow to finish off Zechariah, we <\/p>\n

485
\n00:32:20,680 –> 00:32:23,320
\ncome to chapter 14, your last
\nfew verses. <\/p>\n

486
\n00:32:23,760 –> 00:32:27,520
\nAnd in verse 16 here we see that
\nall nations come up. <\/p>\n

487
\n00:32:27,520 –> 00:32:30,520
\nThis is after Armageddon, after
\nChrist, and the Saints have set <\/p>\n

488
\n00:32:30,520 –> 00:32:34,040
\nthemselves up in Jerusalem and
\nthe nation’s been converted. <\/p>\n

489
\n00:32:34,760 –> 00:32:38,760
\nAnd we have all nations coming
\nhere to worship the king. <\/p>\n

490
\n00:32:39,600 –> 00:32:43,280
\nAnd look at look at the words
\nthat that Zechariah says. <\/p>\n

491
\n00:32:43,760 –> 00:32:47,280
\nHe says everyone that has left
\nof all the nations which came <\/p>\n

492
\n00:32:47,280 –> 00:32:51,840
\nagainst Jerusalem shall even go
\nup, yeah, to year to year to <\/p>\n

493
\n00:32:51,840 –> 00:32:55,360
\nworship the King, the Lord of
\nhosts, and to keep the Feast of <\/p>\n

494
\n00:32:55,360 –> 00:32:58,440
\nTabernacles.
\nSo all nations coming up, just <\/p>\n

495
\n00:32:58,440 –> 00:33:00,120
\nlike all the nations went down
\ninto Egypt. <\/p>\n

496
\n00:33:00,800 –> 00:33:04,040
\nAnd it shall come to and it
\nshall be that whosoever will not<\/p>\n

497
\n00:33:04,040 –> 00:33:06,360
\ncome up of all the families of
\nthe earth to Jerusalem to <\/p>\n

498
\n00:33:06,360 –> 00:33:09,320
\nworship the King, the Lord of
\nhosts, even upon them shall be <\/p>\n

499
\n00:33:10,080 –> 00:33:14,920
\nno rain, no food, just like the
\ntime of Joseph. <\/p>\n

500
\n00:33:15,400 –> 00:33:19,680
\nGod put those vents into place
\nto bring them down into Egypt. <\/p>\n

501
\n00:33:20,400 –> 00:33:22,560
\nLikewise, at the time of the
\nend, those nations who don’t <\/p>\n

502
\n00:33:22,560 –> 00:33:25,840
\ncome up to Jerusalem will be in
\na time of famine. <\/p>\n

503
\n00:33:26,360 –> 00:33:28,800
\nAnd who’s the example that
\nZechariah uses? <\/p>\n

504
\n00:33:29,920 –> 00:33:34,840
\nWell, in verse 18, if the family
\nof Egypt go not up, they shall <\/p>\n

505
\n00:33:34,840 –> 00:33:37,320
\nhave no ring and and they shall
\nbe plagued. <\/p>\n

506
\n00:33:37,640 –> 00:33:40,560
\nVerse 19, this should be the
\npunishment of Egypt. <\/p>\n

507
\n00:33:40,760 –> 00:33:45,920
\nAnd so it’s interesting that
\nZechariah uses Egypt as a <\/p>\n

508
\n00:33:45,920 –> 00:33:48,720
\nrepresentative of rebellious
\nnations, again bringing our <\/p>\n

509
\n00:33:48,720 –> 00:33:52,480
\nminds back to the story of
\nJoseph. <\/p>\n

510
\n00:33:55,960 –> 00:34:01,240
\nSo in summary, we’ve seen how
\nthe life of Joseph foreshadows <\/p>\n

511
\n00:34:01,240 –> 00:34:08,159
\nthe 1st and 2nd advent of Jesus
\nChrist and with a with a <\/p>\n

512
\n00:34:08,280 –> 00:34:12,120
\nspecific focus on the revealing
\nof Jesus as their savior. <\/p>\n

513
\n00:34:12,840 –> 00:34:16,159
\nNow, while Zechariah outlines
\nthese events and he helps us to <\/p>\n

514
\n00:34:16,159 –> 00:34:20,360
\nunderstand that these things
\npoint forward, it’s the type <\/p>\n

515
\n00:34:20,520 –> 00:34:24,840
\nthat we see in Joseph which
\ngives us this beautiful imagery <\/p>\n

516
\n00:34:25,679 –> 00:34:29,560
\nof how emotional it will be as
\nJesus stands in the midst of his<\/p>\n

517
\n00:34:29,560 –> 00:34:35,760
\nbrethren who repent and
\nacknowledge their God with a new<\/p>\n

518
\n00:34:35,760 –> 00:34:42,000
\nheart.
\nAnd we as Christadelphians, we <\/p>\n

519
\n00:34:42,000 –> 00:34:44,960
\ncan be there to witness this in
\nthat day. <\/p>\n

520
\n00:34:44,960 –> 00:34:49,840
\nAs immortalized Saints, we know
\nwho the Redeemer is. <\/p>\n

521
\n00:34:51,120 –> 00:34:55,360
\nBut the challenge for us is the
\nsame challenge for the brethren <\/p>\n

522
\n00:34:55,360 –> 00:34:59,680
\nof Joseph.
\nAnd so we need to change our <\/p>\n

523
\n00:34:59,680 –> 00:35:03,640
\nways.
\nWe need to be true men, and we <\/p>\n

524
\n00:35:03,640 –> 00:35:06,640
\nneed to seek the will of our
\nheavenly Father. <\/p>\n

525
\n00:35:06,640 –> 00:35:11,360
\nAnd we’re going to close with
\nthe words that will be spoken by<\/p>\n

526
\n00:35:11,360 –> 00:35:14,120
\nthe remnant of Israel in their
\nday of salvation. <\/p>\n

527
\n00:35:14,200 –> 00:35:17,000
\nHe says in Zechariah 13, verse
\n9, this is talking about the <\/p>\n

528
