Genesis 37:1 - 40:23
December 6th - 12th, 2020
Matt 22:3
John 15:15
Amos 2:6–3:8
Acts 7:9-16
Israel loves his son so much, he gives him a coat, like a family coat; something you would give a first-born. Joseph was the first-born of Rachel. This display of favoritism to one son caused a wild degree of resentment and jealousy. Do you think this is the kind of jealousy that Yahweh will provoke in Judah, as we see in Romans 11:11?
