Brothers.
JUNIOR TOPlC—Joseph, the Forglv
ing Brother,
INTIERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
lC—Joseph as Son and Brother.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—The Inspiring Example of Joseph.
While the climax of the story 18
reached In Joseph's revelatlon to hls
brethren yet his life should be briefly
sketched In order to get the full force
of this cllmax,
I. Loved by His Father; Hated by
His Brethren (Genesis 37). The be
trayal of the father's partlality In
creased his brothers’ hatred for him.
His dreams were prophecles of God's
denling with them.
111. Sold Into Slavery (Genesls 87).
So Intensely did they hate him that
they proposed to kill him, Thls mur
derous purpose was turned aslde by
the proposition to sell him into slav
ery. They sold him to merchantmen
who were golng down Into Egypt and
In turn they sold him as a slave.
111. Cast Into Prison (Genesls 39).
While serving as a slave he wns false
ly accused and sent to prison. Jo
seph’'s character had so Impressed
Potiphar that he doubted his wife's
charges against him. If he had be
lHeved her he would have put this
Hebrew slave to death,
IV. Made Prime Minister (Genesis
41). Though falsely accused and fm
prisoned the hand of the Lord was so
upon him that he was soon exalted to
the throne of Pharaoh,
V. His Dealing With His Brethren
(Genesls 41-44). He dealt harshly
with them, desirlng to test their char
acters hefore revealing hluself to
them.
VI. Joseph Reveals Himself to His
Brethren (Genesis 45:1-15).
1. Alone With Hlis Brothers (vv.
1-2). When his pent-up emotlons could
no longer be restrained he ordered all
the men to withdraw. Here alone
with his brethren he made himself
known to them. There are some emo
tlons too sacred to disclose In the
presence of unsympathetic men.
2. Consclence Smitten Brothers (v.
3). When Joseph disclosed his iden
tity they stood condemned in his pres
ence, They were smitten with a gullty
consclence. A score of years before
they had put him Into a pit to dle, but
Inter lifted him eut and sold him into
slavery. Now they are before him with
reversed positions, They are at his
mercy. Some day every mnn shall
fuce his sins unless they be eanceled
In the blood of Jesus.
3. Divine Providence Interpreted
(vv. 4-8). (1) His gractous invitation
(v. 4). “Come near, I am your broth
er) How llke the Savior. He I 8 sny-
Ing unto slnners who have wronged
him, “Come near, I am your brother,"
(2) “Be not grleved” (v, 5). He sought
by these words to allny the distress
in which his brothers were, Jesus is
saylng the same kind words to repent
ant sinners today. (3) “God sent me
to preserve life” (vv, 5-8). God turned
the wicked thoughts of these hrethren
to good. God s today making the
wrath of wen to pralse him, Al that
Satan ean do but furthers God's pur
poses. The very wicked thoughts of
these hrothers In attempting to de
stroy Joseph were turned to the pres
ervation of thelr llves,
4. Joseph's Messuge to His Father
(vv, 0-13). (1) *“God hath mnde me
Lord of Egypt” (v. 9). He mude them
hasten to his father with the assur
ance that God had elevated him to u
place of lordshin In Egypt. (2) Urgent
