Genesis 45:7
"And God sent me before you to preserve you a
posterity in the earth, and to save your
lives by a great deliverance."
It may be that we have here an exact representation of a scene which shall be transacted some day, when our Lord makes His return to receive His brethren. The Apostle Paul tells us that ultimately all Israel shall be saved; and may not this be brought about, when He says to them, "I am Jesus, your brother, whom ye delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate"? Was not Joseph’s wife rejoiced by his joy, and will not the Church of the redeemed be glad when that great reconciliation takes effect?
What a beautiful interpretation Joseph per trade on their act of treachery "God did send me before you" Let us always trace God’s plan in the malevolence and opposition of men. They could have no power at all, unless it was given them from above. Joseph supplied all their needs, wagons to carry, food to nourish, raiment to clothe, and greetings to welcome!
One cannot fail to see in the history of Joseph one of the most remarkable types of the Lord Jesus, and that, in many details of the ways of God in regard to the Jews and Gentiles. "Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy" (Rom. 11:31).
Amen!
