Genesis 42
I'm not going to keep you very long tonight, so if you have your Bibles with you, if you would be finding your way to Genesis 42. We are quickly coming to the conclusion of a series of studies we began about two and a half years ago, through this beginning book in your Bible, the book of Genesis. We called this study, The Book of Beginnings: Creation, Fall, Flood, and Covenant.
And tonight, we come to Genesis 42, beginning in verse number one. I don't have any intention of getting all the way through this particular study tonight. We're going to take our time because this study is going to cover Genesis 42 over into the beginning verses of Genesis 45. And so, we're not in any hurry. We've been here about two and a half years already, and so what's the rush?
So tonight we're looking at an encounter in Egypt. If you have made your way finally there to Genesis ... by the way, it shouldn't take you that long, it is the first book in the Bible. But Genesis 42:1, if you found your way there, say amen. All right, let's just read those first eight verses together as a way of getting our minds and hearts going all in the same direction together this evening. ''When Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, ''Why do you look at one another?'' 2 And he said, ''Indeed I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down to that place and buy for us there, that we may live and not die.'' 3 So Joseph's ten brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt. 4 But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother, Benjamin with his brothers,'' That's key, that's very important. That's starred, underline that, asterisks out to the side.
''4 But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother, Benjamin with his brothers, for he said, ''Lest some calamity befall him.'' 5 And the sons of Israel went to buy grain among those who journeyed, for the famine was in the land of Canaan. 6 ...
