Genesis 42:8
Excerpted from: How God Deals With Conscience (Part Five)Let us look at the parallels here between Joseph and Jesus, they may be seen in several ways. One parallel is that Joseph knew his brothers before they knew him, but the brothers thought he was some mysterious Egyptian ruler, whom they knew nothing at all about, other than the fact that he was powerful. They did not perceive that he was Joseph until he revealed himself on this occasion.
Genesis 42:6-8
Excerpted from: Examining God's JudgmentsI want us to turn to a series of scriptures that gives us a preview of what is going to occur in the next judgment. We are going to go back to Genesis 42 in the story of the reconciliation of Joseph and his brothers. Every last detail of this story does not fit perfectly, but the overall principle does. In verses 6-8 we just get a picture of Joseph's regal position.
