Genesis 40:23

"Who remembered us in our low estate: for His mercy endureth forever" (Psa. 136:23). "Who remembered us." This is in striking and blessed contrast from our forgettings of Him. Like every other faculty of our beings, the memory has been affected by the Fall and bears on it the marks of depravity. Thi... Read More

Now we get back in chapter thirty-nine to the story again. This is just a little interlude and it is just sort of a parenthetical-kind of a thing thrown in and now we get back to Joseph.

The following incident took place 1,730 years before Christ. The life of Joseph is described in Genesis 37-50. This young man underwent a lot of pain even when it wasn’t his fault.

Acts XXIII. 6-8 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question. And when he had so said, there arose a dissensio... Read More

At Corinth the apostle had to occupy himself with the corruption of various errors and abuses, and was thus hinder... Read More

Genesis 40:23 “Yet the chief butler did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.” The weariness of travel is greatly compounded when you have only a foggy notion of where you are going and no idea of how to get there. For Joseph it was not only not knowing how his dreams were going to come true, but the... Read More
