It's Day 8 and we're in Genesis 37.
We're going to be reading the Joseph stories out of Genesis. In many ways, he's the most impressive character in Genesis, although he does give into resentment in meeting his brothers in Egypt.
Where God Spoke To Me:
- Verse 34 - Did the brothers think about the consequence to their Dad before they did it, or were they just focused on their own feelings?
Help:
- Verse 3 - "Israel" is Jacob.
- Verse 3 - Yes, this is bad parenting. Genesis tells what they did, but that doesn't mean what they did was always right.

Your Comments and Questions:
- "The Bible says "Words of Christ in Red". When I read; I have been assuming the words in red are those of Jesus Christ...so he is the one speaking. In Matthew 20 Verse 18; it reads in red: Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death," I thought Son of Man was Jesus Christ. If words of Christ are in red; why does it sound like someone else is speaking? Am I reading wrong? Am I assuming wrong?" - "Son of Man" does refer to Jesus. He is speaking of Himself. He uses the phrase "Son of Man" because there are Old Testament prophecies associated with that title. He's trying to put His upcoming death in the context of fulfilling prophecy.
