Joseph is faithful in Potiphar's house and the prison, and this points us to Jesus and gives us an example to follow.

God works through the broken situation of Judah and Tamar to bring Jesus into the world.

Through the story of the betrayal of Joseph and selling him into slavery we see that God is sovereign over sin and suffering.

Genesis 36-37:11 shows us what real blessing is through the details about Esau and the introductory story of Joseph. Real blessing blessing is a life receiving the love of God in Jesus and content with waiting on the promises of God while having nothing but him.

Jesus makes himself known to us in the Scriptures and in the Supper.

The Resurrection of Jesus really happened, which means that the new creation is breaking in right now, all of God’s promises are true, sin is defeated, and life with God is available.

Jesus gives us the Lord’s Supper as a gift of grace to strengthen our faith in Him and communion with Him.

Even after seeing God’s faithfulness to Jacob, in the light of the brokenness of the world around us, we are left aching for all this brokenness to be made right once and for all.

The story of Genesis 34 shows us God's justice, the heart of God, and the good news of the gospel.
