the wife of his master tries to seduce him he rejects it she accuses him of raping her and so he is thrown falsely accused thrown in prison he had done nothing wrong innocent and yet he’s falsely accused another shadow of [Music] Messiah we are moving forward in one of the series we’re doing several different series on Friday and we’re changing them uh we rotate them but this one is one opening up an amazing foreshadow of the Messiah in the first book of the Bible and I love this because it’s deep and it’s just glorifies the Lord and um and it
and it’s you may be as I’m sharing this you may see other things that I’m not even talking about because this is so rich what’s in here this is the foreshadow of Messiah it is the actual account of the man called ysep or Joseph and let’s begin let me just we’re not at this part but we want to just kind of recap so in this Genesis 37 open up or as we look to look to verse one Jacob lived in the land where his father had sojourned in the land of Canaan these are the records of the generations of Jacob Joseph when he was 17 years old
was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth along with the sons of bilha Sons of zilpa his father’s wives and Joseph brought back a bad report about them to their father now Israel that’s Jacob loved Joseph more than his the rest of his sons because he was a son of his old age he made him a very very colored tunic his brothers saw that his father loved him more than all his brothers and so they hated him and could not speak on friendly terms with him then Joseph had a dream and he told his brothers when
they told it to them they hated him even more okay he tells his dream so it begins with Joseph the dreamer he has a dream and the dream he has is one of sheaves of grain of his brothers 12 of them bowing down to his then he has another dream where where basically the Sun the moon and the stars are basically bowing down to him and so and so his brothers hate him even more because of the dreams but also because he’s the Beloved he’s loved even more and so the amazing thing beyond the story the story is real and it happened and I was
actually in the West Bank not long ago where in Samaria we’re going to go there in the mystery you actually see where Joseph was but it is also an amazing shadow of the Messiah Joseph even the rabbis saw the story of Joseph as being a shadow of the Messiah who was going to come now they didn’t know it was Jesus but they still spoke about saying this is what Messiah is going to be like we’re going to talk about dreams uh that or actually the that’s what it has to do with it has to do with the man who was the master of dreams you see the title
here is in Hebrew uh ba try that halot okay that’s not not so easy but B that means the Lord of Dreams or the master of Dreams or the dream master that’s the word used in this text and it’s an amazing title dreams we all have them and uh you know we always get if you’re a pastor you always get people coming up and they will say here’s my dream what in mean and it could be from the Lord most of our dreams are just dreams but the Lord can speak and I’ve seen that as well in my life occasionally something can be of the
