yesterday sunday morning, i was watching a cartoon that showed how Joseph re-united with his brothers after all he went through with them(his brothers) and in Egypt.... i found myself crying why?..the "Family reunion" was overwhelming...a sure analogy to the father of spirits impending "family re-union"...i.e that time would come when "He would unite all things both in heaven and on earth"..."when He truly becomes the saviour of the world"..."when His judgments will be in the earth and the world would learn righteousness"..." when He becomes all in all"....i foresee lots of tears rolling down our eyes when His grandest plan would be revealed THE SALVATION OF ALL...how be it let things remain as they are..the evils..false prophets..veiling of the gospel to many...the understanding of the truth by the few etc it is all of God and no one could have "coded" it better- lots of luv to you all we'll meet on that day Shola Jacobs

Oh wow!!

My old age is catching up with me.  Except that I'm not 50 yet.  Maybe I can find another excuse?   :o

Shola Jacobs, you expressed the vision of the coming kingdom so well, a grand family re-union. I, too, see the story of Joseph and his brothers and their reconciliation as a type for when we all embrace our former folk who are now estranged from us, whether through physical distance, death, or sin. As a divorced woman, I mourn the loss of my first family, I still ache that the father of my children is distant and far-off from them, but I know someday all will be well. I love that story as a hope and promise.

Last time I read through the Old Testament, I was struck by the breastplate description, actually, all of the descriptions of the priests' clothing, down to the pomegranate trim. I'd love to learn more about the symbolism.
