Reading
Genesis 37
Questions
1. Let's look at what Scripture tells us of Joseph as a kid. Joseph is first seen in Genesis 30:22-24. In this passage, what is implied about Rachel in verse 22?
2. Although Rachel struggled with discontent, she must have prayed. How important is it for us to pray about our burdens?
3. Genesis 33:1-7 is the second time we find Joseph. Jacob is afraid that Esau may follow through with his threat of killing Jacob. Why do you think Jacob lined up his family the way he did in Genesis 33:1-7?
4. It could be that Joseph and Rachel were considered Jacob's most prize possessions, so he gave them premium protection. What we prize in life is what we protect, guard, and are willing to fight for. What is the most important thing in your life?

Hey Jason...doesn't this chapter lead one to believe that Judah was not 14 when his first son was born, as the author said a few days ago? Genesis 37 puts Joseph at 17 years of age. We know from earlier accounts that Judah was older than Joseph. And the wording in Genesis 38:1 suggests that Judah didn't go get married until after this event with Joseph. Things that make you go, "Hmmmmmm...."
