Reading
Genesis 37
Questions
1. The third mention of Joseph is his name in a list with his brothers in Genesis 35:24. What happened to Joseph's mother right before this? (Genesis 35:16-20)
2. Joseph got a little brother and lost his mother on the same day. It's tough to grow up, especially without a mom. Do you know anyone whose mom has already died?
3. How could you be an encouragement to them?
4. The fourth mention of Joseph is Genesis 37:1-2. Nobody wants to be called a tattletale - they have a way of getting us into trouble. There are two very different approaches to Genesis 37:1-2. Either Joseph was simply giving the facts and telling his dad what was going on or he was selfishly trying to get his brothers into trouble. (By the way, if we don't do anything bad, then we cannot be tattled on.) What is the difference between telling someone who can help and malicious gossip?

-She died
-If the situation involves them or someone else being hurt,someone who can help should be told.
1. She died and was buried.
2. Lots of people now. When I was a teen? I can't think of many, if any.
3. Pray for them...especially at holidays and the anniversary of the death. Reach out to them as a mom would, if they are agreeable.
4. Telling someone who can help implies a concern on our part for their well-being. Gossip only implies a selfish desire to make one's self look good and the other person look bad. It does not have the best interest of the other in mind.
1.she died
2.not that i can think of
4.that person can get hurt and find out they were talking about them.
1. Joseph's mother died.
2. Yep.
3. Remind them that they'll get to see their mother again, and let them know they aren't the only ones who miss people in their family so they're not alone.
4. Gossiping is just talking about someone behind their backs just for the sake of talking about it, but if you tell someone who can help than you're doing the person a favor.
1. she died
2. no not really
3. pray and help them throught the hard time and just be a good friend.
4. well if that person finds out they can get really hurt we found that out the hard way this year.
1. She died

4. someone who can help is like a adult. gossip is bad.
questions:
1.rachel had another son but died after she had him.
2.ummm......i dont think so... i dont even know where i would be without my mom though..
3.i can just tell them that everything happens for a reason and that God uses these situations for good.also that God will never give us more than we can handle.
4.well, gossiping is telling everyone you know about it and bringing down the person and talking bad about them but getting them help is telling someone you know would help them and confron them about it but telling them and not making them look like a horrible person.
1. She died.
2. Can't think of anyone right now.
3. I can comfort them and tell them to look for help in God.
4. When we tell someone who can help we are tryong to fix the problem, when we gossip we are just making the issue bigger. (creating a storm in a cup of water)
