These are notes from Old Testament class, Sunday, November 25, 2007
We examined the early life of Joseph, noting his tattle-tailing on his brothers, his royal coat, and his dreams about his superiority over his brothers and his parents which caused great jealousy and hatred towards him. The brothers plotted to kill him but Reuben, the eldest, persuaded them to put Joseph in a pit instead. Reuben planned to rescue his brother and return him to his father, but his brothers sold Joseph into slavery. Several questions were discussed in small groups, including "In what ways is the soul of humanity it a pit?"
Please continue reading the story of Joseph in Genesis for further discussion next week.
