~ Gen 50
- Genesis starts with creation and life and it ends with death and funerals. What has impacted you in our study of Genesis?
- Jacob and Joseph left instructions for after they were “gathered to their people.” Have you made arrangements, or do your people know your wishes after you are “gathered to your people?” Are your people Jesus people?
- How does Joseph’s humility in v.4 allow for Pharaoh’s generosity and honor in v.6-7?
- Even after 17 years reconciled, what is the difference between Joseph’s understanding of forgiveness and his brothers’ (v.15)?
- Why did Joseph weep in v.17?
- Like the brothers in verse 18, is it hard for you to accept forgiveness or then extend it?
- Like Joseph in v.19, can you accept from God even what you do not like or understand?
- Have you found v.20 to be true in your life?
