Six Days of Creation and the Sabbath
Gen 2.4b-9; Job 38.4-11; Jn 1.1-5
In the beginning when God createda the
heavens and the earth,
the earth was a formless void and darkness
covered the face of the deep, while a wind
from Godb swept over the face of the waters.
Then God said, "Let there be light"; and
there was light.
And God saw that the light was good; and
God separated the light from the darkness.
God called the light Day, and the darkness
he called Night. And there was evening and
there was morning, the first day.
And God said, "Let there be a dome in the
midst of the waters, and let it separate the
waters from the waters."
So God made the dome and separated the
waters that were under the dome from the
waters that were above the dome. And it was
so.
God called the dome Sky. And there was
evening and there was morning, the second
day.
And God said, "Let the waters under the sky
be gathered together into one place, and let
the dry land appear." And it was so.
God called the dry land Earth, and the waters
that were gathered together he called Seas.
And God saw that it was good.

upon the earth, and there was no one to till
the ground;

water the whole face of the ground --

his nostrils the breath of life; and the man
became a living being.

Out of the ground the LORD God made to
grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight
and good for food, the tree of life also in
the midst of the garden, and the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil.
A river flows out of Eden to water the garden,
and from there it divides and becomes four
branches.
The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one
that flows around the whole land of Havilah,
where there is gold;
and the gold of that land is good; bdellium
and onyx stone are there.
The name of the second river is Gihon; it is
the one that flows around the whole land of
Cush.
The name of the third river is Tigris, which
flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is
the Euphrates.
The LORD God took the man and put him
in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.
And the LORD God commanded the man,
"You may freely eat of every tree of the
garden;
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you
eat of it you shall die."
Then the LORD God said, "It is not good
that the man should be alone; I will make
him a helper as his partner."

Cain, so that no one who came upon him

Then Cain went away from the presence of

Beginnings of Civilization
Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and
bore Enoch; and he built a city, and named it
Enoch after his son Enoch.
To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad was the
father of Mehujael, and Mehujael the father
of Methushael, and Methushael the father of
Lamech.
Lamech took two wives; the name of the one
was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
Adah bore Jabal; he was the ancestor of those
who live in tents and have livestock.
His brother's name was Jubal; he was the
ancestor of all those who play the lyre and
pipe.
Zillah bore Tubal-cain, who made all kinds
of bronze and iron tools. The sister of Tubal-
cain was Naamah.
Lamech said to his wives:
"Adah and Zillah, hear my voice;

The Nephilim were on the earth in those
days -- and also afterward -- when the sons
of God went in to the daughters of humans,
who bore children to them. These were the
heroes that were of old, warriors of renown.
The LORD saw that the wickedness of
humankind was great in the earth, and that
every inclination of the thoughts of their
hearts was only evil continually.
And the LORD was sorry that he had made
humankind on the earth, and it grieved him
to his heart.
So the LORD said, "I will blot out from the
earth the human beings I have created --
people together with animals and creeping
things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that
I have made them.”
But Noah found favor in the sight of the
LORD.
Noah Pleases God
Heb 11.7; 1 Pet 3.20
These are the descendants of Noah. Noah was
a righteous man, blameless in his generation;
Noah walked with God.
And Noah had three sons, Shem, Ham, and
Japheth.
Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight,
and the earth was filled with violence.
And God saw that the earth was corrupt; for
all flesh had corrupted its ways upon the earth.

At the end of forty days Noah opened the
window of the ark that he had made
and sent out the raven; and it went to and
fro until the waters were dried up from the
earth.
Then he sent out the dove from him, to see if
the waters had subsided from the face of the
ground;
but the dove found no place to set its foot,
and it returned to him to the ark, for the
waters were still on the face of the whole
earth. So he put out his hand and took it and
brought it into the ark with him.
He waited another seven days, and again he
sent out the dove from the ark;
and the dove came back to him in the evening,
and there in its beak was a freshly plucked
olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had
subsided from the earth.
Then he waited another seven days, and sent
out the dove; and it did not return to him any
more.
In the six hundred first year, in the first month,
the first day of the month, the waters were
dried up from the earth; and Noah removed
the covering of the ark, and looked, and saw
that the face of the ground was drying.
In the second month, on the twenty-seventh
day of the month, the earth was dry.
Then God said to Noah,
"Go out of the ark, you and your wife, and
your sons and your sons' wives with you.
Bring out with you every living thing that is
with you of all flesh -- birds and animals and
every creeping thing that creeps on the earth

So Noah went out with his sons and his wife
and his sons' wives.
And every animal, every creeping thing, and
every bird, everything that moves on the
earth, went out of the ark by families.
God’s Promise to Noah
Then Noah built an altar to the LORD,
and took of every clean animal and of every
clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the
altar.
And when the LORD smelled the pleasing
odor, the LORD said in his heart, "I will
never again curse the ground because of
humankind, for the inclination of the human
heart is evil from youth; nor will I ever again
destroy every living creature as I have done.
As long as the earth endures,
seedtime and harvest, cold and heat,
summer and winter, day and night,

The Covenant with Noah
God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to
them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the
earth.
The fear and dread of you shall rest on every
animal of the earth, and on every bird of the
air, on everything that creeps on the ground,
and on all the fish of the sea; into your hand
they are delivered.

So Abram went, as the LORD had told him;
and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-
five years old when he departed from Haran.
Abram took his wife Sarai and his brother's
son Lot, and all the possessions that they had
gathered, and the persons whom they had
acquired in Haran; and they set forth to go to
the land of Canaan. When they had come to
the land of Canaan,
Abram passed through the land to the place
at Shechem, to the oakb of Moreh. At that
time the Canaanites were in the land.
Then the LORD appeared to Abram, and
said, "To your offspringc I will give this land."
So he built there an altar to the LORD, who
had appeared to him.
From there he moved on to the hill country
on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent,
with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east;
and there he built an altar to the LORD and
invoked the name of the LORD.

Abram and Sarai in Egypt
Now there was a famine in the land. So
Abram went down to Egypt to reside there
as an alien, for the famine was severe in the
land.
When he was about to enter Egypt, he said
to his wife Sarai, "I know well that you are a
woman beautiful in appearance;
and when the Egyptians see you, they will
say, 'This is his wife'; then they will kill me,
but they will let you live.
Say you are my sister, so that it may go well
with me because of you, and that my life may
be spared on your account."
When Abram entered Egypt the Egyptians
saw that the woman was very beautiful.
When the officials of Pharaoh saw her, they
praised her to Pharaoh. And the woman was
taken into Pharaoh's house.
And for her sake he dealt well with Abram;
and he had sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male
and female slaves, female donkeys, and
camels.
But the LORD afflicted Pharaoh and his
house with great plagues because of Sarai,
Abram's wife.

tell me that she was your wife?

listened to the voice of Sarai.
So, after Abram had lived ten years in the
land of Canaan, Sarai, Abram's wife, took
Hagar the Egyptian, her slave-girl, and gave
her to her husband Abram as a wife.
He went in to Hagar, and she conceived; and
when she saw that she had conceived, she
looked with contempt on her mistress.
Then Sarai said to Abram, "May the wrong
done to me be on you! I gave my slave-girl to
your embrace, and when she saw that she had
conceived, she looked on me with contempt.
May the LORD judge between you and me!"
But Abram said to Sarai, "Your slave-girl is
in your power; do to her as you please." Then
Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she ran away
from her.
The angel of the LORD found her by a spring
of water in the wilderness, the spring on the
way to Shur.
And he said, "Hagar, slave-girl of Sarai,
where have you come from and where are you
going?" She said, "I am running away from

But they replied, "Stand back!" And they

But he lingered; so the men seized him and
his wife and his two daughters by the hand,
the LORD being merciful to him, and they
brought him out and left him outside the
city.
When they had brought them outside, theya
said, "Flee for your life; do not look back or
stop anywhere in the Plain; flee to the hills,
or else you will be consumed."
And Lot said to them, "Oh, no, my lords;

you have shown me great kindness in saving
my life; but I cannot flee to the hills, for fear
the disaster will overtake me and I die.
Look, that city is near enough to flee to, and

He said to him, "Very well, I grant you this
favor too, and will not overthrow the city of
which you have spoken.
Hurry, escape there, for I can do nothing
until you arrive there." Therefore the city was
called Zoar.b
The sun had risen on the earth when Lot

But Lot's wife, behind him, looked back, and

Abraham went early in the morning to the
place where he had stood before the LORD;
and he looked down toward Sodom and
Gomorrah and toward all the land of the
Plain and saw the smoke of the land going
up like the smoke of a furnace.
So it was that, when God destroyed the cities
of the Plain, God remembered Abraham, and
sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow,
when he overthrew the cities in which Lot
had settled.
The Shameful Origin of Moab and
Ammon
Now Lot went up out of Zoar and settled in
the hills with his two daughters, for he was
afraid to stay in Zoar; so he lived in a cave
with his two daughters.
And the firstborn said to the younger, "Our
father is old, and there is not a man on earth
to come in to us after the manner of all the
world.
Come, let us make our father drink wine, and
we will lie with him, so that we may preserve

So they made their father drink wine that
night; and the firstborn went in, and lay with

Now Abimelech had not approached her; so

Then Abraham said to his young men, "Stay
here with the donkey; the boy and I will go
over there; we will worship, and then we will
come back to you."
Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering
and laid it on his son Isaac, and he himself
carried the fire and the knife. So the two of
them walked on together.
Isaac said to his father Abraham, "Father!"
And he said, "Here I am, my son." He said,
"The fire and the wood are here, but where is
the lamb for a burnt offering?"
Abraham said, "God himself will provide the
lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So the
two of them walked on together.
When they came to the place that God had
shown him, Abraham built an altar there
and laid the wood in order. He bound his son
Isaac, and laid him on the altar, on top of the
wood.
Then Abraham reached out his hand and
took the knife to killa his son.
But the angel of the LORD called to him
from heaven, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!"

Esau Sells His Birthright
Heb 12.16
Once when Jacob was cooking a stew, Esau
came in from the field, and he was famished.
Esau said to Jacob, "Let me eat some of that
red stuff, for I am famished!" (Therefore he
was called Edom.e)
Jacob said, "First sell me your birthright."
Esau said, "I am about to die; of what use is a
birthright to me?"
Jacob said, "Swear to me first."f So he swore
to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.
Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew,
and he ate and drank, and rose and went his
way. Thus Esau despised his birthright.
Isaac and Abimelech
Now there was a famine in the land, besides

The LORD appeared to Isaaca and said, "Do
not go down to Egypt; settle in the land that
I shall show you.
Reside in this land as an alien, and I will be
with you, and will bless you; for to you and to
your descendants I will give all these lands,
and I will fulfill the oath that I swore to your
father Abraham.
I will make your offspring as numerous as
the stars of heaven, and will give to your
offspring all these lands; and all the nations
of the earth shall gain blessing for themselves
through your offspring,
because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept
my charge, my commandments, my statutes,
and my laws."
So Isaac settled in Gerar.
When the men of the place asked him about
his wife, he said, "She is my sister"; for he was
afraid to say, "My wife," thinking, "or else
the men of the place might kill me for the
sake of Rebekah, because she is attractive in
appearance."
When Isaac had been there a long time, King
Abimelech of the Philistines looked out
of a window and saw him fondling his wife
Rebekah.
So Abimelech called for Isaac, and said, "So
she is your wife! Why then did you say, 'She
is my sister'?" Isaac said to him, "Because I
thought I might die because of her."

was black, and put them in charge of his
sons;
and he set a distance of three days' journey
between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was
pasturing the rest of Laban's flock.
Then Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and
almond and plane, and peeled white streaks
in them, exposing the white of the rods.
He set the rods that he had peeled in front of
the flocks in the troughs, that is, the watering
places, where the flocks came to drink. And
since they bred when they came to drink,
the flocks bred in front of the rods, and so
the flocks produced young that were striped,
speckled, and spotted.
Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces
of the flocks toward the striped and the
completely black animals in the flock of
Laban; and he put his own droves apart, and
did not put them with Laban's flock.
Whenever the stronger of the flock were
breeding, Jacob laid the rods in the troughs
before the eyes of the flock, that they might
breed among the rods,
but for the feebler of the flock he did not lay
them there; so the feebler were Laban's, and
the stronger Jacob's.
Thus the man grew exceedingly rich, and had
large flocks, and male and female slaves, and
camels and donkeys.
Jacob Flees with Family and Flocks
Now Jacob heard that the sons of Laban
were saying, "Jacob has taken all that was our
father's; he has gained all this wealth from
what belonged to our father."
And Jacob saw that Laban did not regard him
as favorably as he did before.

Then Jacob took fresh rods of poplar and 30:37
almond and plane trees, and peeled white
stripes in them, exposing the white which
was in the rods.
He set the rods which he had peeled in front of 30:38
the flocks in the gutters, even in the watering
troughs, where the flocks came to drink; and
they mated when they came to drink.
So the flocks mated by the rods, and the 30:39
flocks brought forth striped, speckled, and
spotted.
Jacob separated the lambs, and made the 30:40
flocks face toward the striped and all the
black in the flock of Laban; and he put his
own herds apart, and did not put them with
Laban's flock.
Moreover, whenever the stronger of the flock 30:41
were mating, Jacob would place the rods in
the sight of the flock in the gutters, so that
they might mate by the rods;
but when the flock was feeble, he did not put 30:42
them in; so the feebler were Laban's and the
stronger Jacob's.
So Uthe man became exceedingly prosperous, 30:43

Now Rachel had taken the household gods
and put them in the camel's saddle, and sat
on them. Laban felt all about in the tent, but
did not find them.
And she said to her father, "Let not my lord
be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the
way of women is upon me." So he searched,
but did not find the household gods.
Then Jacob became angry, and upbraided
Laban. Jacob said to Laban, "What is my
offense? What is my sin, that you have hotly
pursued me?
Although you have felt about through all
my goods, what have you found of all your
household goods? Set it here before my
kinsfolk and your kinsfolk, so that they may
decide between us two.
These twenty years I have been with you;
your ewes and your female goats have not
miscarried, and I have not eaten the rams of
your flocks.
That which was torn by wild beasts I did not
bring to you; I bore the loss of it myself; of
my hand you required it, whether stolen by
day or stolen by night.
It was like this with me: by day the heat
consumed me, and the cold by night, and my
sleep fled from my eyes.
These twenty years I have been in your house;
I served you fourteen years for your two
daughters, and six years for your flock, and
you have changed my wages ten times.
If the God of my father, the God of Abraham
and the Feard of Isaac, had not been on my
side, surely now you would have sent me
away empty-handed. God saw my affliction
and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you
last night."

Laban and Jacob Make a Covenant
Then Laban answered and said to Jacob, "The
daughters are my daughters, the children are
my children, the flocks are my flocks, and all
that you see is mine. But what can I do today
about these daughters of mine, or about their
children whom they have borne?
Come now, let us make a covenant, you and I;
and let it be a witness between you and me."
So Jacob took a stone, and set it up as a
pillar.
And Jacob said to his kinsfolk, "Gather
stones," and they took stones, and made a
heap; and they ate there by the heap.
Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha:e but Jacob
called it Galeed.f
Laban said, "This heap is a witness between
you and me today." Therefore he called it
Galeed,
and the pillarg Mizpah,h for he said, "The
LORD watch between you and me, when we
are absent one from the other.
If you ill-treat my daughters, or if you take
wives in addition to my daughters, though
no one else is with us, remember that God is
witness between you and me."
Then Laban said to Jacob, "See this heap and
see the pillar, which I have set between you
and me.
This heap is a witness, and the pillar is a
witness, that I will not pass beyond this heap

Their words pleased Hamor and Hamor's

And the young man did not delay to do the
thing, because he was delighted with Jacob's
daughter. Now he was the most honored of
all his family.
So Hamor and his son Shechem came to the
gate of their city and spoke to the men of
their city, saying,
"These people are friendly with us; let them
live in the land and trade in it, for the land
is large enough for them; let us take their
daughters in marriage, and let us give them
our daughters.
Only on this condition will they agree to live
among us, to become one people: that every
male among us be circumcised as they are
circumcised.
Will not their livestock, their property, and
all their animals be ours? Only let us agree
with them, and they will live among us."
And all who went out of the city gate heeded
Hamor and his son Shechem; and every male
was circumcised, all who went out of the gate
of his city.

On the third day, when they were still in pain,
two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi,

came against the city unawares, and killed all
the males.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with
the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's

Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his
daughters, and all the members of his
household, his cattle, all his livestock, and
all the property he had acquired in the land
of Canaan; and he moved to a land some
distance from his brother Jacob.
For their possessions were too great for them
to live together; the land where they were
staying could not support them because of
their livestock.
So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir;
Esau is Edom.
These are the descendants of Esau, ancestor
of the Edomites, in the hill country of Seir.
These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz
son of Adah the wife of Esau; Reuel, the son
of Esau's wife Basemath.
The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar,
Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.
(Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's
son; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz.) These were
the sons of Adah, Esau's wife.
These were the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah,
Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons
of Esau's wife, Basemath.
These were the sons of Esau's wife Oholi-

Joseph Dreams of Greatness
Jacob settled in the land where his father had
lived as an alien, the land of Canaan.
This is the story of the family of Jacob. Joseph,
being seventeen years old, was shepherding
the flock with his brothers; he was a helper
to the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's
wives; and Joseph brought a bad report of
them to their father.
Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other
of his children, because he was the son of his
old age; and he had made him a long robe
with sleeves.a
But when his brothers saw that their father
loved him more than all his brothers, they
hated him, and could not speak peaceably to
him.
Once Joseph had a dream, and when he told
it to his brothers, they hated him even more.
He said to them, "Listen to this dream that
I dreamed.
There we were, binding sheaves in the field.
Suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright;
then your sheaves gathered around it, and
bowed down to my sheaf."
His brothers said to him, "Are you indeed
to reign over us? Are you indeed to have
dominion over us?" So they hated him even
more because of his dreams and his words.

He had another dream, and told it to his
brothers, saying, "Look, I have had another
dream: the sun, the moon, and eleven stars
were bowing down to me."
But when he told it to his father and to his
brothers, his father rebuked him, and said
to him, "What kind of dream is this that you
have had? Shall we indeed come, I and your
mother and your brothers, and bow to the
ground before you?"
So his brothers were jealous of him, but his
father kept the matter in mind.
Joseph Is Sold by His Brothers
Now his brothers went to pasture their
father's flock near Shechem.
And Israel said to Joseph, "Are not your
brothers pasturing the flock at Shechem?
Come, I will send you to them." He answered,
"Here I am."
So he said to him, "Go now, see if it is well
with your brothers and with the flock; and
bring word back to me." So he sent him from
the valley of Hebron. He came to Shechem,
and a man found him wandering in the fields;
the man asked him, "What are you seeking?"
"I am seeking my brothers," he said; "tell me,
please, where they are pasturing the flock."
The man said, "They have gone away, for I
heard them say, 'Let us go to Dothan.'" So
Joseph went after his brothers, and found
them at Dothan.

Now he had still another dream, and related 37:9

They saw him from a distance, and before
he came near to them, they conspired to kill
him.
They said to one another, "Here comes this
dreamer.
Come now, let us kill him and throw him
into one of the pits; then we shall say that a
wild animal has devoured him, and we shall
see what will become of his dreams."
But when Reuben heard it, he delivered him
out of their hands, saying, "Let us not take
his life."
Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood; throw
him into this pit here in the wilderness, but
lay no hand on him" -- that he might rescue
him out of their hand and restore him to his
father.
So when Joseph came to his brothers, they
stripped him of his robe, the long robe with
sleevesb that he wore;
and they took him and threw him into a pit.
The pit was empty; there was no water in it.
Then they sat down to eat; and looking up
they saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming
from Gilead, with their camels carrying
gum, balm, and resin, on their way to carry it
down to Egypt.
Then Judah said to his brothers, "What
profit is it if we kill our brother and conceal
his blood?
Come, let us sell him to the Ishmaelites,
and not lay our hands on him, for he is our
brother, our own flesh." And his brothers

So it came about, when Joseph reached his 37:23

When some Midianite traders passed by, they

sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces
of silver. And they took Joseph to Egypt.
When Reuben returned to the pit and saw
that Joseph was not in the pit, he tore his

He returned to his brothers, and said, "The
boy is gone; and I, where can I turn?"
Then they took Joseph's robe, slaughtered a

They had the long robe with sleevesc taken
to their father, and they said, "This we have

Joseph is without doubt torn to pieces."
Then Jacob tore his garments, and put

All his sons and all his daughters sought to

feared that he too would die, like his brothers.
So Tamar went to live in her father's house.
In course of time the wife of Judah, Shua's
daughter, died; when Judah's time of mour-
ning was over,b he went up to Timnah to his
sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the
Adullamite.
When Tamar was told, "Your father-in-law is
going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,"
she put off her widow's garments, put on a
veil, wrapped herself up, and sat down at the
entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to
Timnah. She saw that Shelah was grown
up, yet she had not been given to him in
marriage.
When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a
prostitute, for she had covered her face.
He went over to her at the road side, and said,
"Come, let me come in to you," for he did not
know that she was his daughter-in-law. She
said, "What will you give me, that you may
come in to me?"
He answered, "I will send you a kid from the
flock." And she said, "Only if you give me a
pledge, until you send it."
He said, "What pledge shall I give you?" She
replied, "Your signet and your cord, and the
staff that is in your hand." So he gave them
to her, and went in to her, and she conceived
by him.
Then she got up and went away, and taking
off her veil she put on the garments of her
widowhood.

He asked the townspeople, "Where is the

So he returned to Judah, and said, "I have not

'No prostitute has been here.'"
Judah replied, "Let her keep the things as her
own, otherwise we will be laughed at; you see,
I sent this kid, and you could not find her."
About three months later Judah was told,
"Your daughter-in-law Tamar has played the
whore; moreover she is pregnant as a result

As she was being brought out, she sent word

Then Judah acknowledged them and said,
"She is more in the right than I, since I did
not give her to my son Shelah." And he did
not lie with her again.

While she was in labor, one put out a hand;

Then Judah said, "Let her keep them, 38:23
otherwise we will become a laughingstock.
After all, I sent this young goat, but you did
not find her."
Now it was about three months later that 38:24
Judah was informed, "Your daughter-in-law

"Look, with me here, my master has no

has put everything that he has in my hand.
He is not greater in this house than I am, nor

And although she spoke to Joseph day after
day, he would not consent to lie beside her or
to be with her.
One day, however, when he went into the

she caught hold of his garment, saying, "Lie

and when he heard me raise my voice and cry
out, he left his garment beside me, and fled

Then she kept his garment by her until his
master came home,

When his master heard the words that

And Joseph's master took him and put him
into the prison, the place where the king's
prisoners were confined; he remained there
in prison.
But the LORD was with Joseph and showed
him steadfast love; he gave him favor in the

The chief jailer committed to Joseph's care

confined in the prison -- each his own dream,
and each dream with its own meaning.
When Joseph came to them in the morning,
he saw that they were troubled.
So he asked Pharaoh's officers, who were
with him in custody in his master's house,
"Why are your faces downcast today?"
They said to him, "We have had dreams,
and there is no one to interpret them." And
Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations
belong to God? Please tell them to me."
So the chief cupbearer told his dream to
Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream there
was a vine before me,
and on the vine there were three branches.
As soon as it budded, its blossoms came out
and the clusters ripened into grapes.
Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the
grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup,
and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."
Then Joseph said to him, "This is its inter-
pretation: the three branches are three days;
within three days Pharaoh will lift up your

When the chief baker saw that the
interpretation was favorable, he said to
Joseph, "I also had a dream: there were three
cake baskets on my head,
and in the uppermost basket there were all
sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds
were eating it out of the basket on my head."
And Joseph answered, "This is its
interpretation: the three baskets are three
days;
within three days Pharaoh will lift up your
head -- from you! -- and hang you on a pole;
and the birds will eat the flesh from you."
On the third day, which was Pharaoh's

and lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer

He restored the chief cupbearer to his

Joseph Interprets Pharaoh’s Dream

three baskets of white bread on my head;
and in the top basket there were some of 40:17
all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, and the
birds were eating them out of the basket on
my head."
Then Joseph answered and said, "This is its 40:18
interpretation: the three baskets are three

within three more days Pharaoh will lift up 40:19
your head from you and will hang you on
a tree, and the birds will eat your flesh off

Thus it came about on the third day, which 40:20

ce of the land of Egypt during the seven
plenteous years.
Let them gather all the food of these good
years that are coming, and lay up grain under
the authority of Pharaoh for food in the
cities, and let them keep it.
That food shall be a reserve for the land
against the seven years of famine that are to
befall the land of Egypt, so that the land may
not perish through the famine."
Joseph’s Rise to Power
The proposal pleased Pharaoh and all his
servants.
Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find
anyone else like this -- one in whom is the
spirit of God?"
So Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God
has shown you all this, there is no one so
discerning and wise as you.
You shall be over my house, and all my people
shall order themselves as you command; only
with regard to the throne will I be greater
than you."
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "See, I have set
you over all the land of Egypt."
Removing his signet ring from his hand,
Pharaoh put it on Joseph's hand; he arrayed
him in garments of fine linen, and put a gold
chain around his neck.
He had him ride in the chariot of his second-
in-command; and they cried out in front of
him, "Bow the knee!"b Thus he set him over
all the land of Egypt.
Moreover Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I am
Pharaoh, and without your consent no one
shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of

N A S B
of the produce of the land of Egypt in the
seven years of abundance.
"Then let them AAgather all the food of these 41:35

grain for food in the cities under Pharaoh's
authority, and let them guard it.
AA.Gen 41:48
"Let the food become as a reserve for the 41:36
land for the seven years of famine which will
occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land
will not perish during the famine."
Now the proposal seemed good to Pharaoh 41:37
and to all his servants.
Joseph Is Made a Ruler of Egypt
Then Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we 41:38
find a man like this, ABin whom is a divine
spirit?"

Joseph gained authority over the land of

Then Pharaoh named Joseph aZaphenath- 41:45

He gathered up all the food of the seven years

in every city the food from the fields around
it.
So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance

Before the years of famine came, Joseph

During the seven years of plenty the land 41:47

So he gathered all the food of these seven 41:48

just as Joseph had said. There was famine in
every country, but throughout the land of
Egypt there was bread.
When all the land of Egypt was famished, the
people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Pharaoh
said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph; what
he says to you, do."
And since the famine had spread over all the

I have heard," he said, "that there is grain in
Egypt; go down and buy grain for us there,
that we may live and not die."
So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy
grain in Egypt.
But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother
Benjamin with his brothers, for he feared
that harm might come to him.
Thus the sons of Israel were among the other
people who came to buy grain, for the famine
had reached the land of Canaan.
Now Joseph was governor over the land;
it was he who sold to all the people of the

I myself will be surety for him; you can hold
me accountable for him. If I do not bring

let me bear the blame forever.
If we had not delayed, we would now have

Then their father Israel said to them, "If it
must be so, then do this: take some of the
choice fruits of the land in your bags, and
carry them down as a present to the man --
a little balm and a little honey, gum, resin,

Jacob Brings His Whole Family to Egypt
(Ex 6.14—25)
When Israel set out on his journey with
all that he had and came to Beer-sheba, he
offered sacrifices to the God of his father
Isaac.
God spoke to Israel in visions of the night,
and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here
I am."
Then he said, "I am God,a the God of your
father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt,
for I will make of you a great nation there.
I myself will go down with you to Egypt, and
I will also bring you up again; and Joseph's
own hand shall close your eyes."
Then Jacob set out from Beer-sheba; and the
sons of Israel carried their father Jacob, their
little ones, and their wives, in the wagons
that Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
They also took their livestock and the goods
that they had acquired in the land of Canaan,
and they came into Egypt, Jacob and all his
offspring with him,
his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his
daughters, and his sons' daughters; all his
offspring he brought with him into Egypt.
Now these are the names of the Israelites,
Jacob and his offspring, who came to Egypt.
Reuben, Jacob's firstborn,
and the children of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu,
Hezron, and Carmi.

And Joseph answered, "Give me your live-

for your livestock, if your money is gone."
So they brought their livestock to Joseph;
and Joseph gave them food in exchange for
the horses, the flocks, the herds, and the
donkeys. That year he supplied them with
food in exchange for all their livestock.
When that year was ended, they came to him

spent; and the herds of cattle are my lord's.
There is nothing left in the sight of my lord

Pharaoh, and lived on the allowance that
Pharaoh gave them; therefore they did not
sell their land.

in the region of Goshen; and they gained
possessions in it, and were fruitful and
multiplied exceedingly.
Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen
years; so the days of Jacob, the years of his
life, were one hundred forty-seven years.
When the time of Israel's death drew near,
he called his son Joseph and said to him, "If
I have found favor with you, put your hand
under my thigh and promise to deal loyally
and truly with me. Do not bury me in Egypt.
When I lie down with my ancestors, carry
me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial
place." He answered, "I will do as you have
said."
And he said, "Swear to me"; and he swore to
him. Then Israel bowed himself on the head

When Jacob ended his charge to his sons, he

Joseph commanded the physicians in

physicians embalmed Israel;
they spent forty days in doing this, for that

Egyptians wept for him seventy days.
When the days of weeping for him were past,
Joseph addressed the household of Pharaoh,
"If now I have found favor with you, please
speak to Pharaoh as follows:
My father made me swear an oath; he said,
'I am about to die. In the tomb that I hewed

Pharaoh answered, "Go up, and bury your

him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the
elders of his household, and all the elders of
