The king became anger with two of his servants: Wine pourer and baker.
He put them in jail in the care of Joseph. The two servants had dreams and
Joseph interpreted the dreams. They foreshadowed the servants futures. Josephs predictions came true.
Key events: Joseph interpreted the king’s servants dreams in jail.
Place: a jail in Egypt Theme: God spoke through Joseph to
tell the servants what would happen. Characters: Joseph, Wine pourer, King,
Baker and God God is involved by acting through
Joseph.
Listen to what other have tell you because it could help you in the end.
No matter what trust in God and do what he tells you.
We should act like Joseph. Because he helped the servants even
though he didn’t have to.“Joseph said to him in reply ‘This is what it means the three baskets are three days; within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and have you impaled on a stake and the birds will be pecking the flesh off your body.” Genesis 40: 18-19
The criminals crucified along with Jesus are represented by the servants of the King.
The wine pourer represents the man who asked for forgiveness.
The baker represents the one who does not follow God.
By trusting God and having faith will help you to grow closer to God.
God will help you be guided to heaven, and lead you away from temptations.
Others can help you along the way.
Pharaoh had two dreams: Both had 7 years of famine and 7 years of abundance.
Joseph opened all the cities during the famine and rationed the food for the Egyptians
Pharaoh took Joseph out of prison to interpret his dreams. Everything he said came true.
Key characters: Pharaoh, Joseph, and God
Events: Pharaoh’s dreams, Joseph traveling to Egypt, Joseph interpreting the dreams.
Theme: 7 years of famine and abundance
Place: Egypt
We can listen to what our spiritual leaders tell us.
We should act like Joseph because he is messenger of God.
Pharaoh looked through magicians to interpret the dream instead of God.
“When the 7 years of abundance enjoyed by the land of Egypt the 7 years of famine set in just as Joseph had predicted.” Genesis 41:53-54
The 7 years of famine is like before creation
The 7 years of abundance is like the 7 days God made the world.
Joseph rationed the wheat as Jesus distributed the fish and bread.
Always look to God for help. Always be positive in a bad situation
because God will make it good. With God all things are possible.
