Sunday School Lesson
By
Rev. Hugh T. Stevenson.
aged father wept tears Of Joy when he
saw Joseph.
Presentation to Pharaoh,


saw Joseph.
Presentation to Pharaoh.
No doubt shortly after the arrival of
Jacob and his family in Goshen Joseph
arranged for the presentation of five of
hts brothers to Pharaoh. Five was a
popular number with the Egyptians
This may account for Joseph presenting
that, number to Pharaoh. Probably the
others were needed to supervise settling
in Goshen and the establishment of
their new homes. Joseph instructed his
brothers how they should appear and
approach Pharaoh, suggesting the an
swers to the questions that he knew
Pharaoh would ask them. Joseph
diplomatic presentation of his brethren
resulted in Pharaoh confirming his in
vitation for them to settle in Goshen,
and as an appreciation of the fine work
that Joseph had performed Pharaoh
suggested that some of the brothers be
placed in charge of his cattle, which he
greatly priced.
In due time Joseph arranged for the
presentation of his father, who in all
probability was attired in a peasants s
garb, with robe of camel's hair about
his waist, into the court. He faced
Pharaoh with the dignity of a man who
had been honored by his communion with
Jehovah. His aged form tottered, for
he had passed three score years beyond
the century mark His hoary head
was a crown of glory that compared
favorably with the gold crown worn by
Pharaoh. His great soul was reflected
through his face that had been tanned
by the sun and the blasts of the wind
The spirituality of Jacob could easily
be seen, as he drew near Pharoah,
whom he approached without making
any sign of reverence, but invoked a
blessing
Evidently Pharoah was not displeased
by Jacobs attitude and blessing,
Pharaoh showed his interest in Jacob
by inquiring about his age, which is a
great honor among the people of the
East. This query caused Jacob to think
back upon his long life, which appeared
to him to be pilgrimage, marked by
wandering from place to place. He
considered that his days had been few,
and as he recalled them. regret over
the evil experiences filled his soul.
Seventeen years later, when JACOB
placed his hands upon the children of
Joseph, he recalled the blessings of
God. who had crowned ris life with
divine blessings and protected Jacob
from evil. In the closing days Of Jacob,
while he dwelt in Goshen, Joseph hon.
ored his father as we ought to honor
our fathers. The last years Of Jacob S
career were filled with JOY because of
the kindness. care ana love of Joseph.
who ministered to his father out Of
the fullness of his heart, even arrang-
ing for the carrying Of his fathers
body back to Palestine, where he was
buried with those whom he loved Let
us emulate Joseph in caring for our
fathers, especially our aged fathers.
