  (9) Joseph and Egypt Joseph was Jacob's eleventh son. From a young age, he received many revelations from God through dreams, which made him the object of envy and jealousy from his brothers. Genesis 37:1-7 "Jacob lived in the land of Canaan, the land where his father had sojourned. These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph was seventeen years old, keeping the flock with his brothers. He was with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives. And he told his father about their wrongdoing. Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his other sons, because he was the son of his old age; and he made a coat of many colors for him. When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all of them, they hated him and could not speak peacefully to him. Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him even more. And Joseph said to them, "Please listen to this dream I had: We were binding sheaves in the field, and, look! My sheaf also stood u...

  (8) Jacob and Bethel Genesis 28:10-19 『 Then Jacob set out from Beersheba and went toward Haran. When he came to a certain place, the sun had set, and he stayed there. He took one of the stones of the place and put it under his head and lay down in it to sleep. Then he dreamed that a ladder was set up on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven. The angels of God were ascending and descending on it. The Lord stood above it and said, "I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac. The land on which you lie will I give to you and to your descendants. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south. And all the families of the earth will be blessed in you and in your descendants. I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." Then Jacob awoke from his s...

  (7) Isaac and Mount Moriah Genesis 22:1-2 “ After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, ‘ Abraham! ’ And he said, ‘ Here I am. ’ Then the LORD said, ‘ Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah. Offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I will tell you. ’” God wanted to test Abraham. What was this test? It had to do with Beersheba. The well symbolized the promise, and Christ, the embodiment of that promise, symbolized it. Exodus 15:25 Then Moses cried out to the Lord, and the Lord showed him a tree, which he threw into the waters, and the waters became sweet. There the Lord made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he tested them. Exodus 16:4 tells us why this test is being conducted: "Then the Lord said to Moses, 'See, I am about to rain bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out and gather a certain amount each day, so that I may test them to see whether they will wa...

  (6) Lot and Sodom and Gomorrah Genesis 19:1-3 『 Now the two angels (Malach) came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When he saw them, he rose to meet them and bowed down with his face to the ground. He said, “ My lords, please turn in to your servant ’ s house and spend the night, then get up early and go on your way. ” But they said, “ No, but we will spend the night in the street. ” So Lot urged them. Then they turned and came into the house. He prepared a table for them and baked unleavened bread, and they ate. 』 The phrase "evening" signifies a state of spiritual darkness, that judgment has come. Malach means God's messenger, an angel. However, Adonai (the basic form is Adon) is translated as "Lord." "Lord" refers to Christ. The word "Adonai" is plural, but grammatically it is treated as singular. "Lord" is one, not plural. For example, "Elohim" (God) is also plural, but gramma...
