7. - And seventh it was that after his logical internal fight, it knew to pardon to his brothers when they regreted, even before the fulfillment of the dream that the same had, when it saw the sun and the moon and eleven stars postroads before him, looking for them, before Pharaoh the blessing for theirs.

COMMENTED BIBLICAL TEXTS
THE MANIFESTATION OF THE DON OF DREAMS IN JOSE
GENESIS: CHAPTER 37
It inhabited Earth Jacob where his father had dwelled, in the Earth of Canaán. 2Esta is the history of the family of Jacob: Jose, being of age of seventeen years, fed the ewes with his brothers; and the young person was with the children of Bilha and the children of Zilpa, women of his father; and the bad fame informed Jose to its father into them. 3Y loved Israel Jose more than to all children, it had had because it in its oldness; and it did a túnica to him of diverse colors. 4Y seeing their brothers that to their loved it father more than all brothers, detested to him, and they could not speak to him pacifically. 5Y dreamed Jose a dream, it told and it to its brothers; and they got to more still detest to him. 6Y he said to them: You hear this dream now that I have dreamed: 7He here that we tied handfuls in the middle of the field, and there am my handful one rose and he was right here, and that your handfuls were around and they inclined to mine. 8Le responded their brothers: Will reign you envelope we, or will control envelope we? And they even more detested because of its dreams and their words to him. 9Soñó even another dream, told and it to its brothers, saying: I have I have dreamed another dream, and there am here the sun here and the moon and eleven stars inclined.
Jose is the type of disciple of the MesÃas Jesus Christ who by his fidelity to the Gentleman is detested by his brothers. A characteristic that I have observed during years, is that indeed to those isolated brothers more, the most detested they are indeed those that God has kept to speak and to give them dreams, visions, interpretation, prophecy and wisdom to them. Also almost all the prophets were and are detested by the town, but they are indeed hear the voice of God.
Jose is a waiting room than he represents our Mr. Jesus Christ, a brother of the twelve tribes, or children of Jacob who is Israel, before which would have themselves to postrar his father Jose the carpenter, his mother Maria and the eleven apostles, because all of them by Him would have to be safe. The túnica of colors symbolizes the túnica of Christ of a single piece, and the colors, seven, those of the seven spirits of God, the seven colors of the rainbow in which the white light is divided, the light of the world, the one of Christ.
it told 10Y it to his father and his brothers; and his father reprimanded to him, and he said to him: What dream is this that you dreamed? Perhaps we will come I and your mother and your brothers to postrar itself in earth before you? 11Y their brothers had envy to him, but his father meditated in this.
The alive picture of situations as this nowadays experiences in the Church when a brother, is or nonold spiritually, by his overturned God heart, it receives blessing and it hears the voice of God, by envy is detested by his own brothers in the faith, mainly by old and the shepherds who reprimand to him, although many will meditate in it, as also Jacob did.
The first reaction of Jacob was of anger by the dream of Jose, but when reacting account of which if God spoke to Jose, it would have to consider the message, it liked or no. occurred. The brothers of Jose in their blindness by envy do not consider that his brother, to that they detest, can be that one by that God speaks to them.
12Después went their brothers to feed the ewes on their father in Siquem. 13Y said Israel to Jose: Your brothers feed the ewes in Siquem: they see, I will send and you to them. And it responded: Heme here. 14E Israel said to him: It sees now, it watches how they are your brothers and how they are the ewes, and tráeme the answer. It sent and it of the valley of Hebrón, and arrived at Siquem. 15Y found a man, walking nomadic he by the field, and that one man asked to him, saying: What you look for? 16José responded: I look for my brothers; I request to you that you show to me where they are feeding. 17Aquel man responded: They have already gone away of here; and I heard say to them: We go to Dotán. Then Jose was behind his brothers, he found and them in Dotán. 18Cuando saw they it by far, before she arrived near them, conspired against him to kill to him.
The conspiracy to kill Jose is the consequence of the hatred, the attitude to reject to a brother or to a friend, the scorn. When a brother detests to another one, and I am talking about the Church, he is just as he killed if it; it is at least what the Bible teaches in 1Juan 3:15, and this Text explains that the consequence del that detests its brother is that is considered homicida, and finishes east Versicle assuring that we know that no homicida has permanent eternal life in him.
19Y said the one to the other: I have comes the dreamer here. 20Ahora then, you come, and we kill to him and we throw to him in a cistern, and will say: To some bad it devoured it beast; and we will see what will be of its dreams. 21Cuando Rubén it heard this it freed, it of its hands, and it said: We do not kill it. 22Y said Rubén to them: You do not spill blood; echadlo in this cistern that is in the desert, and you do not put hand in him; to that free it its hands, to make it return to its father. 23Sucedió, then, that when Jose arrived at his brothers, they cleared to Jose their túnica, the túnica of colors that had envelope yes; 24y took him and they threw to him in the cistern; but the cistern was empty, was in her no water. 25Y sat down to eat bread; and raising the eyes they watched, and there am a company of ismaelitas here that came from Galaad, and their camels brought aromas, balsam and mirra, and were going to take it to Egypt. 26Entonces Judá said to its brothers: What benefit has in which we kill our brother and we conceal its death? 27Venid, and we sell to him to the ismaelitas, and it is not our hand exceeds; because he is our brother, our own meat. And their brothers agreed with him. 28Y when they passed the madianitas merchants, removed they to Jose from the cistern, and they brought to him above, and they sold to him to the ismaelitas by twenty pieces of silver. And they took to Jose to Egypt. 29Después Rubén returned to the cistern, and it did not find Jose inside, and it tore his dresses. 30Y returned to its brothers, and said: The young person does not seem; and I, where will go I?
The brothers of Jose made fun of of him, but than they were not realizing is that in fact they sinned against God because the gift is His. Rubén and Judá intercede by the life of Jose. More ahead we will see the consequence for them.
The ismaelitas and the madianitas are children of Abraham. A priori the worse enemy to the one than could sell to him by hatred that was still had and has today, as we see in the Middle East.
31Entonces they took túnica it from Jose, and degollaron a cabrito of the goats, and dyed the túnica with the blood; 32y sent the túnica of colors and they brought his father, and they said: This we have found; it recognizes now if it is the túnica of your son, or no. 33Y recognized he it, and said: The túnica of my son is; to some bad it devoured it beast; Jose has been broken. 34Entonces Jacob tore its dresses, and put hair shirt on its backs, and kept mourning by its son many days. 35Y to all children and all daughters rose to console it; but it did not want to receive consolation, and said: I will descend enlutado son until the Seol. And his father cried. 36Y sold it to the madianitas in Egypt to Potifar, official of Pharaoh, captain of the guard.
Lying and using the blood of a sacrifice animal to dye the túnica of its brother, it is an attitude that it symbolizes to that it rejects the salvation of Christ, who instead of to accept Its blood, follows religious actually that is reflected here in the one of the cabrito expiar its sins. Without them to realize, having cleared the túnica to its brother, symbolically is the attempt to clear the unction, the protection of its father, but the unction of God is not visible materially but in the facts that occur, which would follow Jose, just like it does in Christ and us.
If we remembered history, in this way Sanhedrin came when showing the chained MesÃas and without its túnica, and later crucified, continuing with the sacrifice animal that in one go does not change the attitude of the sinful one for always since it makes the life of the Son of God in which they receive to him by the faith like rescuer of his souls.

JOSE IN EGYPT
GENESIS: CHAPTER 39
Taken, then, Jose to Egypt, official Potifar of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, Egyptian man bought, it of the ismaelitas had taken that it there. 2Mas Yahweh was with Jose, and was prosperous man; and he was in the house of its master the Egyptian. 3Y saw its master who Yahweh was with him, and who everything what he did, Yahweh made prosper in its hand. 4Asà found Jose grace in its eyes, and it served to him; and he did butler to him of his house and gave in his power everything what had. 5Y occurred that since when it gave the order him of its house and of everything what had, Yahweh blessed the house of the Egyptian because of Jose, and the blessing of Yahweh was mainly what had, thus in house like in the field. 6Y left everything what had in hand of Jose, and with him some did not worry about thing but about the bread that ate. And he was Jose of beautiful semblante and beautiful presence. 7Aconteció after this, that the woman of her master put her eyes in Jose, and said: Duer to me with me. 8Y he did not want, and said to the woman of its master: There am my gentleman does not worry here with me than he has in house, and he has put in my hand everything what has. 9No is another major that I in this house, and no thing has reserved to me but, inasmuch as you are his wife; how, then, would do I this great one badly, and would sin against God? 10Hablando she to Jose every day, and listening to it he does not stop to lie down next to her, to be with her, 11aconteció that he entered a day house to make his office, and was nobody of those of house there. 12Y grasped it to she by its clothes, saying: Duer to me with me. Then it left his clothes in the hands of her, and fled and left. 13Cuando it saw who had left her clothes him in her hands, and had fled it go, 14llamó to those of house, and she spoke saying to them: You watch, has brought us a Hebrew so that it made ridicule of us. Wine he to sleep with me, and I gave great voices; 15y seeing that I raised the voice and shouted, she left next to me his clothes, and fled and she left. 16Y she put next to himself the clothes of Jose, until his gentleman came to his house. 17Entonces spoke she to him the same words, saying: The Hebrew servant who you brought to us, came to dishonor to me. 18Y when I raised my voice and shouted, he left its clothes next to me and fled outside. 19Y it happened that when heard the master of Jose the words that his wife spoke to him, saying: Thus your servant has treated me, ignited his rage. 20Y took its master to Jose, it put and it in the jail, where they were the prisoners of the king, and was there in the jail. 21Pero Yahweh was with Jose and it extended his mercy to him, and it gave grace him in the eyes of the head of the jail. 22Y the head of the jail gave in hand of Jose the care of all the prisoners that was in that one prison; everything what was made there, did he it. 23No needed to take care of the head of the jail thing some of which they were to the care of Jose, because Yahweh was with Jose, and what he did, prospered it to Yahweh.
There am the blessing here of which they love God and they serve to him, that Yahweh is with them it blesses and them in everything what they do. Despite there am a warning in the history of Jose in the house of Potifar here. There are moments of test, like the temptation of the wife of Potifar. It is where test to the disciple in its fidelity here, but the part of the test is not this but in the consequence, because enemy him, the devil, that always is lying and scheming to fight against the children of God, it prepares a strategy, which must like aim throw to the disciple at issue in affliction and disrepute situation. The insistence of the wife is the same that of the enemy, and sometimes our own mind and the world they have in our lives.
On the other hand we can see a little more deeply what means the temptation of the wife of Potifar. The wife symbolizes her soul. In its soul, the mind of Potifar is attracted by the honesty of Jose, having appreciated the great spiritual value of this man, today any Christian to whom wanting it convinces and to turn to his religion or philosophy, touches by the friendship or good personal relation, to which there is to be kind to know how to say no, and if it is possible to give the return to the situation so that we are those that we offer to our fellow, not only which they lie down “spiritually� with us, with our form to think, but they marry spiritually with Jesus Christ and they are one with Him.
God allows these tests, but they are for fortification, in which by the experience of which Yahweh is with us at any moment, we are fortified in our faith.

JOSE INTERPRETS DREAMS
GENESIS: CHAPTER 40
It occurred after these things, that cobut of the king of Egypt and the baker broke the law against their gentleman the king of Egypt. 2Y got angry Pharaoh against its two officials, against the head of the coperos and against the head of the bakers, it took 3y them prisoner in the house of the captain of the guard, in the jail where Jose was imprisoned. 4Y the captain of the guard ordered of them to Jose, and it served to them; and they were days in the prison. 5Y both, cobut and the baker of the king of Egypt, who was arrested in the prison, were a sleepy, each their own dream in a same night, each with their own meaning. 6Vino to them Jose in the morning, watched and them, and I have were sad here. 7Y he asked those officials of Pharaoh, who were with him in the prison of the house of their gentleman, saying: Why seems today bad your semblantes? 8Ellos said to him: We have been a sleepy, and there is not one interprets that it. Then Jose said to them: They are not of God the interpretations? Contádmelo now. 9Entonces the head of the coperos counted its dream to Jose, and it said to him: I dreamed that I saw a grapevine in front of me, 10y in the grapevine three vine shoots; and it because she appeared, and threw her flower, coming to mature her clusters of grapes. 11Y that the glass of Pharaoh was in my hand, and took I them grapes it expressed and them in the glass of Pharaoh, and gave it glass I in hand of Pharaoh. 12Y said Jose to him: This is its interpretation: the three vine shoots are three days. 13The end of three days will raise to Pharaoh your head, it will restitute and you to your position, and you will give the Pharaoh glass in his hand, since you used to do it when eras his cobut. 14Acuérdate, then, of me when you have that good, and I request you that you use with me of mercy, and you mention me to Pharaoh, and you remove to me from this house. 15Porque I was stolen of the Earth of the Hebrews; and I have not done either here they would put why me in the jail. 16Viendo the head of the bakers whom it had interpreted for good, it said to Jose: Also I dreamed that I saw three white small baskets on my head. 17En the highest small basket had of all class of manjares of pastry shop for Pharaoh; and they ate them to the birds of the small basket of on my head. 18Entonces responded Jose, and said: This is its interpretation: The three small baskets three days are. 19The end of three days will clear Pharaoh your head of on you, and it will make you hang in the gift, and the birds will eat your meat of on you. 20The third day, that was the day of the birthday of Pharaoh, the king made banquet to all crew members; and it raised the head of the head of the coperos, and the head of the head of the bakers, between its servants. 21E made return to its office to the head of the coperos, and gave this one the glass in hand of Pharaoh. 22Mas made hang to the head of the bakers, since it had interpreted it Jose. 23Y the head of the coperos did not remember Jose, but it forgot to him.
The beginning of the public manifestation of the gift of Jose in Egypt, is the interpretation of the dreams from God. This gift, to the be it used and hide-and-seek it in front of the town would not more ahead serve to Jose as safe-conduct for its blessing and the one to him as its nation.
The captain of the guard, Potifar, although no longer had to Jose in its house, because of its wife, knew of the loyalty of Jose and it orders to two prisoners of relevance, who better than he? , which does not know Potifar is that it is part of the plan of God to free to Israel and Jose of the jail, and that would get to be its own head.
We observe as Jose intercedes by his own situation speaking to cobut of Pharaoh, who although forgets him, it is in its memory the experience of to have enjoyed the message from God, of a manifestation of a man sent by the Gentleman in its life. To the opportune time, to the time settled down by God that man, cobut would remember Jose.
Jose interprets the dreams of Pharaoh
GENESIS: CHAPTER 41
It occurred that past two years a dream had Pharaoh… … And Pharaoh woke up, and I have was dream here. 8Sucedió that in the morning was anxious its spirit, and sent and made call to all the magicians of Egypt, and all wise people; and it told to Pharaoh its dreams them, but there was not one that could interpret Pharaoh. 9Entonces the head of the coperos spoke to Pharaoh, saying: I decide to me today my lack. 10Cuando Pharaoh one got angry against its servants it threw, us to the prison of the house of the captain of the guard and to the head of the bakers. 11Y it and I had I dream in the same night, and each dream had its own meaning. 12Estaba there with us a Hebrew young person, servant of the captain of the guard; and we told it, and he interpreted our dreams to us, and declared to each according to his dream. 13Y occurred that as he interpreted them to us, thus it was: I was restored in my position, and the other was hung. 14Entonces Pharaoh sent and called to Jose. They hastily removed and it from the jail, and one shaved, and it changed its dresses, and it came to Pharaoh. 15Y said Pharaoh to Jose: I have been a sleepy, and there is not one interprets that it; but I have heard say of you, that you hear dreams to interpret them. 16Respondió Jose to Pharaoh, saying: He is not in me; God will be the one that gives propitious answer to Pharaoh. 17Entonces Pharaoh said to Jose: In my dream it seemed that it was to the border of the river; 18y that of the river to seven cows of heavy meats and beautiful appearance raised, that grazed in the meadow. 19Y that other seven cows raised after them, skinny and of very ugly aspect; so debilitated, that I have not seen other resemblances in ugliness in all the land of Egypt. 20Y the skinny and ugly cows devoured the seven first fat cows; 21y these entered their entrails, but it was not known that they had entered, because the skinny appearance of the still bad era, like at the outset. And I woke up. 22Vi also dreaming, that seven ears grew in a same cane, beautiful floods and. 23Y that other seven slight, withered ears, lowered of the wind solano, grew after them; 24y the slight ears devoured to the seven beautiful ears; I have said and it to the magicians, but there is not one who interpret it to me. 25Entonces responded Jose to Pharaoh: The dream of Pharaoh is one same one; God has shown Pharaoh which is going to do. 26Las seven beautiful cows seven years are; and the beautiful ears are seven years: the dream is one same one. 27También the seven skinny and ugly cows that raised after them, are seven years; and the seven slight and withered ears of the wind solano, seven years will be of hunger. 28Esto is what I respond to Pharaoh. What God is going to do has shown, it Pharaoh. 29He comes seven years here from great abundance in all the land of Egypt. 30Y after them will follow seven years of hunger; and all the abundance will be forgotten in the Earth of Egypt, and the hunger will consume the Earth. 31Y that one abundance will not lie down to see, because of the following hunger which will be very serious. 32Y happening the dream to Pharaoh twice, means that the thing is firm from God, and that God hurries to do it. 33Por as much, now provides Pharaoh with a prudent and wise man, and póngalo on the Earth of Egypt. 34Haga this Pharaoh, and puts governors on the country, and quinte the Earth of Egypt in the seven years of the abundance. 35Y joins all the provision of these good years that they come, and they gather the wheat under the hand of Pharaoh for maintenance of the cities; and they keep it. 36Y is that one provision in deposit for the country, for the seven years of hunger that will be in the Earth of Egypt; and the country will not perish of hunger.
There am the delivery of Jose to the use of its gift here, not only it implies to be brave before a situation that him could well have cost the life, knowing as the so powerful governors reacted, but includes a divine plan. This plan of God developing to Jose is translated partly in the vision clear of the project to solve a situation that a priori does not have adjustment. At the same time Jose, due to receiving the wisdom to set out the plan, knows that God also has to him provided of the power to take I finish it, and makes a suggestion, perhaps with the intention to be named ordered of that one project. This commendable attitude is the one that there are to have in our lives, those to look for the blessing of God and the one to be arranged to undertake the most difficult tasks knowing than the Gentleman it will provide to us.
Jose governs Egypt
The subject seemed well to Pharaoh and to its servants, 38y said Pharaoh to its servants: Perhaps we will find to another man like this one, in that is the spirit of God? 39Y said Pharaoh to Jose: Since God has let know all this you, you do not have understood nor wise like. 40Tú you will be on my house, and by your word all my town will govern itself; in the throne I greater will only be than you. 41Dijo in addition Pharaoh to Jose: I am I have put to you here on all the land of Egypt. 42Entonces Pharaoh cleared its ring of its hand, it put and it in the hand of Jose, it made and it dress clothes of linen finÃsimo, and put a gold necklace in his neck; he made 43y it raise in his second car, and announced in front of him: You double the knee! ; it put and it on all the land of Egypt. 44Y said Pharaoh to Jose: I am Pharaoh; and without you no will raise its hand nor its foot in all the land of Egypt. 45Y called Pharaoh the name of Jose, Zafnat-panea; and it gave him by woman to Asenat, daughter of Potifera priest of On. And Jose by all the earth left Egypt. 46Era Jose of age of thirty years when king of Egypt was presented/displayed in front of Pharaoh; and he left Jose in front of Pharaoh, and crossed all the land of Egypt. 47En those seven years of Earth abundance produced to piles. 48Y he reunited all the food of the seven years of abundance that was in the Earth of Egypt, and kept food in the cities, putting in each city the food of the field of its environs. 49Recogió Jose wheat like sand of the sea, much in end, until not being able to count, because he did not have number. 50Y was born to Jose two children before the first year came from the hunger, who gave light Asenat, daughter of Potifera priest of On. 51Y called Jose the name of the first-born, Manasés; because it said: God made forget all my work, and all the house me of my father. 52Y called the name of the second, EfraÃn; because it said: God made me fructify in the Earth of my affliction. 53Asà the seven years of abundance were marked that was in the Earth of Egypt. 54Y began to come the seven years from the hunger, since Jose had said; and there was hunger in all the countries, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. 55Cuando the hunger in all the land of Egypt felt, the town cried out to Pharaoh by bread. And Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians: You go to Jose, and you do what he will say to you. 56Y the hunger was in favor of all the extension of the country. Then it abrió to Jose all barn where there was, and sold the Egyptians; because the Earth hunger of Egypt had grown. 57Y of all the earth came to Egypt to buy of Jose, because by all the earth the hunger had grown.
The Gentleman uses Pharaoh to whom he himself had settled down in the position so that he understands the wisdom and the plan of God. We will pray then to the Gentleman so that it blesses to the governors and all type of person who is in decisive positions, although we do not like, so that they receive from Its part the order, without them to know it, to carry out everything what she is from blessing to the town of God, to the Church.
Each of us, has to perseverar in Christ. If this we also do we received from the Gentleman the clear vision of the solutions to the problems, and the power to carry out these projects. But the key is in being faithful to God in all type of circumstances, an unremovable faith and a confidence in God, although it is necessary to construct it in oration sensitizing itself it, always working to improve like children of God.
Jose begins his ministry of government from Egypt to the thirty years, another symbol of Christ who would begin his ministry of salvation of the world to the same age, when the Baptist was baptized by his prime Juan.
As government strategy Jose establishes fifth of the Earth, that is to say 20% of taxes. Rather lower than what estila in the economies of the first world, as far as taxes of societies, and something over the retention to an employee. Same rasero for all, that is to say, according to is prospered will be the volume of the same percentage.
Both children of Jose symbolize their two great internal experiences, the one forgetfulness of the distressing work through which he had to happen to survive because of the persecution for being of God, and the forgetfulness of his own brothers, those that they despised to him and they sold like slave. And the other the change that God made in its life indeed obey giving him blessing to him in the place where he had been heartbroken, indeed to obey to him. Elo that their names mean.
Jose accepted to Asenat like wife, the daughter of Potifera priest, who gave cult to the sun in On. Peculiarly On comes from the Hebrew root “on� that is light that means just like the Egyptian root iwnw. And in the same way the commander of the guard of king Potifar has the same root, both with reference to the sun, priest of the sun and son of the sun to which cult in On occurred, light. Without spirit to establish meaning, which we see is that the Gentleman puts Jose before whom in this culture they were the children of the light, or illuminated, one buys to him and the other gives its daughter him, but is that the one that puts to him to govern Egypt it was Ra call, that is the sun, another illuminating by God to bless finally to Jose and to Israel. On is the city that would be the later well-known one like Heliopolis, in the Hellenistic era of Great, faithful Alexander to the mythological thought, where the scholars would go to study taking the original name like place from wisdom illumination and knowledge.
We can suppose that Jose would have received from God the blessing of which her wife believed in the true living God, in Yahweh, but of course it will have been a fight costumary and traditions between both for the education of its children. Finally we have seen since they have been accepted in Israel and blessed by Jacob, which confirms that they received the faith of the Gentleman like education.
The brothers of Jose look for foods in Egypt
GENESIS: CHAPTER 42
Seeing Jacob who in Egypt were foods, it said to his children: Why you are watching yourselves? 2Y said: I have here, I have heard who are food in Egypt; you descend there, and you buy of there for us, so that we pruned to live, and we do not die. 3Y descended the ten brothers from Jose to buy wheat in Egypt. 4Mas Jacob did not send to Youngest child, brother of Jose, with its brothers; because it said: It is not that some disaster occurs to him. the children of Israel 5Vinieron to buy between which they came; because there was Earth hunger of Canaán. 6Y Jose was the Earth Mr., that sold all the Earth town to him; and the brothers arrived from Jose, and they inclined to him face to earth. 7Y Jose, when it saw its brothers knew, them; but it did because it did not know them, and it spoke to them roughly, and it said to them: From where you have come? They responded: Of the Earth of Canaán, to buy foods. 8José, then, knew its brothers; but they did not know him.
Jacob says that “he has heard�, and knowing Jacob which happened he is that God had spoken to him, but did not say it to its children because they were bad.
The first reaction of Jose is normal in our meat, of anger by the damage suffered by the people whom they detest to us, but the Gentleman, through gift that it gave him and as it knows the heart Jose makes him remember the dream so that it sees that this is part of the plan of God, and begins to work in his heart the pardon of them.
9Entonces remembered Jose the sleepy that it had been about them, and it said to them: Spies you are; to see the shortage of the country you have come. 10Ellos responded to him: No, Sir ours, but your servants have come to buy foods. 11Todos we are children of a man; we are honest men; your servants never were spies. 12Pero Jose said to them: No; in order to see the shortage of the country you have come. 13Y they responded: Your servants we are twelve brothers, children of an Earth man of Canaán; and there am the minor is here today with our father, and another one does not seem. 14Y Jose said to them: That is what there am saying to you, affirming that you are spies. 15En this you will be tried: Pharaoh lives, that you will not leave here, but when your smaller brother comes here. 16Enviad to one of you and brings your brother, and you are imprisoned, and your words will be proven, if there is truth in you; and if no, Pharaoh lives, that you are spies. 17Entonces he put them together in the jail by three days. 18Y to the third day said Jose to them: You do this, and you live: I fear God. 19Si you are honest men, it is imprisoned in the house of your jail one of your brothers, and you go and take the food for the hunger of your house. 20Pero you will bring your smaller brother, and will be verified your words, and you will not die. And did they it thus. 21Y said the one to the other: Truly we have sinned against our brother, because we saw the anguish of its soul when it requested to us, and we did not listen to him; for that reason we have come envelope this anguish. 22Entonces Rubén responded, saying to them: I did not speak and said to you: You do not sin against the young person, and you did not listen? I have also demands its blood here to us. 23Pero they did not know that Jose understood to them, because there was interpreter among them. 24Y separated Jose from them, and cried; later it returned to them, and it spoke to them, and it took among them to Simeón, it imprisoned and it in front of them. 25Después sent Jose that filled their coats of wheat, and gave back the money of each of them, putting it in its coat, and they would give food them for the way; and thus one took control of them. 26Y they put their wheat on their asses, and they went of there. 27Pero abriendo one of them its coat to give to eat to its ass in the inn, saw its money that was in the mouth of its bag. 28Y said to its brothers: My money has been given back to me, and helo here in my coat. Then the heart was frightened to them, and frightened they said the one to the other: What is this that God has done us?
Jose uses interprets not to occur to know, uses expressions as “Pharaoh lives� to confuse, but at the same time makes prepare so that they take to the food to his father and family. We will see the result and we will analyze because Jose does all these strategic maneuvers.
The brothers of Jose are conscious of the judgment of God reason why they did with him, and they pay the punishment of the scorn during all their life until they regret heart. They know that God is punishing to them from the stop and live afraid on which something bad happens to them at every moment, judge everything with fear, because his you bring back to consciousness are not clean. Quite the opposite of that they walk in uprightness and they see the hand of God, because of its hearts it emanates the love of God, the pardon, justice and the mercy. Rubén remembers the warning to them that did to them to all before badly treating Jose, and knows that everything what it happens to them is consequence of this.
29Y come to Jacob their earth father from Canaán, told everything him what it had occurred to them… … Then his father Jacob said to them: You have prevailed to me of my children; Jose does not seem, nor Simeón either, and to Youngest child you will take to him; against me they are all these things. 37Y Rubén spoke to its father, saying: You will make die to my two children, if I do not give back it to you; entrégalo in my hand, that will give back I it. 38Y he said: My son with you will not descend, because his brother is dead, and he has only been; and if some disaster in the way by where will occur to him you go, you make descend my grey hairs with pain to the Seol.
Again the first-born of Jacob intercedes by the survival of Israel, but his father does not accept so far.
The children of Jacob take to Youngest child to Egypt
GENESIS: CHAPTER 43
The hunger was great in the Earth; 2y occurred that when finished eating the wheat that brought of Egypt, his father said to them: You return, and you buy for us a little food. 3Respondió Judá, saying: That one man protested to us with solved spirit, saying: You will not see my face if you do not bring to your brother with you. 4Si you will send to our brother with us, we will descend and we will buy food to you. 5Pero if you will not send to him, we will not descend; because that one man said to us: You will not see my face if you do not bring to your brother with you. 6Dijo then Israel: Why you did so much to me badly, declaring the man that you had another brother? 7Y they responded: That one man asked to us specifically for us, and our family, saying: Lives still your father? You have another brother? And we declared to him according to these words. Perhaps we could know that he would say to us: You make come to your brother? 8Entonces Judá said to Israel its father: It sends to the young person with me, and we will rise and go, in order that we live and we do not die, and you, and our children. I am responsible 9Yo you for him; you will request account to me. If I you do not return it to bring, and if I do not put it in front of you, I will be for you the culprit for always; 10pues if there were not prisoner, certainly we had already returned twice. 11Entonces Israel its father responded to them: Since thus it is, hacedlo; you take from the best thing of the Earth in your coats, and take to that one man a present, a little balsam, a little honey, aromas and mirra, nuts and almonds. 12Y you take in your hands double amount from money, and take in your hand the money returned in the mouths of your bags; perhaps it was mistake. 13Tomad also to your brother, and levantaos, and you return to that one man. 14Y the Omnipotent God gives mercy you in front of that one man, and it loosen the other your brother, and to this Youngest child. And if there am to be private of my children, is it.
Finally Jacob accepts the will of God, one pretends adversity that in the end would be part of the plan of God by love to Its town. Thus it is with us, the Church anywhere in the world, in the lives of each in particular, that God sometimes takes by ways and adverse circumstances to us and we protested for this reason, not understanding that at the end of the tunnel it is the Light of Christ, and the hand of God sees with Its mercy and generosity. It is then when watching backwards in lived history that we can appreciate the complete plan of God. We must always watch the complete history of our lives and will see the hand of God.
Jacob finally gives the instructions to take before the Mr. of Egypt (Jose), the presents and the double of the money besides a his small son. He is the one who finally gives the strategy adding to requests of Jose. This is an education of the diplomacy and good intention that is due to show before the others, especially before the adversity, being that trusting God we build suitably in faith and, leaving the result in Its hands.
The intercession of Rubén the first-born of Israel does not seem to convince its father, but without knowing it is interceding by Jose, the first-born son of the loved one of Israel, Raquel. Finally Judá intercedes by its brother and is to this a that Jacob listens. Judá also was without knowing it interceding by all Israel being that the salvation comes from the Jews, and that salvation is Yahshua, of this tribe.
15Entonces the present took those men, and took in their hand double amount from money, and to Youngest child; and they rose and they descended to Egypt, and they appeared in front of Jose. 16Y saw Jose Youngest child with them, and said to the butler of its house: It takes to house to those men, and degüella a head of cattle and prepárala, because these men will eat at noon with me. 17E made the man as Jose said, and took to the men to house of Jose. 18Entonces those men had fear, when they were taken to house of Jose, and said: By the money that was given back in our bags the first time they have brought to us here, tender us bow, and to attack to us, and to take us by servants, and to our asses. 19Y approached the butler of the house of Jose, and they spoke to him to the entrance of the house. 20Y said: Ay, gentleman ours, we in fact really descended at the outset to buy foods. 21Y occurred that when we arrived at the Y-meson we abrimos our bags, there am the money of each was here in the mouth of its bag, our money in its right weight; and it we have returned to bring with us. 22Hemos also brought in our hands another money to buy foods; we do not know who has put our money in our bags. 23El responded to them: Peace, you do not fear; your God and the God of your father gave the treasure you in your bags; I received your money. And he removed them to Simeón. 24Y took that one man to the men to house of Jose; and it gave water, and washed its feet them, and gave to eat its asses. 25Y they prepared the present one meanwhile whom Jose came at noon, because they had heard that would have there to eat bread. 26Y came Jose to house, and they brought the present to him whom they had in his hand within the house, and they inclined before him until the Earth. 27Entonces asked Jose to them how they were, and said: Your father, the old one that you said passes, it well? He still lives? 28Y they responded: Our father goes well to your servant; still he lives. And they inclined, and they made reverence. 29Y raising Jose its eyes saw Youngest child its brother, son of its mother, and said: He is this one your smaller brother, of whom you spoke to me? And it said: God has mercy of you, son mine. 30Entonces Jose hurried, because their entrails because of their brother were affected, and looked for where to cry; and it entered its camera, and it cried there. 31Y washed its face and left, and it was contained, and it said: You put bread. 32Y put for him aside, and separately for them, and separate for the Egyptians who with him ate; because the Egyptians cannot eat bread with the Hebrews, which is abomination to the Egyptians. 33Y sat down in front of him, the major according to their primogenitura, and the minor according to their smaller age; and they were those overwhelmed men watching the one to the other. 34Y Jose took viandas from in front of himself for them; but the portion of Youngest child was five times greater than anyone of those of them. And they drank, and they were glad with him.
These are the steps that Jacob asked that they gave him before Jose, fulfilled all and he was to them well. Servant gave to eat to his asses, that symbolizes the spiritual load that brings they, by the blessing of their father Jacob and his Yahweh Father, to take angels escorting to them in the way. In the heat of repentance of the brothers of Jose, its servant brings water to wash the feet, symbol than Jesus Christ it did with the apostles, and symbol than we do when we regreted which we have done badly, by the dirt that sticks us in the feet when walking by the world, being this the spiritual contamination by which they surround to us with his ideas, concepts, traditions and forms of life generally, which are to clean of as much in as much following a life santa before God, reading the Bible always and praying so that when congregating to us all we pruned to share our experiences and to help us to an a others in friendship of God.
The order in that feels according to the age, symbolizes the spiritual order that Jose has brought his family, to its brothers. In the same way it is in the Church, it is necessary to establish spiritual order between the town of God, the brothers, in friendship, brotherly affection, love of God, respect, dignity and mutual aid.
Â
The glass of Jose
GENESIS: CHAPTER 44
Jose commanded to the butler of his house, saying: Food flood the bags of these men, whatever can take, and pon the money of each in the mouth of their bag. 2Y you will put my glass, the glass of silver, in the mouth of the bag of the minor, with the money of its wheat. And he did as Jose said. 3Venida the morning, the men were dismissed with their asses. 4Habiendo they left the city, of whom not yet had moved away, said Jose to their butler: Levántate and follows those men; and when the reaches, deals: Why you have returned bad by good? Why you have robbed my glass of silver? 5She is not this one in which my gentleman drinks, and by that usually he guesses? You have done badly in which you did. 6Cuando reached he them, said these words to them. 7Y they responded to him: Why he says to our gentleman such things? So your servants never do. 8He here, the money that we found in the mouth of our bags, you we returned it to bring from the Earth of Canaán; how, then, we had to steal of house of your gentleman silver nor gold? 9Aquel of your servants in that will be found the glass, that dies, and we will even be servants of my gentleman. 10Y he said: Also now it is according to your words; that one in that will be will be my servant, and you will be without fault. then 11Ellos hurried, and demolishing each his earth bag, it abrió to everyone the bag his. 12Y looked for; from the major it began, and it finished in the minor; and the glass was found in the bag of Youngest child. 13Entonces they tore their dresses, and loaded each their ass and returned to the city. 14Vino Judá with their brothers to house of Jose, who still was there, and was postraron in front of him in earth. 15Y said Jose to them: What action is this that you have done? You do not know that a man as I know to guess? 16Entonces said Judá: What we will say Sir? What we will speak, or whereupon we will justify ourselves? God has found the badness of your servants; I have here, we we are servants of my gentleman, we, and also that one in whose power the glass was found. 17José responded: I so never do. The man in whose power the glass was found, he will be my servant; you go peacefully to your father.
All this machination is the strategy of Jose to be making now bring its father, but in this point Jose it sins by resentment in pride and revenge then already could have presented its brothers but the resentment could to him, that is the disease by which the man cannot pardon, until he learns to pardon because he includes/understands that the man is dust and to the dust will return, because can see the beam in its own eye, so that it can forget, so that the reconciliation occurs, that yes when the other part has changed its attitude and is had sorry, that is the case of the brothers of Jose, at least of some of them. The repentance of that they sin is not essential to pardon, but to reconcile. … Father, perdónalos because they do not know what they do… Lucas 23:34.
Intercesión de Judá before Jose by BenjamÃn and Jacob
Then Judá approached him, and said: Ay, gentleman mine, I request to you that you allow that speaks to your servant a word in ears of my gentleman, and your anger against your servant does not ignite, because you are like Pharaoh… … 30Ahora, then, when I return to your servant my father, if the young person does not go with me, as its life is ligature to the life of him, 31sucederá that when does not see the young person, she will die; and your servants will make descend the grey hairs from your servant our father with pain to the Seol. 32Como your servant left by fastener of the young person with my father, saying: If you I do not return it to bring, then I will be guilty before my father for always; 33te request, therefore, that is now your servant instead of the young person by servant of my gentleman, and who the young person goes with his brothers. 34Porque how will return I father without the young person? I will not be able, not to see the evil that will happen father.
Again we see the intercession of Judá before Jose by its brother Youngest child, by love of its father, Jacob, the intercession by the blessing of Israel. Jose finishes seeing that if follows in its way it kills his father and it accedes to the intercession of Judá. The Church also must listen to much of the Messianic Jews because in the last time the Church needs to change of attitude, because these Messianic brothers, those that really are it, those that they love Jesus Christ, Yahshua the MesÃas the Son of Yahweh who died in the Cross of the Calvary do almost two thousand years and revived of deads, ascending the Father and live and reign. Yahshua is with us every day in Spirit Santo, and these brothers are had sorry of not to have received the Salvation of God in Christ and fulfilling the prophecy of Romans 11:25 to the 36, until they turn to the rest of Israel.
All the men we sinned, the twelve children of Israel sinned, but in the school of the life before the Gentleman, those that have an afraid heart of God, they are blessed with the gift of the faith, and change his conducts, they change to his mind in the call repentance, and begin to bear worthy fruits of repentance. This is the situation in which we found to Judá, by who, as we know, comes Jesus Christ, the one that intercedes by us before the Father. But still it has but that to see in this education in the history of Judá. He is that until this point he is interceding by the blessing of his father before Jose, and Jose is in Egypt, that symbolizes the world, that is to say, the gentile ones, those that are not of the town of Israel, but by that God also sends to Its Son to save to us. In this way, Judá, is convincing to us that the Father suffers by his children and who we must be merciful with our fellow, in this case being Jose the one who is in the world, being merciful with Israel, that is Jacob. The world has detested to the house of Israel, and they have detested to the MesÃas that comes from Judá, therefore pending it is the reconciliation of the Jews with the MesÃas Yahshua and the one of the world with Israel, both by Judá in the Word of the Leon of this tribe.
Jose is discovered to his brothers
GENESIS: CHAPTER 45
Jose could not already be contained in front of that they were alongside his, and cried out: You make leave my presence to all. And it was not nobody with him, when occurring to meet Jose its brothers. 2Entonces occurred to cry to shouts; and the Egyptians heard, and also heard the house of Pharaoh. 3Y said Jose to its brothers: I am Jose; lives still my father? And their brothers could not respond to him, because they were disturbed in front of him. 4Entonces said Jose to its brothers: Acercaos now. And they approached. And he said: I am Jose your brother, the one that you sold for Egypt. 5Ahora, then, you do not become sad, nor weighs to you to me to have sold here; because for life preservation it sent God to me in front of you. 6Pues already have been two years of hunger in the middle of the Earth, and still they are five years in which neither it will have plowed nor it harvests. 7Y God sent to me in front of you, for preservaros posterity on the Earth, and daros life by means of great liberation.
Jose, father of EfraÃn and Manasés, symbolize the Church that has perseverado to give food to the world and to Israel. Yes, the Church of Christ is the greater force than it has on the Earth, even with his defects, sins, divisions and denominations, those that we are Church, those that of heart fights the good battle of the faith, being in the part of the body that is, has provided to the continuity world influencing in all the countries and governments that have been existing in the first world, after political wars and changes, and finally are returning to pray and to intercede by Israel until the fulfillment of the prophecy of the Bible in which all Israel will believe in Yahshua, of which are waiting room the Messianic Jews.
8AsÃ, then, you, but God to me, that has put to me by father of Pharaoh and gentleman of all their house, and by governor in all the land of Egypt did not send here. 9Daos haste, you go father and decidle: Thus Jose says to your son: God has put to me by gentleman of all Egypt; they see, you do not pause. 10Habitarás in the Earth of Gosén, and you will be near me, and your children, and the children of your children, your cattles and your cows, and everything what you have. 11Y I will feed to you there, because still they are five years of hunger, so that you do not perish of poverty and your house, and everything what you have. 12He here, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Youngest child, that my mouth speaks to you. 13Haréis, then, to know to father all my glory in Egypt, and everything what you have seen; and daos haste, and you bring father here. 14Y lay down on the neck of Youngest child its brother, and cried; and also Youngest child cried on its neck. 15Y kissed to all brothers, and cried envelope they; and later their brothers spoke with him. 16Y heard the news in the house of Pharaoh, saying: The brothers of Jose have come. And this pleased in the eyes of Pharaoh and his servants. 17Y said Pharaoh to Jose: I gave your brothers: You do this: you load your beasts, and you go, you return to the Earth of Canaán; 18y you take to your father and your families and come, because I will give the good thing you of the Earth of Egypt, and will eat of the abundance of the Earth. 19Y you offer: You do this: tomaos of the Earth of Egypt cars for your children and your women, and you bring your father, and you come. 20Y you do not worry about your equipment, because the Earth wealth of Egypt will be yours. 21Y made therefore the children of Israel; and it gave to Jose cars them according to the order of Pharaoh, and it provided food to them for the way. 22A each of all of them gave dumb of dresses, and to Youngest child it gave three hundred pieces of silver, and five dumb ones of dresses. 23Y to its father sent this: ten asses loaded of the best thing of Egypt, and ten asnas loaded of wheat, and bread and food, for its father in the way. 24Y dismissed its brothers, and they went away. And he said to them: You do not fight by the way. 25Y raised of Egypt, and arrived at the Earth from Canaán at Jacob their father. 26Y gave the new ones, saying him: Jose still lives; and he is Sir in all the land of Egypt. And the heart of Jacob was troubled, because it did not believe them. 27Y they told all the words him of Jose, who he had spoken to them; and seeing Jacob the cars that Jose sent to take it, its spirit revivió. 28Entonces said Israel: It is enough; Jose my son still lives; I will go, and I will see him before I die.
Jose declares to his brothers the plan of God, exempts of the fault putting in front the plan to them of God to the treatment that received from them. The reconciliation is the best medicine of the heart when both parts regret and show their change of attitude by their fruits, the form to try and to act. From this point everything is blessings for the house of Jacob.
Pharaoh even adds more blessing, since he and its town greatly has been blessed by Jose and he gives back the blessing to them with the Earth, is more, in his wisdom he understands that if Jose has been of blessing for Egypt, more blessing would come to Egypt with the rest of its family.
You do not fight. Jose knows his brothers, and knows that the meat of them, and the one of some of them, who we will see in the prophecy of Jacob exceeds they, is especially an rebellious meat.
Jacob recovers forces, surely that with this joy the father of family even in his old age, receives such blessing spiritual that he gives back the desire to him to live, and verified is in medicine that this prolongs its life several years, which would be for living this blessing. In the same way our Father is glad before the reconciliation of His town and prolongs and increases the blessing of does which it.
Israel arrives at Egypt
GENESIS: CHAPTER 46
Israel left yet what had, and came to Beerseba, and offered sacrifices to the God of its Isaac father. 2Y at night spoke God to Israel in visions, and said: Jacob, Jacob. And it responded: Heme here. 3Y said: I am God, the God of your father; nonsubjects to descend to Egypt, because there I will make of you a great nation. 4Yo I will descend with you to Egypt, and I also will make you return; and the hand of Jose will close your eyes… … 28Y sent Jacob to Judá in front of himself to Jose, so that it came to see to him in Gosén; and they arrived at the Earth of Gosén. 29Y Jose unció its car and came to receive to Israel its father in Gosén; and one pronounced him, and one lay down on its neck, and it cried long on its neck. 30Entonces Israel said to Jose: I now die, since I have seen your face, and know that still you live. 31Y Jose said to its brothers, and the house of its father: I will raise I will let and it know to Pharaoh, and I will say to him: My brothers and the house of my father, that was in the Earth of Canaán, have come. 32Y the men are shepherds of ewes, because they are cattle men; and they have brought his ewes and their cows, and everything what they had. 33Y when Pharaoh calls and says to you: Which is your office? 34entonces you will say: Men of cattle ranch have been your servants from our youth until now, we and our parents; in order that you dwell in the Earth of Gosén, because for the Egyptians all shepherd of ewes is abomination.
The first that does Jacob before going to the blessing is to look for the presence of God to make sacrifice. God speaks to him at night in visions since usually it makes with us when we looked for to him of heart, to indicate themselves and to confirm the way. Israel sends to Egypt to Judá so that Jose came to see him, another symbol of which Judá brings to Jose to Israel, this is the Jews to the Gentile ones. Indeed a shepherd of ewes is the one that governed Egypt for Pharaoh.
GENESIS: CHAPTER 47
Wine Jose let and it know to Pharaoh, and said: My father and my brothers, and its ewes and their cows, what they have yet, they have come from the Earth of Canaán, and I have are here in the Earth of Gosén. 2Y of the rearward ones of its brothers took five men, it presented/displayed and them in front of Pharaoh. 3Y Pharaoh said to its brothers: Which is your office? And they responded to Pharaoh: Shepherds of ewes are your servants, therefore we like our parents. they 4Dijeron in addition to Pharaoh: In order to dwell in this earth we have come; because it does not have I graze for the ewes of your servants, because the hunger is serious in the Earth of Canaán; therefore, we requested to you now that you allow that they inhabit your Earth servants of Gosén. 5Entonces Pharaoh spoke to Jose, saying: Your father and your brothers have come. 6La land of Egypt in front of you is; in the best thing of the Earth you do to live to your father and your brothers; they live in the Earth of Gosén; and if you understand that there are among them able men, ponlos by mayorales of the cattle mine. 7También Jose introduced to Jacob its father, it presented/displayed and it in front of Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh. 8Y said Pharaoh to Jacob: How many they are the days of the years of your life? 9Y Jacob responded to Pharaoh: The days of the years of my peregrination are one hundred thirty years; few and bad have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not arrived at the days of the years of the life of my parents in the days of his peregrination. 10Y Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and left the presence of Pharaoh. 11Asà Jose made live to its father and his brothers, and it gave Earth possession them of Egypt, in the best thing of the Earth, the Earth of Ramesés, as Pharaoh commanded. 12Y fed Jose its father and his brothers, and all the house of its father, with bread, according to the number of the children.
It does not have I graze in the promised Earth, because still it was not the time. This symbolizes that the Jews who received to Jesus in time of the New Testament, initiate the Church in the days of Jesus having to leave Jerusalem. It is necessary to shepherd the ewes of Egypt so that they know the Gentleman, because they bless with many things. In the same way Jacob blesses this Pharaoh. Pharaoh offers the best thing to Jacob, since it is a blessing for him, for his town.
13No was bread in all the earth, and the hunger was very serious, reason why it became weak of Earth hunger of Egypt and the Earth of Canaán. 14Y picked up Jose all the money that was in the Earth of Egypt and the Earth of Canaán, by the foods that of him they bought; and it put Jose the money in house of Pharaoh. 15Acabado the money of the Earth of Egypt and the Earth of Canaán, all Egypt came to Jose, saying: Damages bread; why we will die in front of you, by to have finished the money? 16Y Jose said: You give your cattles and will give I you by your cattles, if the money has finished. 17Y they brought their cattles to Jose, and Jose gave foods them by horses, and the cattle of the ewes, and by the cattle of the cows, and by asses; and he sustained of bread by all cattles that one year to them. 18Acabado that one year, they came to him the second year, and they said to him: We did not conceal our gentleman who the money certainly has finished; also the cattle is already of our gentleman; nothing has been in front of our gentleman but our bodies and our earth. 19Why will die in front of your eyes, therefore we like our earth? Cómpranos and to our earth by bread, and we will be and our earth servants of Pharaoh; and damages seed so that we live and we do not die, and the Earth is not knocked down. 20Entonces bought Jose all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; then the Egyptians sold each their earth, because the hunger worsened exceeds they; and the Earth came to be from Pharaoh. 21Y to made it to the town happen to the cities, from an end to the other of the territory of Egypt. 22Solamente the Earth of the priests did not buy, inasmuch as the priests had ration of Pharaoh, and they ate the ration that Pharaoh gave them; for that reason they did not sell his earth. 23Y Jose said to the town: I have I have bought to you here today, and to your earth, for Pharaoh; you see seed here, and you will seed the Earth. 24De the fruits you will give to the fifth a Pharaoh, and the four parts will be yours to seed earth, and for your maintenance, and of which they are in your houses, and so that they eat your children. 25Y they responded: The life you have given us; we find grace in eyes of our gentleman, and are servants of Pharaoh. 26Entonces to Jose put it by law until today on the Earth of Egypt, indicating for Pharaoh fifth, except the only Earth of the priests, that was not of Pharaoh. 27Asà inhabited Earth Israel of Egypt, in the Earth of Gosén; and they took possession from her, and they were increased, and they multiplied in great way.
The town, the society everything, does not learn of the education that occurred to the Pharaoh before periods came both from seven years. If each had kept a part in its own barn for the years from hunger would not have had to buy to Jose the grain to him, they would not have had to finally change to him to the cattle and the Earth and its own lives, becoming slaves. Just like it happens today with the banking credits, the mortgages, the unnecessary consumption, etc, to which we can make us enslaved.
Llama the attention that being seen Pharaoh who Jose had the blessing of the true God, and having seen that their priests did not know the truth, continues maintaining its earth and its sustenance, because it was the unique way that had Pharaoh to remain over Jose before the minds of the town. Jose does not reveal itself against him, nor either usurps the throne of Egypt. It is this for the reflection. Today many monks are illuminated by other many that have the Truth of Christ, but they see although do not change it its lives.
28Y lived Earth Jacob on Egypt seventeen years; and they were the days of Jacob, the years of its life, one hundred forty and seven years. 29Y arrived the days of Israel to die, and called to Jose their son, and it said to him: If I have found grace in your eyes now, I request to you that you put your hand underneath my thigh, and you will make with me mercy and truth. I request to you that you do not bury to me in Egypt. 30Mas when it sleeps with my parents, you will take to me of Egypt you will bury and me in the tomb of them. And Jose responded: I will do as you say. 31E Israel said: Júramelo. And Jose swore to him. Then Israel inclined on the head of the bed.
The hand underneath the thigh was the symbol of the oath. Jacob asks to leave Egypt for his grave, because in our heart, although we find material blessings in the world, to live, our heart has to be of God, we do not have to be Egypt but looking for the Sky, the Earth of the Gentleman, the spiritual citizenship. The man of God, represented by Jacob, does not want that its memory is in Egypt, asks to be taken to the Earth that the Gentleman promised to him, although has not seen the promise still fulfilled, therefore he is by faith.
Jacob blesses to EfraÃn and Manasés
GENESIS: CHAPTER 48
It happened after these things that said to Jose: There am your father is ill here. And it took with himself his two children, Manasés and EfraÃn. 2Y informed to him to Jacob, saying: There am your son Jose comes here. Then Israel strived, and it sat down on the bed, 3y said to Jose: The Omnipotent God appeared to me in Earth Light of Canaán, and it blessed to me, 4y said to me: I am I will let you here grow, and I will multiply to you, and I will put to you by ancestry of nations; and I will give this earth to your descendants after you by you inherit perpetual.
Following the line of the Light on which she found Jose in Egypt, to Potifar and Potifera and its daughter, which you take care of knew it of On, who was light for them, Jacob comes in their encounter with Yahweh in Betel the called city earth Light of Canaán. All the towns look for the Light of God that is an order in our heart. It shows this us that God takes to its children with whom they are the best light of the different places from the world, puts with to us that are near Him, Who is the true Light of the world, so that we give the Light them of Christ teaching who the religions and the cults do not bring the true Light; we, who also we are called light, can bring the true Light if we preached the Gospel of which it is the Light that illuminates all man and who became meat, Juan 1.
5Y now your two children EfraÃn and Manasés, who were born to you in the Earth of Egypt, before he came to the Earth of Egypt, mine are; like Rubén and Simeón, they will be mine. 6Y those that after them you have generated, will be yours; by the name of his brothers they will be called in his heredades. 7Porque when I came from Padan-aram, died Raquel to me in the Earth of Canaán, in the way, like average legua of earth coming to Efrata; there I buried and it in the way of Efrata, that is Bethlehem. 8Y saw Israel the children of Jose, and said: Who are these? 9Y responded Jose to its father: They are my children, who God has given me here. And he said: Acércalos now, I will bless and them. 10Y the eyes of Israel were in favor so agravated of the oldness, that could not see. It made them, then, approach him, and he kissed to them and he embraced to them. 11Y said Israel to Jose: I did not think to see your face, and there am has made me here to God also see your descendants. 12Entonces removed them to Jose among its knees, and it inclined to earth. 13Y took Jose to both, EfraÃn to its right, the left of Israel, and Manasés to its left, the right of Israel; it approached and them him. 14Entonces Israel extended its right hand, it put and it on the head of EfraÃn, that was the minor, and its left hand on the head of Manasés, thus placing its hands deliberately, although Manasés was the first-born. 15Y blessed Jose, saying: The God in whose presence they walked my parents Abraham and Isaac, the God whom since maintains to me I am until this day, 16el Angel frees that me of all evil, blesses these young people; and my name is perpetuated in them, and the name of my parents Abraham and Isaac, and multiply in great way in the middle of the Earth. 17Pero seeing Jose who his father put the right hand on the head of EfraÃn, caused this misfortune to him; and it grasped the hand from its father, to at the top change it of the head of EfraÃn of Manasés. 18Y said Jose to its father: Not thus, father mine, because this one is the first-born; pon your right hand on its head. 19Mas its father did not want, and said: I know it, son mine I know, it; also it will come to be a town, and will be also engrandecido; but his smaller brother will be greater than he, and its descendants will form multitude of nations. 20Y blessed that one day, saying: In you it will bless Israel, saying: Hágate God like a EfraÃn and a Manasés. And it put to EfraÃn before Manasés. 21Y said Israel to Jose: I am I die here; but God will be with you, and it will make you return to the Earth of your parents. 22Y I have reported one more to you than to your brothers, which I took from I flow of the amorreo with my sword and my arc.
Your children, mine are includes, them in the tribes of Israel, since in the attainment of the time, are cleared two tribes, Dan and EfraÃn, being Manasés to complete the 12. This is spiritual. Efra-in the same root that Efra-ta that is Bethlehem, from where the MesÃas would be born, the Christ according to the prophecy. EfraÃn symbolizes, as well as its father then Jose when it was in Egypt, to the Church in his institutional part, because he is in fact his Manasés brother the first-born and the one that is including in the twelve tribes counted between the 144,000 seals of Apocalypse 7. The part of the Church is then Manasés that symbolizes the souls, the people that of heart they love God, and EfraÃn the part of the Church that symbolizes the institution, the symbolic Babylon, which falls before the true believer. Because the children of Jose in Egypt are blessed, and are blessed with the form of you inherit spiritual of Jacob, the minor first.
Prophecy of Jacob on its children
GENESIS: CHAPTER 49
And Jacob called to his children, and said: Juntaos, and I will declare to you what it has to you to occur in the coming days. 2 Juntaos and you hear, children of Jacob, and listen your Israel father.
3 Rubén, you are my first-born, my strength, and the principle of my vigor; Main in dignity, main in being able. 4 Impetuous like waters, you will not be the main one, inasmuch as you raised I milk of your father; Then envileciste, raising to you estrado.
5 Simeón and Levà are brother; Arms of iniquity its arms. 6 In his advice not between my soul, nor my spirit it is joined in his company. Because in his rage they killed men, and in their recklessness desjarretaron bulls. 7 Damn its rage, that was fierce; And its wrath, that was hard. Will separate I them in Jacob, I will scatter and them in Israel.
8 Judá, will praise your brothers to you; Your hand in the cervix of your enemies; The children of your father will incline. 9 Puppy of lion, Judá; Of the prey you raised, son mine. One bent over, lay down like lion, as well as old lion: it will wake up who it? 10 it will not be cleared the sceptre of Judá, nor the legislator among its feet, until Siloh comes; And to him the towns will congregate themselves. 11 Tying to the grapevine his pollino, and the stock the son of his asna, washed in the wine his dress, and the blood of grapes his mantle. 12 Its eyes, red of the wine, and their white teeth of milk.
13 Zabulón in seaports will live; It will be for port of ships, and its limit until Sidón.
14 Isacar, strong ass that recuesta between the apriscos; 15 and it saw that the rest was good, and that the Earth was delightful; And it lowered his shoulder to take, and served in tribute.
16 Dan will judge their town, like one of the tribes of Israel. 17 It will be Give serpent next to the way, viper next to the footpath, that bites the heels of the horse, and makes fall backwards to the rider. 18 Your salvation I hoped, oh Yahweh.
19 Gad, will undertake it to army; But it will undertake to the aim.
20 the bread of Aser will be substancioso, and it will give delights to the king. 21 NeftalÃ, cierva loose, that will pronounce beautiful sayings.
22 fruitful Branch is Jose, fruitful branch next to a source, whose piston rods extend on the wall. 23 they caused bitterness to Him, they shot with arrows to him, and they detested the arqueros to him; 24 But its arc stayed powerful, and the arms of their hands were fortified by the hands of the Fort of Jacob, 25 By the God of your father, who will help you, by the Omnipotent God, which will bless to you with blessings of the skies of above, with blessings of the abyss which he is down, with blessings of the chests and the belly. The 26 blessings of your father were majors that the blessings of my ancestors; Until the term of cols ether to us they will be on the head of Jose, and the forehead del that was separated among its brothers.
27 Youngest child is captivating wolf; To the morning it will eat the prey, and to afternoon it will distribute despoliation.
Death and burial of Jacob
28Todos these were the twelve tribes of Israel, and this was what his father said to them, when blessing them; to each by to his it blessed them blessing. 29Les commanded then, and it said to them: I am going to be reunited with my town. Sepultadme with my parents in the cave that is in the field of Efrón the heteo, 30en the cave that is in the field of Macpela, to the east of Mamre in the Earth of Canaán, which bought Abraham with the same field of Efrón the heteo, for you inherit of grave. 31Allà buried to Abraham and Sara his wife; there they buried to Isaac and Rebeca his wife; there also I buried to I read. 32La buys of the field and of the cave that is in him, it was of the children of Het. 33Y when Jacob giving orders finished to his children, he shrank its feet in the bed, and expired, and was reunited with its parents…
On the other hand Jacob asks to be buried in the tomb of Macpela, where they are his parents, and obeying the spiritual order it is the place where he buried to Reads, the first wife who corresponded to him by age, because the major was given to him first, and he was the minor and blessed the minor first. Raquel, loved his, nevertheless were buried in the way to Efrata, Bethlehem in the chapter 48:7. We would have hoped that it asked to be buried with Raquel. This has a meaning of spiritual order. Of the way in which he obtained the primogenitura that despised its twin brother but greater and first-born Esaú, he blessed in sequence to the children of Jose in opposition to the birth, the first minor like him. Nevertheless for his grave it does not go with Raquel, but with It reads that she is the mother of Judá, from where comes the salvation of the world, and Raquel that is the mother of Jose provides to whom it saves to Judá, Jose, so that Israel continues existing. In the engaged Earth are both grave places, but most showy it is the union of circumstances between the two spouses of Jacob, both children united in the salvation plan, Judá and Jose, and how the place of the birth of the MesÃas is near the tomb of Raquel the mother of Jose, whereas It reads is with the patriarchs. Everything a divine plan so that Gentile Jews and in Jesus Christ are united.
Death of Jose
GENESIS: CHAPTER 50
… Seeing the brothers of Jose who his father was dead, they said: Perhaps it will detest Jose to us, and it will give the payment us of all the evil that we did to him. 16Y sent to say to Jose: Your father commanded before his death, saying: 17Asà you will say to Jose: I request to you that pardons now the badness of your brothers and their sin, because badly they tried to you; therefore, now we requested to you that pardons the badness of the servants of the God of your father. And Jose cried while they spoke. their brothers also 18Vinieron and they were postraron in front of him, and they said: Hays here by servants yours. 19Y responded Jose to them: You do not fear; perhaps am I instead of God? 20Vosotros you thought badly against me, but he directed it to God to good, to make what we see today, while still alive to maintain much town. 21Ahora, then, you are not scared; I will sustain and to your children. He consoled thus them, and he spoke to them to the heart. 22Y inhabited Jose in Egypt, he and the house of its father; and it lived Jose one hundred ten years. 23Y saw Jose the children of EfraÃn until the third generation; also the children of Maquir son of Manasés were bred on the knees of Jose. 24Y Jose said to its brothers: I am going to die; but God certainly will visit to you, and it will make raise you of this earth the Earth that swore to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 25E made swear Jose to the children of Israel, saying: God certainly will visit, and you will make take to you here of my bones. 26Y died Jose at the age of one hundred ten years; they embalsamaron and it, and was put in a coffin in Egypt.
The brothers of Jose not yet have learned the value of the pardon, of when it is forgiven of heart, forgets the evil that has done to him to one, no longer counts. In the same way Mr. God of mercy pardons our sins to us when we regreted heart and no longer he remembers more them, watches like a his loved children, as we read in Hebrew 10:17.
“You do not fear�, also one said Jesus to the disciples, and “peace to it� when he appeared among them. He spoke to them to the heart, is a practice that is had lost in the today society, but we can recover it, at least in the Church.
Finally Jose prophesies to his brothers on the future conquest of Canaán, which would happen at the hands of Joshua when they left Egypt about four hundred years later.

CONCLUSION
JOSE IN THE SPIRITUAL DICTIONARY OF josephmorrisministries.org
Jose in Egypt is the history of whatever he loves God, that receives revelation of Him, like the dreams of Jose, that although detest our own brothers to us, or same types, we will have an equal situation to the one of this spiritual ancestor ours, that sees like its father, that it represents our Celestial Father, does not forget him and it loves to him, although it allows him to pass a test, also rejects the woman of Potifar, who represents the soul of Potifar, that is its ways to walk in Egypt, the world, for being straight with God and not to follow the world it is jailed, but freed and everything so that in the end it is the vehicle of the salvation of the spiritual town of God, the brothers of Jose, our neighbors, fellow workers and relatives, who will see as they are going to regret. … My Word never will return empty…
Genesis 37:5 to the 11, 37:12 to the 28, 39:1 to the 18, 39:19 to the 23, Psalms 105:17, Facts 7:9, Hebrew 11:22.
An education that we must learn in the experience of Jose is the gift of dreams, to be pending of the voice of God in our lives. God speaks which they love to him and shows the solution of the different situations from our lives.
The aid of God we can face all type of experiences, are adverse or confused and to leave victorious if our heart is in its hands and we regreted when it corresponds.
I will conclude with a review to the seven qualities that we have learned: To be faithful to God always; To do well to the fellow in the adversity; To use the gift that God us of; To give glory to God insofar as the gift is His; To provide solution to the problems; To assume the responsibility that corresponds to us and to pardon. If we want to grow spiritually we can combine these qualities with the seven steps of growth that there are to raise, exposed in the Virtue, because in this way we will fall never. That La Paz and the light of the Gentleman always accompanies to them, and who their hearts are guided by the hand of God that shows the Way to us, that one that is the mirror in which there are to watch to us, our Mr. Jesus Christ, that one who are the Light of the world. Amen.
