Truth Exposed:  Genealogy

In Genesis 37:26-28 we read Joseph is sold into slavery.  Here is the family tree:  Jacob is the grandson of Abraham from Isaac through Sarah, making Joseph his great-grandson.  The Ishmaelites, from Ishmael of Hagar, and Midianites, from Midian of Keturah, Genesis 25:1-2, were also great-grands, making everyone in this narrative 2nd cousins.  And all Gentiles.  Fascinating family dynamics!  Biblical genealogy is so important and never boring.

 

Read carefully.

Ask questions.

Know your scriptures.
