CHAPTER 37

Joseph, a young man of seventeen, was tending the flocks with his brothers, and he brought their father a bad report about them.

Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age, and he made a

RICHLY ORNAMENTED ROBE for him. When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him. New International Version ©1984, Abrdgd, EMPHASES Added

CHAPTER 37

Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had: We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.”

His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.

Then he had another dream, and he told it to his brothers. “Listen,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”

When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come and bow down to the ground before you?” His brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Need a picture, not a title.

Tempesta, #16; Tissot, #17; von Engerth, #20! Thanks, Dan.

[Red Badger]

It’s an operetta, written by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber when they were in college.

I have an original album. It was not as well known as the “Jesus Christ Superstar” collaboration, but has since gained popularity among small theater groups and even church productuctions, mainly because it is short and doesn’t take a lot of time to produce.

Have you ever heard it, or heard of it?...............

[Hebrews 11:6]

Good morning, Alba. You are most welcome.

[Red Badger]

Here's the original album cover from 1971:

[Hebrews 11:6]

Of it. Saw some images during my search but didn’t select any.

[Hebrews 11:6]

How orthodox is its theology?

[Red Badger]

It follows the storyline fairly closely, with some artistic license of course, Pharaoh is done in the voice of a ‘Elvis Presley” style for instance.

There is a ‘Greek Chorus’ that fills in the storyline in the background between scenes..................

Not a painting, but a statue was found in Egypt that scholars argue is a statue of Joseph..

Even has a multi color coat as part of the design.
I saw it on a children’s bible show infomercial called patterns of evidence..

I can’t post memes of pics or I would share..

But it is very compelling..

Great depictions here..

[Hebrews 11:6]

I would be happy to show you how to post pictures—takes less than five minutes. Really easy.

Good morning to you all, and Thank You Dan for another fine posting. Greatly enjoyed your section (above; as noted herein) it helps us appreciate how this came to be.

[Hebrews 11:6]

My daughter, the Tent-Peg Killer, LOL.

It's not the first time the Spirit has challenged me to take on a project for him--I could easily put proposing to my wife in that category (not to mention impregnating her later), among other ventures. But in each instance I've been thrilled to see how He then equips and supports me, Leon, as a husband, father and poster.

I have been given instructions before and it always ends up with it being a small dot or something..

I am testing posting a partial of the statue with this..

[Hebrews 11:6]

Right-click on your image, then click on “Copy Image Link” or whatever seems most similar, and just paste it here.

[delchiante]

That may be my problem.

I don’t have a mouse on the tablet so no right click is available.
Only simple copy.

But even when a link shows up, it appears to just be words or those little squares that should say picture should be here, but isn’t due to user error..

[Hebrews 11:6]

Oh, well....

Good Morning, Dan. :-)
