Church Notes. Ans. to Ques. 1. His own brothers. 2. Jealosy and envy, selfish ambition. (This is a type of the selling of Jesus for thirty pieces of silver and of His being sentenced to die because of the jealousy and selfish ambition of his own countrymen, the pharasees and preists.) 3. The famine in canaan and the destitute condition of Josephs bro thers was the cause of their meeting again. 4. Joseph received them kindly and was governed by his great compas sion and sympathy for them in their trouble rather than by any ill will or resentment as a result of the way they had treated him. 5. Yes, He saved them from the famine and gave them a place to live in Egypt. (This is type of the second coming of Christ, when the Jews who will receive him, will be delivered from their enemies). 6. A lesson of Godly forgiveness and brotherly kindness. A lesson in sympathizing with those who treat us as an enemy and showing that sympathy by treating them kindly. Rom. 12:21.
