Day 4

Which feels like Day 3, since I got off track. Sigh.

Wondering if there were daughters and just not recorded, which is odd, since Judaism is matrilineal.

Oh, the Jacob/brothers mindgames!

I would think that Joseph, being NOT THE OLDEST himself, would be ok with bucking the primogeniture system. But nooooo.

I have the sense that the story of Joseph is only going to be the first example of God making lemonade out of lemons and bringing forth excellence from bad choices and tragedy. Must Remember. God is good. All the time. And he makes things like this so.

WOOT! One book down!

So I started Exodus--and how is it that they do not know Joseph anymore when he was second only the Pharaoh?
