Joseph's brothers tricked His father about Coat Genesis 37

·        When the brothers got back home, they told their father that Joseph had been  killed by a wild animal.

·        They showed him Joseph's coat, which they had covered with goat's blood.

·        Jacob wept and tore his clothes.

·        His sons tried to comfort him.

·        However, Jacob would never stop crying for his beloved Joseph.

                                                             The Baker's Dream Genesis 40:16-22

·        Another prisoner dreamed he had three baskets of bread that he had baked for the king.

·        In his dream the birds kept eating up all the bread.

·        Joseph did not have very good news about this dream.

·        He said that in  three days you will die. Joseph told the truth.

·        The most important dream Joseph would hear about was just ahead.

                                                            The  King's dream Genesis 41:1-36

·        One night the king of Egypt dreamed that seven skinny cows came from the river and ate up seven fat cows.

·        No one could figure out what the dream meant.

·        ''Call for Joseph,'' said the first man who had told Joseph his dream in the prison.

·        They did, and God showed Joseph what the king's dream meant.

·        There would be seven years with lots of food.

·        Then there would be seven years with almost no food.
