Kinnear st Sunday school. | visions in B ( religl Sunday School Lesson BY BEV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. JOSEPH, THE PRESERVER OF HIS PEOFLE Genesis, 30:22-24; 37:2-50:26. Giolden Text — Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long in the land which Jehovah thy God giveth thee—Exodus, 20:2, Joseph's personallty is the most popular of all ancient history. No finer biography can be found in any literature. In literary finish and dra- matic interest it is unexcelled. It narrates In simple, picturesque style the story of his remarkable career, so that it appeals with powerful interest to universal humanity. The secret of its attractiveness has been assigned by Matheson to the fact it has a good end and “that the brightness {s found to have been produced by the actual clouds of the narrative.” Joseph, in his interview with his breathren, when he revealed himself to them, In the premlier's palace, gives us the key that we ought to use in interpreting his marvelous career. Looking back over the perfod of triuls, he saw the hand of God mold- ing his life and fitting him through the mysteries of providence to be the preserver of his people. He recog- nized that the most trivial and the most important, and the most un- likely circumstances were made to minister to the development of God's purpose. Joseph’s unfaltering Ioyalty lessons he learned from his Jacob, and grandfather, Abra- am, ‘enabled him to make n clean record so that he became the pre- erver of his nation. He reaped as a ward of his fidelity to Jehovah and devotion to Him the honor of being selected in accordance with God's de- sire and plan as His instrument in savMig the children of Israel and pre- paring t m for their mission in the world. God has a program for every individual's life and He will make 11 things work together for their good and His glory, as He did in the use of Joseph, if they will commit the control of their lives in faith to His care and do His will. ‘ome see in the Wartless life of Joseph an excellent type of the Lord Jesus. Our first vision of a youth in the Bible ix the portrait of the beloved son of Jacob, who had falled to learn the lesson from his own ex- perien that partiality among chil- Iren family will develop di- discords. This is seen to the motherless child of old age of a coat of many oiors.” which indicated to the chil- Iren of his three other wives that their father had picked out Joseph to b his heir. The coat was not a patchwork of colors, but a long white tunic, Mhat extended to the ankles nd wrists nd as embroidered about the edge of the skirt and ves with a narrow strip of color. It was worn only by the leisure clas This. together with his reports their evil deeds, that he related to his father, not as a tattler, but in an ndeavor to preserve the family standards and ideals, had served to e the hatred that they held inst the young man. who evidently father's favorite son there is an evidence of possi- stism in the life of the youth, yet there is enough evidence of his ility and character to have war- ranted the father's partiallty. No matter upon what grounds Jacob may ve held it, nevertheless it is un- stified in any parent to be partial their children. Joseph was not ibitio or desirous for power. If were he would not have told his others concerning his dreams that foretold of his coming supremacy sver his father and brothers. The ning of the dreams of the inno- cent vouth was not then known to Joseph, Ithough his father and Lrethren evidently understood their significance. His brothers tried to make light of it by nicknaming him “The Dr mer.” 1In his gift of vision and foresight the germ of his com- ing greatness was made known. It is the dreamer whose Initiative and vision has in every field made him | the pioneer in the world's progress. amily hatred resulted In Joseph being =old into slavery. It was only the intervention of Reuben that kept the brothers from slaying him when Jie came on a mission from the father 1o inquire concerning their welfare. Nearly a quarter of a century later they recalled how they had seen the anguish of his soul when they re- fused to heed his cries for mercy while they were eating. During their absence caring for the flocks Ram- say points out, the lad's crying in the pit attracted the attention of Midianite merchants, who rescued him, carried him to Egypt and sold hi. as a slave to Potiphar. Joseph met the change in_condi- | s with the right spirit. He did| find fault, claiming that he had nothing to merit such punish- He tried under every circum- e to practice the principles of on that his father and grand- father had taught him. This resulted in his rapid rfse to power in the home of Potpihar and brought him face to face with a temptation that revealed his chastity. He was tempt- ed in a most subtle and intense way that would have caused others to have fallen, but Joseph remembered his duty to God and his master as well as his mistress. He exhibited an unusual type of chivalry when he protected the woman against herself. He was imprisoned, not for vielding to temptation, but for refusing the peculiar temptation that promised pleasure, prestige and power such as he dreamed would be his as a lad. He endured the sufferings in the “hole” in silence, refusing to in- criminate the guilty person or even to protect himself from the false charge.
