創世記 Genesis Lesson 14 (4/21)

讀經：創世記第四十至第四十三章

1. 你認為酒政忘了向約瑟施恩，使他在監牢裡又多待了兩年，是偶然的還是神的掌管？ 為甚麼？
2. 約瑟如何解釋法老的兩個夢？法老又如何地反應？約瑟給他兩個兒子取甚麼名字？它們的意思是甚麼？
3. 約瑟見法老的時候是幾歲？當他再見到哥哥們時大約是幾歲？從神給約瑟的兩個夢到夢的實現，相隔了大約幾年？我們可以從這裡學到甚麼功課？
4. 雅各一開始不肯讓便雅憫去埃及，後來他有沒有放手，將這件事交在神的手中？還記得雅各的意思是甚麼？從這裡我們看到他的生命有甚麼改變？

1. Do you think it was a coincidence or the hand of God when the cupbearer forgot about Joseph, resulting in his staying in prison for 2 more years?
2. What interpretations did Joseph give to Pharaoh of his two dreams? How did Pharaoh respond? What did Joseph name his two sons? What are the meanings of those names?
3. How old was Joseph when he saw Pharaoh? About how old was he when he saw his brothers again? How many years separated Joseph's two dreams and the fulfillment of them? What can we learn from this?
4. Although at first Jacob was not willing to let Benjamin go to Egypt, did he eventually let go and give it into God's hands? Recall the meaning of Jacob's name. What change do we observe in his life?
