Episode 127 - Foreshadowing

Hanukkah
Written By Matt Davis
 

Helping Christians make sense of their roots. Helping the Jewish community make sense of Jesus. Together, we are restoring the Jewishness of the gospel.

Joseph was thrown into a pit. Sold into slavery. Locked in prison. But God had a plan - a plan bigger than anyone could see. A plan that would save his people. 

Sound familiar?

Joseph isn’t just a historical figure - he’s a foreshadowing of the Messiah. 

From his betrayal by his own brothers to his rise to power in Egypt, every detail points to something greater. His story echoes through time - straight to the life, death, and resurrection of Yeshua.

But here’s the real question: Why didn’t his brothers recognize him? And why don’t so many Jewish people recognize Jesus today?

In this episode, we uncover the hidden layers in Joseph’s story and how they connect to Israel’s ultimate redemption. 

If you’ve ever wondered why the Jewishness of Jesus matters, this one’s for you.

Key Takeaways

  • Joseph & Jesus - The Parallels Are Uncanny. Betrayal, suffering, redemption - it’s all there.

  • Why Didn’t His Brothers Recognize Him? And what does that reveal about Israel today?

  • God’s Plan Was Bigger Than They Knew. What they meant for evil, God meant for good.

  • The Exodus is Coming. Not just in ancient Egypt - there’s another one on the horizon.
