It has been said of the Old and New Testaments:
The New is in the Old contained -
The Old is in the New explained
The New is in the Old concealed –
The Old is in the New revealed.
TYPOLOGY
OLD
TESTAMENT
NEW
TESTAMENT
The Old Testament (Covenant) contains shadows – the New Testament has the realities:
Heb 10:1 The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves.
Col 3:16-17 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.
Today we continue to look at the life of Joseph and how he was a type of the Lord Jesus.
SHADOWS
Last time we looked at Joseph and how he foreshadowed Jesus. We saw that:
Both had miraculous births
Both were shepherds
Both were much loved by their father
Both were envied by their brothers
Both exposed evil
Both spoke of their coming glory
Both were rejected by their brothers
Both were concerned about their brother’s welfare
Both were sent by their father
JESUS & JOSEPH
Both had brothers who weren’t where they should be
Both searched for their brothers
Both were treated badly by their brothers
Both were stripped of their coats
Both were “thrown into a pit”
Both were sold to the Gentiles
Both were sold by Judah (Judas)
Both were sold for the price of a slave
Both had brothers who were hypocritical
Both had their blood presented to their father
JESUS & JOSEPH
Both were brought to Egypt while young
Both became servants
Both were tempted to sin
Both overcame temptation
Both were falsely accused
Both were condemned with 2 criminals
The criminals had 2 different and opposite fates
Both asked someone to “remember” them
JESUS & JOSEPH
Both exchanged their “prison clothes” for “fine clothes”
Both were humbled
Both were subsequently exalted
Both became rulers
Both were “saviours”
Both had brothers who would eventually bow to them
But amazingly there are still more analogies between Jesus and Joseph.
JESUS & JOSEPH
Joseph was 30 years old when he came to greatness and received power to rule.
Gen 41:46 Joseph was
thirty years old when
he entered the
service of Pharaoh
king of Egypt…
30 YEARS OLD
Luke 3:23 Now Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry…
Joseph was filled with the Spirit of God (Gen 41:38).
FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT
Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God?
Jesus was filled with the Spirit of God (Luke 4:18).
The Spirit of the Lord is on me,
because he has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
Joseph suffered first at the hands of his brothers (thrown into a pit and sold as slave), then at the hands of the Gentiles (the Egyptians enslaved him, then imprisoned him).
JEWS & GENTILES
Jesus was handed over by his brothers (the Jews) to be crucified and suffer at the hands of the Gentiles (Romans).
JEWS & GENTILES
But ultimately the sinner pays the greatest penalty. Eventually the sin of Joseph’s brothers hurt them even more than it did Joseph. They had a famine, were falsely accused in
Egypt and then
had their sin
exposed to
their father.
Num 32:23
… and you
may be
sure that
your sin
will find
you out.
THE SINNER’S PENALTY
The Jews also suffered because of their sin against Jesus.
Matt 27:24-25 When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was
starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd.
I am innocent of this man’s blood. It is your responsibility!
Let his blood be on us and on our children!
This was fulfilled less than four decades later when Jerusalem was destroyed by the Roman armies of Titus, as predicted by Jesus.
Luke 23:27-30 A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned
and wailed for him. Jesus
turned and said to them,
“Daughters of Jerusalem, do
not weep for me; weep for
yourselves and for your
children. For the time will come
when you will say, “Blessed are
the barren women, the wombs
that never bore and the
breasts that never nursed!”
Then they will say to the
mountains, “Fall on us!” and to
the hills, “Cover us!”’
Joseph cared for his fellow prisoners. We read that Pharaoh put his two officials “… in custody in the house of
the captain of
the guard, in the
same prison
where Joseph
was confined.
The captain of
the guard
assigned them
to Joseph, and
he attended
them” (Gen
40:2-4).
CARED FOR FELLOW PRISONERS
Jesus cared for his fellow prisoners.
Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.
Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.
Joseph fed his brothers and their families when they were experiencing a famine.
Gen 42:25 Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, to put each man's silver back in his sack, and to give them provisions for their journey.
PROVISION FOR BROTHERS
Jesus is the bread of life (John 6:35), gives us living water (John 4:10), and he feeds us spiritually.
I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
Joseph made provision for his brothers while they were in a strange land.
STRANGE LAND
Gen 42:25 Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, to put each man’s silver back in his sack, and to give them provisions for their journey.
Jesus has made provision for us while we are strangers in a foreign land.
We are strangers in this world:
Heb 11:13b And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth.
Through Jesus, God supplies our needs:
Phil 4:19 And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. (NASB)
STRANGE LAND
Joseph had unlimited resources to meet the need of all the people:
Gen 41:49
Joseph stored
up huge
quantities of
grain, like the
sand of the sea;
it was so much
that he stopped
keeping records
because it was
beyond
measure.
UNLIMITED RESOURCES
Jesus has unlimited resources to meet our needs:
Eph 3:8 … to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of
Christ…
UNLIMITED RESOURCES
Joseph tested people to reveal their true nature. He had his golden cup planted in Benjamin’s sack (Gen 44) to see how his brothers would react when Benjamin was falsely accused. The
brothers showed
that they had
changed when
Judah jumped
to Benjamin’s
defence and
offered to
take his
punishment – this
out of concern
for his father.
TESTED PEOPLE
By his response, Judah (who years ago had been the one to suggest that Joseph be sold as a slave) demonstrates true repentance (a changed life).
Your servant guaranteed the boy’s safety to my father… Now then, please let your servant remain here as my lord’s slave in place of the boy, and let the boy return with his brothers. How can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? No! Do not let me see the misery that would come upon my father.
Jesus also tested people to reveal their true nature.
John 6:5-6 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was
going
to do.
Eight months’ wages would not buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!
Jesus also tested his enemies to reveal their true nature.
I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or of human origin? Tell me! (Mark 11:29-30)
The chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders refrain from answering, because they are afraid of losing favour with the people, who held that John was a prophet.
… on the vine were 3 branches… I took the grapes, squeezed them into Pharaoh’s cup and put the cup in his hand. (Gen 40:10-11)
In prison, the chief butler related his dream to Joseph.
Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your position, and you will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand…
Joseph interpreted the chief butler’s dream showing that he would be restored to his former position in 3 days.
RAISED IN 3 DAYS
Jesus went to go to the grave and was raised after 3 days and then restored to his former glory (Luke 24:21,26).
Did not the Christ have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?
And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.
Joseph was not initially recognized by his own brothers.
NOT RECOGNIZED
Gen 42:8
Although
Joseph
recognized
his
brothers,
they did
not
recognize
him.
Jesus was not initially recognized by his own brothers – the Jews (John 19:15).
REJECTED BY BROTHERS
John 1:11 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.
We have no king but Caesar.
Shall I crucify your king?
But Joseph was eventually recognized by his brothers (Gen 45:4).
RECOGNITION
I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt!
Jesus will eventually be recognized by his own brothers.
Zech 12:10 And I will pour out on… the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child…
RECOGNITION
Joseph lived under God’s blessing:
The LORD was with Joseph and he prospered (Gen 39:2).
Note that
this was while
Joseph was
still a slave.
So he was
blessed even
in adversity.
BLESSED BY GOD
And when the adversity increases, Joseph remains blessed:
Gen 39:20-23 Joseph’s master took him and put him in prison… But… the LORD was with him; he showed him kindness and granted him favour in the eyes of the prison warden. So the warden put Joseph in charge of
all those held in the
prison, and he was
made responsible
for all that was
done there… the
LORD was with
Joseph and gave
him success in
whatever he did.
BLESSED IN ADVERSITY
Jesus lived under God’s blessing:
Luke 2:52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
Jesus was still blessed and not abandoned by God even in his ultimate adversity - death:
Acts 2:23-33 “… this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it. For David says concerning him, ‘… For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One see corruption.’
… he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God…
BLESSED IN ADVERSITY
So too in the face of trial and adversity, we
remember that we still have God’s favour:
2 Cor 4:7-12 But we have this treasure
in jars of clay to show that this all-
surpassing power is from God and not
from us. We are hard pressed on
every side, but not crushed; perplexed,
but not in despair; persecuted, but
not abandoned; struck down, but not
destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
BLESSED IN ADVERSITY
2 Cor 4:13-18 It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.” With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak, because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in his presence. All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
BLESSED IN ADVERSITY
Those who associated with Joseph were also blessed by God:
Gen 39:5 From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the LORD blessed the household of
the Egyptian
because of
Joseph. The
blessing of the
LORD was on
everything
Potiphar had,
both in the
house and in
the field.
OTHERS BLESSED BY GOD
Those who associated with Jesus are also blessed by God with spiritual blessings:
Eph 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.
John 1:16 From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another.
Gal 3:13-14 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.
OTHERS BLESSED BY GOD
God delivered Joseph when he was unfairly treated:
Acts 7:9-10 Because the patriarchs were jealous of Joseph, they sold him as a slave into Egypt. But God was with him
and rescued
him from all
his troubles.
RESCUED BY GOD
God delivered Jesus when he was unfairly treated:
Acts 2:36 “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”
God gave Joseph
wisdom:
Acts 7:10 He
(God) gave
Joseph wisdom
and enabled
him to gain
the goodwill of
Pharaoh…
Jesus has all
wisdom:
Col 2:2-3 … the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
WISDOM
Joseph is humble and attributes his gifting to God (Gen 41:15-16).
I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.
I cannot do it, but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.
HUMBLE
Joseph remained humble and unspoiled by wealth. All of the power given to him was used only for good. He attributed his success to God’s providence (Gen 45:8).
HUMBLE IN GREATNESS
So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.
Jesus too was a humble king (John 13:14).
Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.
Joseph wept over his brothers.
Gen 45:14-15 Then he threw his arms around his
WEPT OVER BROTHERS
brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin embraced him, weeping. And he kissed all his brothers and wept over them…
Jesus also wept over his brothers:
Luke 19:41-42 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it
If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.
GOOD FOR EVIL
Joseph returned good for evil. He returns the money his brothers used to buy grain. When Jacob dies, Joseph tells them: “So
then, don’t
be afraid. I
will provide
for you and
your
children.”
And he
reassured
them and
spoke kindly
to them.
(Gen 50:
20-21)
Jesus also returned good for evil.
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.
Joseph forgave his brothers for their sins against him.
FORGIVENESS
Jesus forgave his brothers their sins against him as well.
Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing. (Luke 23:34)
You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
Joseph’s brothers intended evil when they sold him into slavery, but God used it for good.
GOOD FROM EVIL
God used the terrible event of Jesus being crucified to bring about the greatest good – our salvation.
God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.
(Acts 2:36)
Joseph is seen as the Revealer of secrets (Gen 41:15)
I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.
Jesus Christ reveals secrets. After Jesus appeared to him on Patmos, John writes in Revelation 1:1:
REVEALER OF SECRETS
The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place.
Joseph is portrayed as a counsellor who advises Pharaoh:
Gen 41:38-39 So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God?” Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you.”
Jesus is called the “Wonderful Counsellor” (Isa 9:6) and is known as the one “in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.”
Col 2:2-3 … so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
WONDERFUL COUSELLOR
Joseph was eventually reunited with his father.
Gen 46:29 Joseph had his chariot made ready and went to Goshen to meet his father Israel. As soon as Joseph
appeared
before him,
he threw his
arms around
his father
and wept
for a long
time.
REUNITED WITH FATHER
Go instead to my brothers and tell them, “I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.”
Jesus was reunited with his father (John 20:17)
Joseph became royalty (Gen 45:8).
ROYALTY
So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.
Jesus has been exalted to be the “king of kings”:
Rev 19:16
On his
robe and
on his thigh he has this name written: king of kings and lord of lords.
Joseph interceded for his brothers before Pharaoh.
I will go up and speak to Pharaoh and will say to him, 'My brothers and my father's household, who were living in the land of Canaan, have come to me.’ (Gen 46:31)
INTERCESSION
Jesus also intercedes on our behalf to his Father.
Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus… is
at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
Joseph
received a new
name from
Pharaoh:
Gen 41:45
Pharaoh
gave Joseph
the name
Zaphenath-
Paneah…
God gave Jesus
a new name:
Phil 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name…
A NEW NAME
Joseph warned of a coming danger, and urged his hearers to make provision to meet it (Gen 41:30-36).
COMING DANGER
This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the country may not be ruined by the famine.
Jesus Christ warned us to prepare for the coming judgement (Luke 13:3).
But unless you repent, you too will all perish.
Pharaoh had two disturbing dreams in the same night (Gen 41).
PHARAOH’S DREAMS
Gen 41:8 In the morning his mind was troubled, so he sent for all the magicians and wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could interpret them for him.
Then the chief cupbearer remembered Joseph and tells Pharaoh how he
had interpreted
his and the
chief baker’s
dreams.
Now a young Hebrew was there with us… We told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us…
(Gen 41:12-13)
Joseph was brought to Pharaoh to interpret the dreams.
In Pharaoh’s first dream there were 7 fat cows and 7 thin cows. The thin cows ate up the fat cows.
In his second dream there were 7 fat ears of corn that were eaten up by the skinny ears of corn.
Joseph interpreted this to mean that there would be 7 years of plenty and then 7 years of famine in the land.
7 YEARS
Jesus predicted a tribulation on the earth in the last days.
Matt 24:21 (NASB) “For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will.”
We know
from the
book of
Revelation
and Daniel
9:27 that
this is a
period of
7 years.
The 7 years famine are a type of the future Tribulation coming to the whole earth.
Joseph was given a Gentile bride by Pharaoh.
Gen 41:45 Pharaoh gave Joseph… Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, to be his wife.
GENTILE BRIDE
The church is the bride of Christ.
2 Cor 11:2 … I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him.
Jesus will be coming back for his bride in the Rapture. And since as in large the Jewish
nation still has not accepted
Jesus as Messiah - just as
Joseph took a Gentile bride,
the bride Jesus comes back
for will consist mainly of
Gentiles.
Rom 11:25 … Israel
has experienced a
hardening in part
until the full
number of the
Gentiles has come in…
Joseph waited in prison for two years (Gen 41:1) before he was released to power and got his bride.
WAITING FOR A BRIDE
Jesus waits in heaven for 2 millennia before he comes in power and glory to receive his bride.
Rev 19:7 Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.
2 Pet 3:8-10 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief…
WAITING FOR A BRIDE
Interestingly Joseph received his Gentile bride just before the first set of 7 years began on earth.
BRIDE BEFORE 7 YEARS
The Pre-tribulation Rapture view holds that Jesus will also receive his Gentile bride, the church, just before the 7 year tribulation begins.
PRETRIBU-LATION RAPTURE
Jacob accepted Joseph’s Gentile sons as his own.
Gen 48:3-5
Jacob said to
Joseph, “Now
then, your two
sons born to you
in Egypt before
I came to you
here will be
reckoned as
mine; Ephraim
and Manasseh
will be mine, just
as Reuben and
Simeon are mine.”
GENTILE SONS ACCEPTED
“Jacob Blessing Ephraim and Manasseh” by Benjamin West
Likewise God accepts the Gentile “sons” in the church of Jesus as heirs:
Eph 3:6 This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members
together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
Rom 15:15-16… because of the grace God gave me to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles with the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
GENTILE SONS ACCEPTED
As Gentiles, we have been accepted by God as his sons.
Eph 2:11-19 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth … remember that at that time you were separate from Christ… Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household…
In faith that one day God would take the Israelites back to the promised land, Joseph made his brothers vow to take his bones to Canaan. (Gen 50:24-25)
THE PROMISED LAND
Gen 50:24-25 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die. But God will surely come to your aid and take you up out of this land to the land he promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” And Joseph made the sons of Israel swear an oath and said, “God will surely come to your aid, and then you must carry my bones up from this place.”
Heb 11:22 By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions about his bones.
THE PROMISED LAND
The resurrected Jesus went alive to our promised land and in faith we believe his promise to take us there.
My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. (John 14:2-3)
Joseph warns his brothers against quarrelling as they travel to and from Egypt:
Gen 45:24 Then he sent his
brothers away, and as they
were leaving he said to
them, “Don’t quarrel
on the way!”
The Bible warns us against quarrelling on our ‘journey’:
Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless
2 Tim 2:23-25 Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. And the Lord’s servant must not quarrel; instead, he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Those who oppose him he must gently instruct, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth…
NO QUARRELLING
Joseph was believed to be dead (Gen 37:33).
BELIEVED DEAD
It is my son’s robe! Some ferocious animal has devoured him. Joseph has surely been torn to pieces.
Believed to be dead, Joseph was actually alive (Gen 45:25).
Joseph is still alive! In fact, he is ruler of all Egypt.
Jesus was also believed to be dead (Luke 24:19-21).
Jesus of Nazareth… was a prophet, powerful in word and deed… The chief priests and our rulers … crucified him; but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel.
Though believed dead, Jesus was alive (Luke 24:30-32).
There came a day when Joseph’s brothers had to bow to him.
BOW DOWN
Joseph’s brothers were angry when he foretold that one day they would have to bow down to him. Some wanted to kill him and others thought that by selling him into slavery they had thwarted any fulfilment of his dreams forever.
But there came a day when they had to bow the knee to Joseph as the ruler in Egypt, who was the only one who could supply their desperate need during the famine.
Today there are those who refuse to acknowledge Jesus as Lord of their life. They try to silence his voice and scoff at the thought of being subservient to him. But whether they choose to serve him in this life or not, the day will come when they will have to bow before him and confess him as Lord.
BOW THE KNEE
Even those who reject Jesus now, will ultimately have to bow the knee to him.
Phil 2:10-11 … that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
HE IS LORD, HE IS LORD
HE HAS RISEN FROM THE DEAD
AND HE IS LORD
EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW
EVERY TONGUE CONFESS
THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD
