Shadow of the Son

Shadow of the Son | Genesis 37-50 | Manny Pereira

Jesus tells us that the Scriptures are supremely about Him (Luke 24:27). Even Genesis contains “but a shadow of the good things to come” (Hebrews 10:1). Is there more than a heroic character study in the story of Joseph? More than a model of morals? More still than a lesson on God’s sovereignty? Joesph is a special son whose situation, suffering, and service anticipate Christ in striking ways. The story of Joseph is not ultimately about Joseph. He and his remarkable history is but a marvelous shadow of the Son.
