BIY - Genesis 36-38

Yes I am still here. Been a busy few weeks and a busy couple more to go but I am trying to get back to a regular reading schedule. On a side note I just returned from serving as an Adult Table Leader on a Chrysalis walk. Got to spend a long weekend with some great men and youth of God and saw some great things happening the lives of some young men.

On with the show:

Quick Thoughts:
1. I am so glad I got to read the lineage of Esau. Probably will come in handy sometime later. :)
2.Silly Question where was Reuben when Joseph was sold to the Israelites?
3. Music Break: Jacob's Name is Israel - Apologetix
4. If Joseph was Jacob's favorite why did he rebuke him?
5. Time for the biblical family tree. I missed who Judah is.
6. All kinds of skeletons in the closet revealed in Chapter 38.

Detailed Thoughts:

1. Okay yes I can be sarcastic at
times...Get over it!

2. Where did Reuben go? Back to find Jacob? I will be interested to finish the Jacob story and see if more is revealed about where Reuben may have gone.

3. If you haven't heard Apologetix you need to go to their website and check them out. They are the Weird Al of Christian music and they are excellent musicians.

4. Interesting that Jacob basically sent Joseph right in to the Lion's Den so to speak. One would think he would know that the other boys despised him and yet he sends him out to them anyway.

5. I will have to go back and see where Judah fits into the family tree. I don't remember who he is.

6. Who says the bible is without scandal? I guess prostitution is a really old profession.
