And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.

10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?

11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.

Genesis 37:9-11

I don't know about you, but this is some heady stuff we're seeing right here. Joseph it seems is having some dreams. They're quite disruptive as these things go really in that they're disrupting, to borrow a word, reality. I'm not sure if from a point of view prophetically speaking, if he ought to be saying anything about them rather Considering the heavy penalties and all for being wrong in that type of thinking. Mainly, it's due to the influence of the Spirit world in the dreams, and the openness to both the Lord speaking and those of the demons. Though if you're knowing the Lord, really you ought to be knowing he'll already keep you. As the example of Jacob already shows, he became Israel after suddenly possessing a strength he'd never knew before without the Lord's crippling very much rather. This perspective, in case you haven't already guessed, is where whole people groups get much of their power. Egypt for instance, is known for Their worship of elders and the care in the afterlife rather. It's observed in the way the living prepare the way for the dead with pyramids and pyres and all sorts of tombs. Is it all sorts of messed up, but of course. Then too, there's the worship of the sun, moon, and stars, and all sort of beings. By no means am I telling you it's alright of a sorts, but rather it's important to see where these other people are getting their power. That's why Egypt hasn't ever been a ruling power since the times of the Pharaohs, because in large part they'd forgotten their powers of the kingdom. That's why this point of view will eventually run out but of course, being not infinite in nature but rather expires itself right after a time. I'm not saying Joseph knew this just yet but the Lord did and perhaps that's all that had mattered, his knowing the things of the kingdom and also the end from the beginning. The Lord it seems had a plan for saving the world and also the things of his people. For those who don't think you can do both of these as rightly in focus, are you sure it's not just your own stifled ways into being? Surely, it's going to run on back in connecting the fathers and as we're reading the text, we'll see that's just what had happened. Old daddy Jacob had seen this in motion. That little word observed has two possible meanings, with one of bowing and scraping each time you're passed in the hall and the other of knowing this for a surety that it has just happened. Joseph it seems was highly favored not for his many such dreams and also his notions. Rather I think deep down in his deepest of hearts and darkest of closets, he worshipped and feared God very much rather. It's this that gave him his knowledge and wisdom in the seeing of dreams. In this section, we seeing interpretation correctly. In essence, he goes to the seeing and tells them what's now to be happen. Indeed, he'd just seen the sun and moon in their orbits along with eleven stars besides them much rather run alongside in their continual orbits with much bowing and dipping unto towards Joseph the son. Though he's not actually correct in the application is he, much rather. In other words, there's a fault on the line and I'm not sure if it's Joseph or also his brother but only his father it seems has correctly made that connection. Perhaps it's just a test for his brothers, which also they failed, whomever knows, since these also felt some sort of way in the their thinking. They'd envied him then for sure besides just also the anger that followed. It's an awful bad thing when the powers have gotten all sorts of conceited. Joseph here, as with the Egyptians much later, has touched on the relative issue where the powers had gotten lost, disconnected altogether from their own Source in the matter. Without God then their focus and at their central, sort of a grand master symphony elder, these too would soon cease from their being together. At this time, none of his brother had this viewpoint in mind, save only Jacob which remembered the Father God above all. It's his place then, that Joseph had rightfully observed as one who might've been standing in way of his throne. A very appropriate thing for the Father to do then would've been to tell him to move.
