14. “And Joseph returned into Egypt.
he and his brethren and all that went up
with him to bury his father, after he had
buried his father." For it years did Ja-
cob enjoy Joseph’s presence and care in
age of 147, having first blessed all his soul
and charged them to bury him besldl Leah
in the cave of Machpelah, where Alifiiham
and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekah, had already
been laid. When Jacob was dying, he,
with confidence in the promises oi God,
blessed the sons of Joseph and assured
Joseph that God would bring them all out
of Egyptiileb. xi, 21; Gen. xivill. 21).
15. “And when Joseph's brethren saw
that their father was dead they said, Jo-
seph will persdveutura hate on and will
certainly requito us all the evil which we
did unto him.” That looks like a very
mean estimate of their brother, who had
so freely and fully forgiven them and had
so abundantly cared for them for so many
years. One cannot read chapter Xiv, i-ifi,
without seeing that it Was pureunbellef
and actually made Joseph a’linr. But it
is just the way that many Christians treat
the Lord. They cannot believe that lie
has nothing against them and that He will
never mention theirsins, and so they make
Him a liar (I,John v, 10). .
.16. “And they sent a messenger unto
Joseph, saying, ’i‘hy father did command
before he died, saying.” A nioaauuger'a
only rcsmnslhiilty is to rrcciveuud deliver
his message correctly and promptly. ling

highest. honor a mortal can here enjoy.
But this messenger was in poor employ
and on a very pom errand,
17. “80 shall ye say unto Joseph, For»
give, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy ‘
brethren and their sin,” This was no
new aln they were asking forgiveness for,
but the old wrong of H7 years before which
had been fully forgiven for over 17 years.
We have norecord that Jacob ever told his
sons thus to appeal to Joseph. if he did.
he was as bad as they. Yet there are
Christians who, being assured of forgive—
ness (Eph. i. 7; [John ii, i2). are all the
time asking forgiveness for the seine old
sins. No WQndorJoaeph wept. ltis enough

Behold, we be thy servants.” It was in
fear they came. inasslna for that which had
long ago ham given them. This is not the
kind of servant Jesus expects to find in .
those who have been made high by His
precious blood (Eph. i, iii). Not serving
to obtain forgiveness, but serving immune
forgiven, is the right way. Serva the Lord
with glmlilflili.
19. “And Joseph said unto tlwm, Fear.
not, for coil in the place of God?" it was 1
against Hod they had sinned, and from i
llim firsttbey should have sought forgive l

“Against. thee, thi-conly, have i sinned and
done this evil in thy sight (l’s. ii, 4]. We
must seek forgiveness from God. for all?
sin is against illm (l Cor. viii. 12), and!
than from those against whom We have;

20. “But (5 for you, ye thought evil ‘
against me, but God invent it unto good ;
to bring it to pass, as it is this day, to save
much people alive." in almost the very i
