I don't think you are giving him too much of the benefit of the doubt at all...I think we would all be better to think like you are that he was realizing more about life! God was working in His life and that gives all of us hope!

In particular, Judah caught my attention. In Genesis 43:9, when Judah says, "I personally guarantee his safety," I thought of the fact that Jesus is from the lineage of Judah and Jesus personally guarantees our safety when we accept Him as our Savior. <br /><br />And again in Genesis 44:18-34, Judah pleads with Joseph to keep him as a substitute for Benjamin. Even though Judah had allowed his father, Jacob to believe the lie about Joseph for all those years, he cannot stand the idea of watching the anguish it would cause his father should he lose Benjamin. Maybe Judah had a second chance to do the right thing this time and he wanted to do it? <br /><br />What do the rest of my Bible Reading sisters think about this?<br />Am I giving Judah to much of the benefit of the doubt?Frankienoreply@blogger.com
