(Bless YHVH the blessed One; Blessed is YHVH, the
blessed One for all eternity. Blessed are you, YHVH, our Elohim, King of the
Universe, you have selected us from among all the peoples, and have given us
your Torah.)
Psa 119:29 Remove from me the way of falsehood, And
favour me with Your Torah.
Psa 119:34 Make(cause) me understand, that I might
observe(preserve) Your Torah, And guard it with all my heart.
What does Miketz
mean? It is usually translated ''at the end'' or even ''in the last days''.
In Hebrew thought, however, miketz
can mean either "at the end" or "at the beginning" -- or
both - in Hebrew thought, every ending is a
new beginning, and every beginning is an
ending to that which went before.
The story of Yosef
is the longest continuous narrative in the Torah – Is it about Yahshua’s first
and second coming? In His first coming He proclaims the ‘’acceptable year of
YHVH’’ (Yesh 61) in His second coming He brings judgment and an end to this age
and gives the bread of life to all whom he has chosen - Rev
12:5 And she bore a male child [a] who was to shepherd all nations with a rod
of iron. Psa_2:9 And her child was caught away to Elohim and to His
throne. Footnote: aSee also Isa_26:17, Isa_66:7, Mic_4:9-10.
The Tabernacle and
its accompanying sacrifices are the most taught about subject in the Torah.
Gen 41:38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Could we
find another like him, a man in whom is the Spirit of Elohim?”
Vs 38,39 - Isa
11:2 The Spirit of יהוה
shall rest upon Him – the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of
counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of יהוה,
Isa 11:3 and
shall make(cause) Him breathe in the fear of יהוה.
And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of
His ears.
Lit
– his scent (harihacho - 7306) is the
fear of YHVH. The word “breathe” is not used in the text. However the prophet
seems to suggest that the evidence we have been in the presence of the Messiah
is that we “breathe” in the scent or fragrance of the fear of YHVH. How many
today can witness to this?
2Co
2:15 Because we are to Elohim the
fragrance of Messiah among those who are being saved and among those who are
perishing. 2Co 2:16 To the one we are
the smell of death to death, and to the other the fragrance of life to life.
And who is competent for these?
Hebrew
word for “fear” can mean both ''terror'' or ''reverence''.
Gen 41:39 Then Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “Since Elohim
has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you. Gen
41:40 “Be over my house, you yourself,
and at your mouth all my people shall kiss – only in the throne I am greater
than you.”
“upon your mouth he
will kiss all my people”
Psa 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest He be enraged, And you
perish in the way, For soon His wrath is to be kindled. Blessed are all those
taking refuge in Him. (kissing speaks of intimacy and covenant -Num 12:8 “I speak with him mouth to
mouth, and plainly, and not in riddles. And he sees the form of יהוה. So why were you not afraid to speak against My servant
Mosheh?”)
Gen 41:41 And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “See, I have set
you over all the land of Mitsrayim.” Gen 41:42
And Pharaoh took his seal-ring off his hand and put it on Yosĕph’s hand.
And he dressed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his
neck.
Gen 41:43 And he had him ride in the second chariot
which he had. And they cried out before him, “Bow the knee!” And he set him
over all the land of Mitsrayim. Gen 41:44
And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “I am Pharaoh, and without a word
from you let no man lift his hand or foot in all the land of Mitsrayim.”
Vs 44 adds
“word” in the translation. The Hebrew word “uvileadeicha” means “apart from
you” – Pharoah is stating that because Yosef exists people can exist also.1Co
8:6 for us there is one Elohim,1
the Father, from whom all came and for whom we live, and one Master יהושע Messiah, through whom all came and through whom we live.
(Apart from Yahshua we cannot exist)
Gen 41:45 And Pharaoh called Yosĕph’s name Zaphnath-Paʽnĕaḥ. And he gave him as a
wife Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On. And Yosĕph went
out over all the land of Mitsrayim.
Joh
6:48 “I am the bread of life. Joh 6:51 “I am the living bread which came down
out of the heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever.
Another
“Bread man of Life” – came from Beit – Lechem
ie ‘’house of Bread’’- Yahshua.
One
of the biggest miracles He did was feeding the masses – Mt 14 and 15 first He
feeds 5000 men besides woman and children – then 4000 men besides woman and
children = approx 40 000 people or even more.
Vs 45 – Strongs 6847 BDB - Zaphnath-paaneah = “treasury of the esteemed rest” According to Rashi the name means “revealer of hidden things”. Asenath – “Modern scholarship says her name derives from the Egyptian "she who belongs to (the goddess) Neith", and that her name may be phonetically transliterated from Egyptian hieroglyphs”
Neith - Neith was a goddess of war and of hunting and had as her symbol, two arrows crossed over a shield. As a deity, Neith is normally shown carrying the was scepter (symbol of rule and power) and the ankh (symbol of life).
An “ankh” is a cross with a loop – see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neith
Gen 41:46
Now Yosĕph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh
sovereign of Mitsrayim. And Yosĕph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and
went throughout all the land of Mitsrayim.
Luk 3:23 And when יהושע Himself began, He was about thirty years of age, being, as reckoned by law, son of Yosěph, of Ěli,
Mat
2:15 and (Yahshua)remained there until the death of Herodes, to fill what was
spoken by יהוה through
the prophet, saying, “Out of Mitsrayim I have called My Son.”1
Footnote:1Ex. 4:22-23, Hos. 11:1, Rev. 21:7
Gen 41:47
And in the seven years of plenty the ground brought forth generously. Gen
41:48 And he gathered all the food of
the seven years which were in the land of Mitsrayim, and laid up the food in
the cities. He laid up in every city the food of the fields which surrounded
them. Gen 41:49 Thus Yosĕph gathered
very much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he ceased counting, for it was
without number.
Maybe this
is a prophetic sign that in the last days Africa (Mitzrayim) will become the
bread basket of the world again.
