VIII. MAIN BODY:
Genesis 43:16 (Amplified Bible)
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, Bring the men into the house and kill an animal and make ready, for the men will dine with me at noon.
Genesis 43:16 (King James Version)
And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring these men home, and slay, and make ready; for these men shall dine with me at noon.
A. Governor Joseph saw Benjamin instructing the steward of his house
"And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house,"
Joseph or "yoseph" in Hebrew meaning: let him add.
Benjamin or "binyamiyn" in Hebrew meaning: son of my right hand.
The ALEPH-TAV Signature of the LORD JESUS CHRIST was placed after the word "saw" giving the word "saw" a new meaning, taking it from the Hebrew word "raah" meaning: to see, advise self, appear, approve, behold, certainly, consider, discern, have experience, gaze, take heed, perceive, present, provide, regard. Our eyes must be focus on the LORD JESUS when we see or saw. Our eyes must be fixed on the LORD JESUS.
Hebrews 12:2 (New International Version)
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Titus 2:13 (Amplified Bible)
Awaiting and looking for the [fulfillment, the realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One),
Philippians 3:20 (Amplified Bible)
But we are citizens of the state (commonwealth, homeland) which is in heaven, and from it also we earnestly and patiently await [the coming of] the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) [as] Savior,
Our eyes must be use to glorify GOD, and our LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Before we use it to "lust" for other things now our joy and delight is JESUS.
1 John 2:16 (Amplified Bible)
For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things]—these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].
Psalms 37:4 (Amplified Bible)
Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart.
You see Joseph is an answered prayer, Jacob prayed for another son, and GOD gave him two sons, in the persons of Manasseh and Ephraim. That's why Joseph became Jacob's favorite, as his right hand, while Benjamin his younger brother became like the son of Joseph. Benjamin today symbolizes us, the Gentiles as Benjamites, we are considered the adopted sons (grafted branches) of GOD, (the Jews as natural branches (natural sons) because JESUS came from the Jews), we became the son of the right hand when we accepted JESUS.
Genesis 30:24 (Amplified Bible)
And she called his name Joseph [may he add] and said, May the Lord add to me another son.
Genesis 48:5-6 (Amplified Bible)
And now your two sons, [Ephraim and Manasseh], who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine. [I am adopting them, and now] as Reuben and Simeon, [they] shall be mine.
But other sons who may be born after them shall be your own; and they shall be called after the names of these [two] brothers and reckoned as belonging to them [when they come] into their inheritance.
John 1:12 (Amplified Bible)
But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name—
Romans 11:18-21 (Amplified Bible)
Do not boast over the branches and pride yourself at their expense. If you do boast and feel superior, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root [that supports] you.
You will say then, Branches were broken (pruned) off so that I might be grafted in!
That is true. But they were broken (pruned) off because of their unbelief (their lack of real faith), and you are established through faith [because you do believe]. So do not become proud and conceited, but rather stand in awe and be reverently afraid.
For if God did not spare the natural branches [because of unbelief], neither will He spare you [if you are guilty of the same offense].
B. His brothers will go into his house to eat and dine with him
"Bring the men into the house and kill an animal and make ready, for the men will dine with me at noon."
Brothers of Joseph or the men got access to the palace, food and drink of Joseph, because of Benjamin. All the anger and sadness in Joseph's heart became all love when he saw his younger brother, Benjamin. Instead of punishing his brothers, Joseph gave his brothers access to his palace, and gave them his food and his drink, fitted for a king, to dine with him.
Joseph symbolizes the LORD JESUS CHRIST here in this scenario and Benjamin symbolizes us, the Gentiles, when we are given the chance to eat and drink with Him.
Matthew 22:2-10 (Amplified Bible)
The kingdom of heaven is like a king who gave a wedding banquet for his son
And sent his servants to summon those who had been invited to the wedding banquet, but they refused to come.
Again he sent other servants, saying, Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my banquet; my bullocks and my fat calves are killed, and everything is prepared; come to the wedding feast.
But they were not concerned and paid no attention [they ignored and made light of the summons, treating it with contempt] and they went away—one to his farm, another to his business,
While the others seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and put them to death.
[Hearing this] the king was infuriated; and he sent his soldiers and put those murderers to death and burned their city.
Then he said to his servants, The wedding [feast] is prepared, but those invited were not worthy.
So go to the thoroughfares where they leave the city [where the main roads and those from the country end] and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.
And those servants went out on the crossroads and got together as many as they found, both bad and good, so [the room in which] the wedding feast [was held] was filled with guests.
Matthew 15:27 (Amplified Bible)
She said, Yes, Lord, yet even the little pups (little whelps) eat the crumbs that fall from their [young] masters’ table.
The Jews were first invited, given priority over the Gentiles, they are the children, while the Gentiles are the dogs. But the first invited to the banquet in the Kingdom of Heaven rejected the invitation of the LORD JESUS because they thought to themselves they could have it by works and by the Law. They boasted of Moses instead of JESUS that is right before their eyes. They called the Only Source of Salvation as demon-possessed. They did this even the LORD JESUS testified of Himself as the "I AM" the GOD ALMIGHTY, their eyes can't see because it's covered by their self-righteousness. The LORD JESUS CHRIST invited the Jews to Salvation by Grace, but the Jews already thought to themselves they already got it through Salvation by Law.
John 8:58 (Amplified Bible)
Jesus replied, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, before Abraham was born, I AM.
John 1:17 (Amplified Bible)
For while the Law was given through Moses, grace (unearned, undeserved favor and spiritual blessing) and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Now the LORD JESUS will also have to invite us all in, the Gentiles as we are called "as many as you find", it has to be this way, for the LORD JESUS wanted to save all His creations. The sad part is we are not children of GOD, we are created by GOD but we are not children of GOD. We are only given this right when we accept the LORD JESUS CHRIST into our hearts.
John 1:12 (Amplified Bible)
But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name—
John 14:2-3 (Amplified Bible)
In My Father’s house there are many dwelling places (homes). If it were not so, I would have told you; for I am going away to prepare a place for you.
And when (if) I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also.
IX. CONCLUSION:
We have received a much greater key, the keys to the palace of Egypt is Benjamin, now we the Israel of GOD are the keys to the palace of King David.
Isaiah 22:22 (Amplified Bible)
And the key of the house of David I will lay upon his shoulder; he shall open and no one shall shut, he shall shut and no one shall open.
Galatians 6:16 (Amplified Bible)
Peace and mercy be upon all who walk by this rule [who discipline themselves and regulate their lives by this principle], even upon the [true] Israel of God!
Praise, worship, glorify, adore, bless, and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You have given us the Key to the Kingdom of Heaven, and You are that Key and You reside within us.
