    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 48 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 18, 2011
     | 7,047 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 48 In this chapter we will see the blessings of Jacob over the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh. We will also see ...read more

    We usually like for things to stay the same. However, sometimes an exchange takes place for our good. Some things need to be “Switched!”

    “Switched” Text: Genesis 48:1-2, 5, 8-20 1Some time later Joseph was told, "Your father is ill." So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim along with him. 2 When Jacob was told, "Your son Joseph has come to you," Israel rallied his strength and sat up on the bed. 5"Now then, your two sons born ...read more

    Joseph had been promoted politically to the highest position in the Egyptian government, but his father would promote him to a higher position spiritually – in God’s nation, Israel.

    Joseph’s Spiritual Promotion (46:1-50:26, esp. 48:1-20) 1. Sometimes promotions are not measurements of success. 2. The boss called one of his employees into the office. "Rob," he said, "you've been with the company for a year. You started off in the mail room, one week later ...read more

    The final chapter of Jacob's life provides a striking example of the power of a father's blessing. What can we learn that's can be applied to our role as fathers (and mothers).

He has lived a long life and he knows he’s at the end (48:1-2; 49:29, 33). - The words that Jacob speaks are words of blessing (49:28). - ...read more

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Forty-Eight. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that Joseph visits his dying father who blesses the two sons of Joseph. Matthew Henry (1714) – Genesis 48 Joseph visits his dying father. (Genesis 48:1-7) Jacob blesses Joseph's sons. (Genesis 48:8-22) Thomas ...read more
