    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Fifty. 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.

    When we look back at the life of Jesus, I find it helpful to look at it in segments and each segment comes with a theme. We see his birth and dedication in the temple; we’ll call that phase one.

The Bible is splattered with tears from Genesis to Revelation. In the Old Testament, Esther fell down before the King's and wept ...read more
