Commentary by Edwin Reynolds:
"Joseph was very happy with the arrival of his extended family. After the initial festivities, he decided to help them with the choice of a place to live. In view of Pharaoh's appreciation of Joseph, the probability was great that he would offer to his brothers important offices in the service of the king, but this would expose them to idolatrous and corrupting influences. Thus Joseph instructed his brethren to tell Pharaoh that they were shepherds, even though they knew that the Egyptians considered shepherds to be a degrading activity. When the king knew that Joseph's brothers were shepherds, he gave him permission to establish his relatives in whatever place he deemed most convenient. Joseph chose Goshen as a suitable place, because it was provided with good pastures and plenty of water. There his relatives could worship God far from the corrupting influences of the Egyptian culture. Joseph had in mind the best for his family. In the same way, we should choose places of residence and professional activities that are favorable to our children's development and spiritual well-being, far from the demoralizing customs of the world. Lord, help us to be prudent and wise like Joseph!" ❤️ Jump to Daily Bible Reading https://www.revivalandreformation.org/bhp/en/bible/gen/47 Our accounts in other social networks:

10: Jesus Opens The Way Through the Veil – Teaching Plan
Key Thought: The ascention of Jesus to heaven is central to the theology of the Hebrews. It marks the beginning of Jesus’ High Priestly ministry on our behalf.
March 5, 2022
1. Have a volunteer read Leviticus 16:1,2 Leviticus 10:1-3.
- Ask class members to share a short thought on what the most important point is in this passage.
- What warning do we have in these passages?
- Personal Application: Why should we not be afraid to draw near to a holy God? What are the conditions for us to be able to draw near? Share your thoughts.
- Case Study: One of your relatives states, “Is there any other church that teaches the heavenly sanctuary and Christ’s ministry for us there? Why does your church think there is a judgment day in 1844? Wasn’t that based on a mistake?” How would you respond to your relative?
2. Have a volunteer read Hebrews 10:19-22.
- Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
- How do we follow God’s lead into the heavenly sanctuary as He invites us to?
- Personal Application: What accusations could Satan make against you before God? How much would He have to lie to seek your condemnation? Share your thoughts
- Case Study: One of your friends states, “What does it mean to be able to enter into the holiest through the veil through His flesh and blood by a new and living way? And what does it mean to have our hearts sprinkled and our bodies washed?” How would you respond to your friend?
3. Have a volunteer read Hebrews 12:22-24.
- Ask class members to share a short thought on what the main idea of this text is.
- In what sense have we “arrived” at the heavenly Jerusalem in the presence of God?
- Personal Application: How do we make the promise of eternal life real in this world so full of pain and suffering? Share your thoughts.
- Case Study: One of your relatives states: “This talk about eternal life in heaven with no sin, no evil, all good is just a fantasy to help us feel better about our lives here and now.” How would you respond to your relative?
4. Have a volunteer read Hebrews 12:18-21.
- Ask class members to share a thought on what the most important point in this text is.
- What was the experience of Israel at Mt. Sinai?
- Personal Application: How would we even presume to even think about approaching such a holy God, let alone boldly, in light of Israel’s experience? Share your thoughts.
- Case Study: Think of one person who needs to hear a message from this week’s lesson. Tell the class what you plan to do this week to share with them.
(Truth that is not lived, that is not imparted, loses its life-giving power, its healing virtue. Its blessings can be retained only as it is shared.”Ministry of Healing, p. 148).

Tuesday: The Need of a Veil
Veils have a double function. The term Hebrews uses for veil (katepetasma) could refer to the screen of the court (Exodus 38:18), the screen at the entrance of the outer apartment of the sanctuary (Exodus 36:37), or the inner veil that separated the Holy Place from the Holy of Holies (Exodus 26:31-35). These three veils were both entrances and boundaries that only some people could cross.
Read Leviticus 16:1-2, and Leviticus 10:1-3. What warning do we have in these passages?
The veil was a protection for the priests as they ministered before a holy God. After the sin of the golden calf, God said to Moses that He would not accompany them in the way to the Promised Land lest He consumed them because they were a “stiff-necked people” (Exodus 33:3, NKJV). Thus, Moses moved the tent of meeting and pitched it far off, outside the camp (Exodus 33:7). After Moses interceded, however, God agreed to go with them in their midst (Exodus 33:12-20), but He established several measures to protect the people as He dwelled among them.
For instance, Israel camped in a strict order that created a hollow square in the middle where the tabernacle was pitched. In addition, the Levites camped around the tabernacle in order to protect the sanctuary and its furniture from encroachment by strangers (Numbers 1:51, Numbers 3:10). They were, in fact, a kind of human veil that protected the people of Israel: “But the Levites shall camp around the tabernacle of the testimony, so that there may be no wrath on the congregation of the people of Israel. And the Levites shall keep guard over the tabernacle of the testimony” (Numbers 1:53, ESV).
Jesus, as our Priest, has also been our veil. Through His incarnation, God pitched His tent in our midst and made it possible for us to contemplate His glory (John 1:14-18). He made it possible for a holy God to live in the midst of an imperfect people.
Think about what it meant that the Creator God, the one who made the universe, would dwell among His people, who at that time were a nation of escaped slaves. What does that teach us about how close God can be to us? |
