Creamed Comments on the Sunday School Leson. Joseph, Man of Mercy, Gen. 45: 3-15, for Sunday, June 30. » The famine which Joseph had i prophesied had finally affected Jacob and his fariiily to the point of seeking aid in Egypt where the granaries were full. Joseph put his brothers to quite a test, to see of they had changed in character , from the heartless, cruel men he remembered them to be. They met the test and Joseph made himself known to them. Joseph proved himself to be a man of true greatness ■ because of his forgiving spirit. B V. 3. "And Joseph said unto his brethren. 1 am Joseph; doth my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him; for they were troubled at his presence.’ ’ Joseph loved his father dearly and so expressed concern for him. The brothers were naturally dismayed to find out their brother was a high official of Egypt, and thought he would take revenge on them. ■ Vs. 4,5. "And Joseph said unto B his brethren. Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he Said. I am Joseph your • brother, whom ye sold into Egypt . . . Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry yourselves, that ye sold me hither; tor God did send me before you to preserve life.” The brothers’ fear made them step back and withdraw from him, but Joseph wished them to come closer B for a heart-to-heart conversation. ■ He did not want them to suffer further self-incrimination, for he was convinced their repeptance was genuine and so indicated that all that had happened to him was a part of God’s plan for him. Vs. 6,7. “For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing or harvest . . . And God _ sent me before you to preserve ■ you a posterity in the earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.” The promises made by God to Abraham were fulfilled by Joseph’s saving his people during the time of famine. By saving Israel, he preserved the remnant of the race through which the Messiah was ultimately to be born. The deliverance probably refers to their i exodus years later as a result of -a later pharaoh’s oppression. • V.B. "So nowjLwas not you that sent me hither, but God; and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt” Joseph was Pharaoh'a chief counselor and confidential friend and he thus had high standing in Pharaoh’s eye and ip the ’ estefcm of the pdcple. For the third t time, Joseph gave all the glory to God for his deliverance and his • success, and so, with great generosity and mercy, Joseph pointed out that God's providence and love overruled their crime. 9, 10, 11. “Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say “unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph. God hath made me lord of, all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: . . And thou shalt dwell in the land of I Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children’s children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast: . . . And there will I nourish thee: for yet there <jre five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast come to poverty.” Again Joseph referred to God's guidance in -making Him ruler of Egypt. Goshen was one of the-richest sec- • tions of Egypt, and he wanted his

family to have the. best of everything and be near him. V. 12. “And, behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth that speaketh unto you.” Previously Joseph had spoken to his brothers through arfinterpreter; now he spoke to them in his native tongue, Hebrew, as further evidence he was their brother. In the next verse, Joseph showed he was especially concerned about his father's welfare and urged him to be brought to him without delay. V. 14. “And he fell upon his, brother Benjamin’s neck, and wppt: and Benjamin wept upon his neck.’’ Benjamin was Joseph’s only full brother for whom he had the deepest affection. V. 15. “Moreover he kissed all his brothers, and wept upon them: and after that his brethrbn talked with him.” Joseph's memory of his long years of longing for his home caused him to weep. His brothers then talked to him freely. —Based on copyrighted outlines produced by the Division of Education. National Council of the Churches of Christ in the U.S.A., and used by permission.

The Tennessee Council of Churches unanimously adopted a resolution calling upon the state’s governor. Board of Education, and State Legislature to desegregate its public schools. It urged that the public school system b e brought "into harmony with the letter and spirit” of the 1954 Supreme Court school desegregation decision. Officials of the World Presbyterian Alliance re-established contacts with leaders of Reformed and Presbyterian bodies in Romania and Poland for the first time in more than ten years when the Alliance's Executive Committee met in annual session recently in Prague. The meeting also marked the first time in 81 years that the Executive Committee convened in eastern Europe. The Alliance comprises 67 Presbyterian and Reformed communions with a combined membership of more than 42,000,000 persons. Ow Preacher Says: Ralph Waldo Emerson once wrote: "One of the illusions of life is that the present hour is not the critical, decisive hour. Write it on your heart that every day is the best of the year. He only is rich who owns the day, and no one ’ owns the day who allows it to be invaded with worry, fret and anxiety. Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could.’’
