The Brothers final test

This is the pinnacle of the story between the Joseph and the brothers. This chapter is broken up into two pictures, or illustrations. One of regeneration, verses 1-17, and the second of saving grace and it's fruit. In the intro we added a third picture of the brothers sinful nature brought out in chapter 37. Doing this we have a picture of all of our lives to some degree who are saved. Our fallen nature apart from Christ, our point of regeneration, and our salvation and its fruit.
