Скачать или смотреть Joseph in Egypt: Savior of the World and God’s Promise to Abraham | Dr. Gary Anderson

In The Joseph Stories, Part II, Gary Anderson continues his exploration of the Joseph narrative in the book of Genesis, focusing on Joseph’s rise to power in Egypt and its theological significance.

Dr. Anderson examines Joseph’s new role as vizier under Pharaoh, where Joseph becomes responsible for administering Egypt during a time of severe famine. He discusses Joseph’s Egyptian name, Zaphnath-Paaneah, which Jerome famously translated as “savior of the world,” highlighting Joseph’s function as one through whom life and provision flow to many nations.
This role, Anderson explains, directly connects to Genesis 12, where God promises Abraham that his family will become a channel of blessing to all the families of the earth. Through Joseph, that promise begins to take concrete historical form, as God’s chosen family mediates blessing far beyond Israel itself.

This lecture situates the Joseph story within the broader biblical theme of election for the sake of others, showing how divine purpose unfolds through suffering, elevation, and service.
