What was God’s greatest gift and blessing to Joseph? Was it finally achieving power, prestige, and wealth in Egypt after years of suffering, or does the story of Joseph show us something deeper and much more significant about the nature and purposes of God?
Genesis 41:50–52
50 Before the year of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph. Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore them to him. 51 Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh. “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father’s house.” 52 The name of the second he called Ephraim, “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
