Parasha Vayigash (Then He Drew Near): Where God Pours Out His Blessing

December 6, 2013 The reconciliation between Joseph and his brothers provides a beautiful prophetic picture of the restoration that will come between Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) and his Jewish brothers and sisters. Just as Joseph said, “Ani Yosef, I am Joseph, your brother…” so will Yeshua one day say, "Ani Yeshua, I am Yeshua, your brother and Messiah.” Halleluyah! Joseph saved not only his own family, but also the Egyptians. So too, Yeshua came to save not only the House of Israel, but the people of every tongue, tribe, and nation of the earth.
