Joseph: Beloved, Hated, Exalted


Read by MaryAnn

(4.7 stars; 22 reviews)

I remember seeing the huge Matterhorn reflected, in its minutest details, in a small mountain lakelet, many miles distant; and similarly, the life of Jesus is remarkably mirrored in this touching story. In fact, there are scenes in the life of Joseph which probably foreshadow events that are timed to happen in the near future, and which depict them with a vividness and minuteness not to be found elsewhere on the page of Scripture. It is here only that we can fully realize what will take place when the Lord Jesus makes Himself known to his brethren according to the flesh, and they exclaim, "It is Jesus our brother!" (From the Preface) (5 hr 33 min)

Thought Provoking


(5 stars)

Great reader who reads with clarity and pleasant pace. The context of this book continues to be relevant to this day. Joseph points the way to Christ as one who suffered at the hand of his brothers yet forgave all the trespasses against him.


(4 stars)

really interesting. pretty deep and carefully developed. but it still managed to move along.
