Genesis 37 kicks off the story of Joseph, a narrative filled with betrayal, hardship, and divine purpose. Though Joseph is betrayed by his own brothers, thrown into a pit, and sold into slavery, we see that God never abandons him. This chapter highlights a dysfunctional family, unjust suffering, and God’s sovereign hand working through it all. Joseph’s story also serves as a powerful foreshadowing of Jesus—loved by the Father, hated by his own, betrayed, and yet ultimately raised up to bring salvation. When life goes sideways, we are reminded to trust the One who is still weaving a beautiful tapestry from the mess.
There is no pit so deep, that God’s love is not deeper still.
