made and it was very good , and the evening and morning were the sixth day. Also God says in James 1:13
basically that God can't be tempted or Tried and that he Tempt no man. Another point He is always endeavoring
to keep man out of the soup so to speak. Here's the question did God put the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil or did the enemy slip it in and Eve and Adam went for it when God said don't. Because the true God doesn't
deal in confusion. Like I said in the beginning this is spit balling and a perpective.

responsible for them. These four were very close praying for each other when the pressure was on and not once
doubting under life threatening circumstances.
As long as the marriage to a second person exists they 'Always Continuously commit adultery'? They CANNOT be forgiven? Of course this is UNscriptural, as there is only 'ONE' UNpardonable sin; ie
"Wherefore I say unto you, ALL Manner Of Sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against The Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men." Mat 12:31
Thus, there CANNOT be TWO 'UNpardonable sins,' Correct?
And ONE 'other' doctrine? ie
Of course, this 'thinking' is no surprise, as Many believe there are TWO 'baptismS' for us, today, Under God's PURE GRACE, when God teaches there is 'Only' ONE Baptism:

Thus, I thank God For His UNsearchable Riches Of Truth that "CHRIST died for ALL of my sins, and was Resurrected, According To The Scriptures," for my ETERNAL life! Amen?

In chapter 2, it was recorded that the king (Nebuchadnezzar) dreamt in the second year of his reign. So the question is, did this event (of the dream, its revelation and interpretation by Daniel) occur while Daniel and the other three (mentioned above) were still "in school" or was it another King named Nebuchadnezzar after Cyrus as stated in the last verse of chapter 1.
The clarification requested borders around the chronology of events, to know if Daniel had revealed and interpreted the dream before himself and the friends were introduced to the king after the 3 years of schooling?
Thank you for the anticipated clarification.

Some say He will put his desire in your heart , others say he will know your desire , and will give .
What say you ?
Joseph knew how much God had blessed him despite what his brothers had done to him. They did not know all of the details of ow God worked in Joseph's life yet. So, Joseph was speaking from a place of greater knowledge of God than they had. No wonder the brothers were a bit dumbfounded.
Interesting that Joseph said that he was as a father to . Was Pharaoh much younger than Joseph? I love that Pharaoh was very happy to meet Joseph's family. He was very generous to invite the whole family to Egypt to be taken care of by Joseph. There was to be five more years of famine, but Pharaoh must have known that Joseph had put away enough food for many neighboring peoples to come and get food.
Joseph gave God all of the credit for the good that came to him from the sinful way his brothers treated him. He told the brothers to not be bothered about what they had done. How good it must have been for them to know that he had forgiven them. Even after all of these years, the brothers were still keenly bothered by the communal sin they shared concerning Joseph.
When Jacob was told Joseph was alive it says his heart fainted and that then he was revived. Did he die and was revived? Or did he just faint? to Jacob, Joseph was brought back from the dead.
They all were heading to Egypt. Did Jacob know the prophesy God had spoken over Abraham about their sojourn in Egypt?
On to the next chapter.
The brothers told Joseph that their father would surely die of grief if Benjamin did not return with them. So, the drama continues!
I find it interesting that the text says that Joseph used the cup for divination. Was this part of his Egyptian training or was it part of the gift of dreams, and fore telling that God had given him?
