Genesis 41:38

Description of Illustration: Vintage illustrations on the Life of Joseph can be given new life with color and scripture. Here is Pharoah speaking with his court about the dream interpretations of Joseph, "Can we find a man like this, in whom is the Spirit of God?" Genisis 41:38

The Pharaoh of Joseph's time considered himself a "political god" similar to those ideas of the Roman Caesars. He did not put himself above the idea that there might in fact be an actual God of all in heaven. Pharaoh's after him, however, became "drunk with power" and believed it unnecessary to answer to a supreme Being. This led to the demise of the kingdom of Egypt as it always does throughout human history both in biblical times and even now. God gives each ruler time to discover the true and only God, and then change the way they rule over people. However, if that ruler does not grow and he also begins to persecute the faithful, his kingdom will fall.

The Pharoah of Joseph's time was kind and learned to trust in the mercies of Jehovah.
