Joseph the Suffering Servant – Genesis E8

BibleProject

NOTE

Exile and Moral Innocence

The narrative of Joseph in the pit symbolizes the deep feelings of separation, loss, and loneliness that many experience, even if those feelings are not present in one's own life currently. This ties into a broader theme of exile present in the Book of Genesis, which illustrates the disconnection from divine blessings and presence, echoing the Adam and Eve narrative of leaving the Garden of Eden. Additionally, Adam and Eve are portrayed as moral infants, lacking the knowledge of good and evil, which aligns with the notion of innocence typically attributed to children. This connection emphasizes both the human experience of alienation from spiritual fulfillment and the innocence found in ignorance of moral complexities.
