Joseph

Genesis 37–50 · keyed to the ESV
4 partsabout 40 min each

Four parts follow one boy from a pit to the second seat in Egypt. He is sold by his own brothers, jailed for something he did not do, and then put in charge of the grain of a whole empire — and the story ends with the brothers standing in front of him, not knowing who he is. Every part pairs the story with an English vocabulary and comprehension workbook and one Lokosmos Treasure Wisdom domain: Egyptian households, prisons and dreams, grain stores and famine, and how a family was buried.

Recommended Bible edition

This workbook is keyed to the wording of the ESV® Bible (Crossway) — chapter and verse references, proper names and the vocabulary taught follow the ESV. Any Bible works for reading: read the referenced passages in your own Bible, knowing that the word-study and quiz answers follow the ESV’s wording. The workbook retells and asks about each passage in its own original wording and reprints no Scripture text; nothing in it reproduces copyrighted material. On the age of the earth, the length of the creation days and the historicity questions around Genesis 1–11, we state what the text says and note plainly where sincere Christians read it differently.
