To "stand before" a king means to serve him as one of his of- ficers.. And Joseph went out from E the presence of Pharaoh, and went a:hroughout all the land of Egypt. In his new capacity as prune minister Joseph made a tour of the country, noting the agriculture o fthe various regions, especially, that he might know just how much grain lie night expect, and observing with particu- lar lar care all the granaries wherethe grain might be stored. And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls. It is probable that a fifth of the pre- sent unprecedented yield was suffic- ient for the sustenance of the inhab- itants. And he gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt. That is, all the grain not needed for the 'immediate sustenance of then eople. And laid up the food in the cities. The Egyp- tian monuments preserve many pic- tures of the granaries, of the recep- tion and storing of the grain, and of its registration by the scribes or clerks. The food of the field, which was round about every city, laid he up in the same. This is probably the most conspicuous and forcible lesson in history teaching the impor- tance and value of saving. And Joseph laid up grain as the ( sand of the sea, very much. Enough not only to supply Egypt through the seven'lean years, but also to sell to neighboring countries. And unto Joseph were barn two sons before the years of fanzine carne, whore Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera priest of On, bare un- to hini. We know how the loving Heart of Joseph must have missed, in his exile, the family life at Heb- ron, and especially the companion- ship of his young brother, Benjamin. And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh. It was custom- ary with the Hebrews to select for their children names appropriate to their circumstances or hopes. For, said he, Gocl hath made me forget al] my toil, and all my Father's house. This forgetting was "to the Hebrews, a mark of happiness in a new estate; see 1's. 45:10.", And the mune of the second called lie Ephriatn. From a Hebrew word meaning to be fruitful. For God hath made me fruitful in the land of my affliction. • Joseph, as always, re- ferred his prosperity to God, And the seven years of plenty, that was in the land of Egypt, canis to an end. Rain failed et the head waters of the Nile, and the great river was not flooded, as ostial. And the seven years of famine be- gan to come. The most complete parallel to Joseph's Famine was that which occurred in A.D. 1064-1071, when the people ate corpses and an- imals that died of themselves. Ac- cording as Joseph had said. The fa - Mine would confirm Joseph's repu- tation, as a prophet even more than the seven years of plenty, as men are more impressed by disaster than by prosperity.• And, there was fain. int in all lands, Especially in those near Egypt; Palestine, Arabia, and Syria. But in all the land of Egypt there was bread. The people had en- ough store of their own to tide them over the first year. And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. They had used up •their supplies, and they knew the government had full granaries. • And, Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do. Pharaoh was wise enough to let Joseph, who had carried his task through successfully thus far, cc.mplete it. 01eee8888n8ACE 8nnnnnneane RIBmR LL ROROOF Colored or plain.
