JUDAH’S CONCERN
FOR HIS FAMILY #
LESSON TEXT—Genesis 44:18-34.
GOLDEN TEXT—How shall I go up tc
my father, and the lad*be not with me?—
I Genesis 44 :34.
The family is the fundamental
unit of society, and is therefore ol
more importance than the church,
the state, or the social order ol
which it is a vital part. Every force
which encourages the breakdown of
the sacred relationships of the home
and family is set for the destruction
of society itself.
Men have too often chosen to go
the way of the flesh, and therefore
they have disregarded God’s plan
and purpose. But the home is just
as sacred as ever in His sight, and
brotherly love still finds a high
place among the virtues of real
men.
The family comes before us as we
‘ continue the study of Joseph’s life.
As we study it we bear in mind Jo
i seph’s dealings with his brethren,
. who as yet did not recognize him as
, the one they had sold into captivity.
He was bringing them kindly but ]
definitely to the point of real repent- I
ance, so that he could show himself j
i gracious to them.
1 To do so he had brought disaster I
upon them. Being happily on their
way homeward with a new supply
of food, they were overtaken and
proved to be thieves, and Benjamin,
the beloved of their father Jacob,
stood condemned to death by their
own words.
In that crisis the mouths of the
others seemed closed, but Judah,
who had really saved Joseph’s life
(Gen. 37:26, 27), and who had appar
ently finally come to himself as a
man of essential goodness, pleaded
for Benjamin’s life.
That plea presented a truly sac
, rificial brotherly love, as he mani
fested
I. Courage (v. 18).
Easy rests the yoke of family life
as long as all is joyful and pros
perous. But when adversity strikes,
when sorrow comes, or sickness, or
sin, then the true test of devotion is
at hand.
It was a brave and manly thing
for Judah to stand before the one i
whoffi he knew only as the man who
was “even as Pharaoh.’’ The cir
cumstances were all against him.
He expected the flaming anger of
the offended ruler. His brethren had
collapsed in despair. It was one of I
those dark hours which come to
every family - when someone must
demonstrate true love by being
strong-hearted and fearless.
11. Intelligence (vv. 19-29).
We have become so accustomed
to accomplishing things by the use
of words that we are in danger of
substituting speech for action. Even
in times of sorrow or need we send
a well-worded card or telegram, and 1
regard our mission as accom
plished.
Words have their place, but there
comes a time when they must be
coupled with intelligent action.
Crises call for more than a cheerful
smile or an encouraging word, much
as they may mean in such an
hour. We must be prepared by our
close contact with our loved ones to
speak and act with vigor and as
surance.
111, Self-denial (vv. 30-33).
One step deeper goes the devotion
of this man to his father and his
brother. He had done no wrong that
merited punishment, but evidently
his brother Benjamin had been
guilty. Had he been of the spirit of
Cain he would have said, “Am I my
brother’s keeper?” and let him an
swer for himself. Why should Judah
suffer for another? Why should he
allow himself to be imprisoned in
a strange land to save his father
from sorrow and his brother from
what seemed to be the just reward
for his deeds?
Ihus reasons the man of the
woi Id, but such is not the language
of the true brother. He says, “Let
thy servant abide instead of the
lad as a bondman.” Well and cour
ageously spoken!
IV. Love (v. 34).
Love for father and brother under
lies all of the courage, conviction
and self-sacrifice of a man like
Judah. In his younger years, and
possibly under the influence of his
brothers, he had failed in that re
spect, but now his real devotion to
his brother was evident.
That affection was a real, power
ful and beautiful thing, and yet it is
but a faint prefiguring of the affec
tion of the One who “sticketh closer
than a brother,” who “though he
was rich, yet for your sakes he be
came poor, that ye through his pov
erty might be rich” (Prov. 18 24
II Cor. 8:9).
Let us improve the opportunity to
review our relations with our own I
family, to determine whether there
is aught that we in intelligent and !
courageous self-sacrifice should do 1
for our own. Concern for family
will pay rich dividends, especially
in these days of broken homes and
disturbed personal relationships.
Love will do more than anything
1 else to hold us together.
