Contextual Overview

1 Then the head preacher asked Steve, "What have you got to say about this?" 2This is what he said, "Listen to me, all you. God, in all his glory, showed himself to our greatest of granddaddies, Abe. He did this while Abe still lived in Mesopotamia, before he moved to Haran. 3God said to him, 'Leave your ranch behind and strike a long trot toward the place I've shown ya.' 4So Abe did just that and stayed in Haran until his daddy had died. Then God led him to the land where we now live. 5"But God didn't give him the land. Not even a small water lot to keep his horses. But God did say he would give all the land to Abe's descendants. This was ironic because Abe and his wife couldn't have kids. 6God also told Abe his descendants would be in a foreign country as slaves for four hundred years. 7God said, 'But I'll pay back that country for all the abuse they'll give your family. When all is said and done, they will leave that country and come back here to worship me.' 8"God also taught Abe the pickle-clippin' promise. When Abe's son, Isaac, was born, he clipped his little boy's pickle on the eighth day just like God told him to. The ceremony continued with Isaac's boy, Jake, and on down the line to his boys. And it is Jake's boys who would become the twelve patriarchs of Israel. 9"Now these patriarchs were jealous of one of their brothers. They ended up selling their brother Joseph to some slavers from Egypt. But God was takin' care of Joseph 10and saved his hide from a bunch of troubles down there. God helped Joseph become the second most powerful man in Egypt behind Pharaoh.

Cross-References

Hebrews 11:7
It was by a heapin' of faith that Noah built him a big boat for his family to ride out the storm that wiped everyone else out. It was as simple as listening to God and doing what he said—even though no one had even heard of such a thing happening before. Noah's faith was the dividing line between who was saved and who was lost.
1 Peter 3:20
I'm talking about those who scoffed at Noah while he built his boat. Only eight folks survived the flood and the rest drowned like rats.
2 Peter 2:5
God got so fed up with our ancient ancestors that he destroyed the whole world with a flood. Only Noah and seven others were saved. Noah was a cowboy who urged righteous living and practiced what he preached.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren,.... That is, when the brethren of Joseph went a second time down to Egypt for corn, Joseph made himself known unto them, Genesis 45:1.

And Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh; for though it was known before that he was an Hebrew, see Genesis 39:17 yet it was not known of what family he was, who was his father, or his brethren, but now it was known, Genesis 45:16.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Joseph was made known - Genesis 45:4.

Joseph’s kindred ... - His relatives; his family, Genesis 45:16.
