As we take up chapter 44, we will witness a life-altering transformation of the brothers that will variously involve conscience, repentance, enlarged sympathies, intercession, sacrifice, and substitution - all wrapped in a growing brotherly love that speaks of Christ.

The temptation was at once a test and a path to transformation. This story, which has so many parallels to our own existence, is most powerful when we allow the events to speak for themselves as we follow the story line.
Let's see the incredible change in Judah and be encouraged as we read Genesis 44!
