Week 2. Day 3. Genesis 36-40.
As you read the Joseph story, note how different this is to Genesis so far: the pace slows down, and for long periods God seems absent from the narrative.
Gen 37 Note how royal Joseph looks. What in the narrative suggests this? As we read, we might be wondering if Joseph is going to be the one who will put things right.
What picture is being painted of Joseph in these chapters?
Can you see any ways in which Joseph foreshadows Jesus in these chapters?
NOTE: Days 1-5 of each week contain the scripture reading for that week. Day 6 has just the 'key chapters'. If you want a briefer version of this plan that still takes you through the whole Bible, you could just read the key chapters featured on day 6. Day 7 has the podcast video where we discuss the week's reading.

The Bible OverBrew is a friendly virtual book group, helping you read the Bible in big chunks, preferably with a mug of tea! Maybe you've tried to read through the Bible before, but gave up when it felt confusing or too intense? We are here to help you! We provide notes and questions to guide your reading, and note ‘key chapters’ if you don’t have time to read it all. In our podcast at the end of each week we draw out the key themes, and how it all points to Christ. We’d love you to join us!
