The life of Joseph is a type and shadow of Yeshua’s. See if you can come up with any additional ones that I may have missed! #yeshua #joseph
Joseph and Yeshua Comparison
Both had miraculous births
Both Obedient to their fathers, were about their Father’s business
Pure, no sin was written about them
Sent by His father to check on his brothers, Yeshua sent to the 12 tribes
Both were Rejected by his Brothers/children
Both had garments left behind, shroud, coat of colors
Conspiracy to kill, Judas, Judah Sold them out for money 20 pieces and 30 pieces
Both went peacefully and did not fight
For both, blood was shed and clothes were torn
Both Went away to prepare a place for there family
them, then repent and are ashamed for the hurt it has caused their father
Both falsely accused
Joseph’s dreams=the fulfillment of Yeshua
The coat of Colors was a sign of Royalty, both were king like and second in command on paper but in reality in charge of it all, just like Joseph
Brings Unity to the family
Both had families that did very little to help until the end after there sin convicts them
Both put in the ground, a well and a tomb
Both were raised up
Both were beaten, stripped, persecuted for the sake of his people
By his wounds we are healed, both the brothers and us
Both were tempted to sin, both rejected the sin
Both were innocent but had to suffer because of it
Both save their families by something that seemed like a terrible punishment
Both were not recognized until the time was right
Both went before the king, both were silent
Right hand of Pharaoh, right hand of the Father
Matthew 3: Voice from heaven “This is my beloved son whom I am well pleased” Loved by his Father more than other brothers (this is because He was the only sold out to his father)
Forgives the ones that wrong him
Restores the family to the long lost son-prodigal son son tie in?
Slow to anger
Brothers/Children reject Both were servant leaders
Both elevated above others
Baker, Butler like the Thief on the cross, one was remembered and one was eternal death
Joseph prepared the Bread of Life, Yeshua was the bread of life
Both reunite the nation of Israel after division
When yeshua reveal himself at the end it will be just a shocking to Christians, they will have their mouths open staring in disbelief
Joseph and Yeshua go to Egypt
Joseph was the same as pharaoh, he spoke for the Father, represented the father


It’s heartening to realize the kinship in Mashiyach that exists between believers, especially when they are complete strangers! The account of Yoseph has been a favorite of mine for some time now. and the parallels between his life and that of our Adon and Melech Y’shua, are so definitive as to make them much more than just happenstance! As a matter of fact, the message of Yoseph reinforces my belief that ancient Hebrews knew and taught about Mashiyach long before He appeared in first-century c.e. Judea as YHVH Y’shuati, YHVH our Salvation! As we look back upon His death for us, they looked forward to their deliverance as taught through the example set by the life of Yoseph. Thank you for this informative post on the shadow of The One who is yet to come again! Baruch HaShem YHVH Y’shuati
Best Regards.
