Genesis 41, part 2: Messianic connection between pharaoh and Yosef

A classical-style painting shows young Yosef standing before Pharaoh in the royal Egyptian court. Pharaoh, seated on a grand throne and dressed in traditional blue-and-gold royal attire, places a signet ring on Yosef’s hand. Yosef wears a simple white linen garment with a gold necklace. Egyptian courtiers stand in the background beneath detailed hieroglyphic carvings. Overlaid text reads: “Messianic connection between Pharaoh & Yosef — Genesis 41 part 2.

Messianic figures in the Bible aren’t one-to-one representations of the Messiah, but the messianic figures of the pharaoh of Mitsraim (Egypt) and Yosef (Joseph) do give us a glimpse of the relationship between the Father and the Messiah.
