Keep in mind as you read about Israel’s affliction in today’s reading, that the Jews had gone down to Egypt and lived off the best of the land (Gen. 47:6). This luxury has now turned into sorrow and suffering. It is an inescapable principle of life! Sin promises freedom and happiness, but in the end, only leads to bondage and sorrow. Be constantly on guard against the “deceitfulness of sin”! (Heb. 3:13; Rom. 7:11; Eph. 4:22)
