Entrapment.

For the characters in the Bible, there is no freedom from the will of the Scriptural God. He always gets His way in spite of the failings of the human beings. Likewise with us. As hearers of the Bible, we must pay close attention to the details in the story and make connections with other parts of the Bible. When we do that, we see that God’s will always controls the narrative. Like a shepherd with His flock, the Lord leads us, as hearers, to where He wants us to be: kept alive and fed with the bread of His instruction. Join me, Fr. Fred Shaheen, and my guest, Noël Neff, as we explore Genesis 44:1-13 in Episode 19 of A Light to the Nations.
