2.66 The History of Dothan, the Ishmaelites, and Sheaves of Grain

This episode covers the Ishmaelites, the people to whom Joseph was sold by his brothers. Also, they were the decedents of Ishmael, Abraham’s son. I’ll cover their history as found in the Bible, as well as outside sources. Also, the relationship between the Ishmaelites and Islam is explored. I also touch on the city of Dothan. Finally, I explain what a sheave of grain is. Give up a few minutes of your time and listen, I’m sure you’ll learn something you didn’t know. Next week, I’ll cover the history of the Midianites and the concept of She'ol, both found in Genesis Chapter 37. If time permits, I’ll cover Potiphar, too. After listening, let me know what you think.
