Arcana Coelestia 6216 Genesis 38 13. And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand on Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand on Israel’s right hand, and brought them near unto him. 14. And Israel put forth his right hand, and put it upon Ephraim’s head, and he was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh’s head, he put forth his hands crosswise; for Manasseh was the firstborn. 15. And he blessed Joseph, and said, The God before whom my fathers walked, Abraham and Isaac, the God who feedeth me since I am unto this day, 16. The Angel who redeemeth me from all evil, bless the boys; and let my name be called in them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow unto a multitude in the midst of the earth. 17. And Joseph saw that his father put his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, and it was evil in his eyes; and he laid hold of the hand of his father to remove it from upon Ephraim’s head upon Manasseh’s head. 18. And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father; for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head. 19. And his father refused, and said, I know, my son, I know; he also shall be for a people, and he also shall become great; and nevertheless his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall be the fullness of the nations. 20. And he blessed them in this day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh; and he set Ephraim before Manasseh. 21. And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die; and God shall be with you, and shall bring you back unto the land of your fathers. 22. And I give thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.       Third Round posts are short audio clips taken from Round 3 comments offered in the online Logopraxis Life Group meetings.
