7.1.09 Gn39, Mk10

Genesis 39:
When Potiphar bought Joseph, the Lord was with him and Potiphar saw this and trusted Joseph with everything. In turn, the Lord blessed Portiphar's household. Portiphar left for a while and had Joseph take charge of everything. However, Potiphar's wife wanted to bed with Joseph. Joseph resisted every single time she asked, saying that he cannot betray his master and cannot sin against God. One day, she caught Joseph's cloack and Joseph ran away. However, she started telling everyone that Joseph tried to take advantage of her. Shen also told Portiphar when he came back. Portiphar was so angry that he threw Joseph into the jail. However, the Lord was still with Joseph, and was pleased with what he did, and blessed him. The Warden paid no attention to Joseph and even had him take charge of all te prisoners in the jail.

Mark 10
The Pharasees again tested Jesus asking if a man should divorce. Jesus said that in the law Moses gave, a man could divorce, but that's just because people's hearts were hard. He said that in God's commandment, men and women should leave their mothers and fathers and marry each other and become one flesh. Therefore, what was made one by God should not be separated by men.
Some people brought little children to Jesus to have him bless them. The disciples rebuked them. Seeing this, Jesus was angry and he rebuked his disciples, saying that whoever didn't receive the kindom of God like a child could never enter it.
There was a rich young man who came to Jesus and asked about how he could recive eternal life. Jesus told him about the commandments and he said he obeyed all of them. Then Jesus told him to sell everything he had and give to the poor and follow him. This he faild to do. Jesus sighed and told his disciples how hard it was for a rich man to inherit the treseare in heaven. It is harder than to have a camel go through the eye of a needle.The disciples then told Jesus that they follow Jesus alone. Jesus told them that they needed to leave their relatives as well for they would gain more, and along the way, they would receive persecution. However the eternal life would be ready for them in heaven.
Jesus again predicted his death and how people were going to treat him before his death. He also predicted that he was going to rise after three days.
James and John went to Jesus and asked if he could put one of them on his right and the other on on his left. Jesus said that he couldn't judge. And the positions were for the ones who were ready for the position. When the ten other disciples heard this, they were angry. Jesus told them that whoever wanted to come first much come last, and vice versa.
When they were in Jericho, a large crowd were with Jesus, and a blind man shouted to Jesus wanting the son of David. When people told him to stop, he shouted even louder. Jesus called to him and asked what he wanted. The man wanted to see, so Jesus told him that he faith had healed him and gave him vision.
