What further intensified their hatred? Give the plan of God and the plans of men with regard to Joseph. What action did Joseph's brethren finally take with regard to him? Into whose household did the lad come in Egypt? What signs have we that in all this Joseph did not lose his faith in God, or lose his convictions as to duty? How did Joseph's exaltation come so suddenly? Give an illustration of this from modern Eastern life. How long was it between the sale of Joseph and the first appearance of his brethren to buy corn? Why did Joseph treat his brothers as he did when they first came to him? What remarkable proof have we of Joseph's steadfast faith in God's promise? What two most peculiar facts may be noted with regard to Joseph's body?

[Illustration] #SIGNIFICANCE OF EVENTS.#--The "going out" of the Hebrews from Egypt marked the beginning of their national life, and laws were given governing their relation to God and to each other.

(3) Life in the desert as leader of God's people.--Forty years.
