The Substitute- Genesis 44

In Genesis 44, Judah offers himself as a substitute slave to free his brother Benjamin, demonstrating a profound transformation from the man who once sold Joseph into slavery. This voluntary, costly, and selfless act mirrors Jesus Christ's substitutionary sacrifice for humanity. Just as Judah was willing to lose his freedom to restore Benjamin to their father, Jesus willingly gave His life to restore us to our heavenly Father. This powerful example challenges us to examine our own love and consider who we're willing to sacrifice for, ultimately pointing us to respond to God's incredible grace through faith and action.
