**Joseph**
While it is nowhere asserted that Joseph was a type of Christ, the analogies are too numerous to be accidental. They are:
(1) both were especial objects of a father's love [Genesis 37:3](../../../kjv/genesis/37/3); [Matthew 3:17](../../../kjv/matthew/3/17); [John 3:35](../../../kjv/john/3/35); [John 5:20](../../../kjv/john/5/20).
(2) both were hated by their brethren [Genesis 37:4](../../../kjv/genesis/37/4); [John 15:25](../../../kjv/john/15/25).
(3) the superior claims of both were rejected by their brethren [Genesis 37:8](../../../kjv/genesis/37/8); [Matthew 21:37-39](../../../kjv/matthew/21/37-39); [John 15:24](../../../kjv/john/15/24); [John 15:25](../../../kjv/john/15/25).
(4) the brethren of both conspired against them to slay them [Genesis 37:18](../../../kjv/genesis/37/18); [Matthew 26:3](../../../kjv/matthew/26/3); [Matthew 26:4](../../../kjv/matthew/26/4).
(5) Joseph was, in intent and figure, slain by his brethren, as was Christ [Genesis 37:24](../../../kjv/genesis/37/24); [Matthew 27:35-37](../../../kjv/matthew/27/35-37).
(6) each became a blessing among the Gentiles, and gained a Gentile bride [Genesis 41:1-45](../../../kjv/genesis/41/1-45); [Acts 15:14](../../../kjv/acts/15/14); [Ephesians 5:25-32](../../../kjv/ephesians/5/25-32).
(7) as Joseph reconciled his brethren to himself, and afterward exalted them, so will it be with Christ and His Jewish brethren [Genesis 45:1-15](../../../kjv/genesis/45/1-15); [Deuteronomy 30:1-10](../../../kjv/deuteronomy/30/1-10); [Hosea 2:14-18](../../../kjv/hosea/2/14-18); [Romans 11:1](../../../kjv/romans/11/1); [Romans 11:15](../../../kjv/romans/11/15); [Romans 11:25](../../../kjv/romans/11/25); [Romans 11:26](../../../kjv/romans/11/26).
