Mount Moriah(where Abraham almost sacrificed Isaac) and Golgotha(Where Jesus was crucified) is in the same region. I believe that God advanced his mission to reflect his glory in this story by using this story in order to prophecize Jesus's death as a sacrifice. God already planned to save us by sacrificing Jesus two thousand years ago.

20,000 Roman soldiers under the command of Publius Quinctilius Varus in Germany are killed while in a long convoy line through the Teutoberg Forest. Many years later Emperor Augustus, desperately needing those legions, went around the palace late at night muttering, "Varus, give me back my legions!"

In the same way that Jacob wore animal skin and tried to be like his brother. Jesus put on a human body and became a human to sacrifice himself and rid us from our sins in John 19.

Joseph's life wasn't easy at all, but with perseverance and wit, Joseph was able to become the 2nd in command of Egypt. Joseph's life impacted me because it taught me to persevere and have hope. Romans 5:3, "Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance;" I have to learn from my experience and also from the life of Joseph to improve my perserverance. So I wouldn't fail my violin exams again and in other areas of my life.

In Genesis 17:4, God said, “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations." We can see this fulfilled in the modern world today. Since all Jews and Arabs originated from Abraham, Abraham has around 400 million descendants.
