Genesis  50
¹⁹And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?

 ²⁰But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

 ²¹Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.

 ²²And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father's house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.

 ²³And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees.

 ²⁴And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

 ²⁵And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.

 ²⁶So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt

Dream the Dream -  In Color  -  

Matthew 26

²⁶And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

 ²⁷And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

 ²⁸For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

 ²⁹But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

 By Age -  one side -  that/those shared Christ to you        other side -  that/those  you shared Christ with   -   By Age.
