bread in Genesis 47
BRED
This thing shows up in Genesis 47:12: “Joseph nourished his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 47:12
“Joseph nourished his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.”
