Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers in Genesis 45 symbolizes God’s sovereignty, grace, and the power of reconciliation. He recognized that what his brothers meant for harm, God used for good to save many lives (Genesis 50:20). By forgiving them, Joseph demonstrated God’s mercy and reflected His character, offering healing and restoration to his family. This act also foreshadowed Christ, who endured suffering, forgave His enemies, and brought salvation. Joseph’s story teaches us to trust in God’s plan and extend forgiveness, even in the face of deep hurt.
