[1] {kings that reigned in the land of Edom}
It is characteristic of Scripture that the kings of Edom should be
enumerated before the kings of Israel. The principle is stated in
# 1Co 15:46
First things are "natural," man's best, and always fail;
second things are "spiritual," God's things, and succeed.
Adam--Christ; Cain--Abel; Cain's posterity--Seth's posterity;
Saul--David; Israel--the true Church, etc.

[1] {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
# Ge 37:3 Mt 3:17 Joh 3:35 5:20
(2) both were hated by their brethren
# Ge 37:4 Joh 15:25
(3) the superior claims of both were rejected by their brethren
# Ge 37:8 Mt 21:37-39 Joh 15:24,25
(4) the brethren of both conspired against them to slay them
# Ge 37:18 Mt 26:3,4
(5) Joseph was, in intent and figure, slain by his brethren, as was
Christ
# Ge 37:24 Mt 27:35-37
(6) each became a blessing among the Gentiles, and gained
a Gentile bride
# Ge 41:1-45 Ac 15:14 Eph 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
# Ge 45:1-15 De 30:1-10 Ho 2:14-18 Ro 11:1,15,25,26
