Saving Part 2


Genesis 41:48-49

Joseph collected all the food produced in those seven years of abundance in Egypt and stored it in the cities.  In each city he put the food grown in the fields surrounding it.  Joseph stored up huge quantities of grain, like the sand of the sea; it was so much that he stopped keeping records because it was beyond measure.

Genesis 41:55-57
Then all Egypt began to feel the famine, the people cried to Pharaoh for food.   Then Pharaoh told all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph and do what he tells you.”  When the famine had spread over the whole country, Joseph opened the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians, for the famine was severe throughout Egypt.  And all the countries came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph, because the famine was severe in all the world.
