Chapter 46

Verse 5 – Typology: Pharaoh represents God the Father. God the Father has provided for believers in time. Notice the references to the wagons: 45:19, 21, 27; 46:5. The wagons represent God’s provision for believers. When the Jews left Palestine to come to Egypt they came in wagons, in the best system at that time for transportation. The believer can do it the hard way—walk, run, or crawl. Or he can do it the easy way and ride on the wagon—what God has provided. There is no difficulty or trial in this life for which God has not provided, and the Bible is filled with wagons, God’s provision for the believer in time. One of the great objectives is for us to discover and use the wagons. God intends, as it were, for us to ride, to be His guests, to allow Him to solve the problems.
