Joseph vs Benjamin

Joseph vs Benjamin. Joseph was a man who found favour from God. In Hebrew the meaning of the name Joseph is: May Jehovah add/give increase. It was  seen even from his young age, he was the one who found favor with his father-who gave him a coat of many colors; found  mercy when his life was spared by one of his brothers, sold into potipars house,  again favoured by God and even in the prison cell. Also when Joseph was promoted to a great position in Egypt, he was constantly surrounded by God's favor _Genesis 39:5 NKJV
"So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house and in the field.The Lord was with Joseph in everything, and everywhere he was placed "___._  You may be a Joseph or Josephine reading this, move ahead  to know  who these people are in New Covenant. The Biblical meaning of the name Benjamin is: Son of the right hand. Benjamina/Benjamine is the classic feminine version of Benjamin,  also _ Batjamin.  As in Romans 9:8 NKJV
That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed"_Benjamin was blessed by Joseph who gave fivefold portion of blessing as found in Genesis 43:34 NKJV
Then he took servings to them from before him, but Benjamin's serving was five times as much as any of theirs." In the New Covenant_Jesus is the Heavenly Joseph_seated with Him you and I are the "Son of the right hand" He has purchased you by giving Himself as a ransom. He has all kinds of treasure and food for many years stored up for n His storehouse. He is ready and willing to bless the Benjamin/Batjamin_ generation. To Jesus who's the Mediator of New Covenant, who constantly intertercededs for His own, be all glory, domion and power. Amen.
