2 Kings 8:1-29; Jeremiah 42:7-43:13; Hebrews 11:1-16
Also he made him a tunic of many colors. Genesis 37:3 NKJV
There are four garments mentioned in connection with Joseph’s life journey. He left the father’s house with a coat of many colours. He ran from Potiphar’s wife leaving a coat in her hands. When he went from prison to interpret Pharaoh’s dream he left his prison garments behind. When Pharaoh exalted Joseph, he received garments of fine linen. These garments and their progression serve as an illustration of the journey of the Lord Jesus from the Father’s house to earth, to the cross, and back to glory as described in Phil. 2:5-11. There was the tunic of Sonship, garments of a Servant, clothing of a Sufferer, and finally the robes of a Sovereign. —Gary McBride
