Exodus 27:20-28:14; Psalm 73:1-28; Acts 15:36-16:15
Jacob called his sons and said, “Gather together, that I may tell you what shall befall you in the last days.” Genesis 49:1 NKJV
This scene has been referred to as “Jacob’s judgment seat” as he speaks to each one of his sons. This is private and personal; it involves review, rebuke and reward. It is a wonderful illustration of the judgment seat of Christ. The first three sons suffered loss due to unconfessed sin. Jacob had much to say about Judah, and even more about Joseph as Jacob saw Christ in these two lives. This is what will matter at our appearance before the coming judgment seat. —Gary McBride
