What Does Our Adoption Look Like? [Genesis 48]

Jun 29, 2025 • Jon Nahlen

Genesis 48 shows the adoption of Ephraim and Manasseh. Jacob adopts Joseph's sons and gives Joseph a double inheritance in the promised land. Not only does it let us know why Joseph doesn't have a tribe named after him, but it also shows us what our adoption looks like! We are sons and daughters of God and co-heirs with Christ.
