    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 63 – Gen 42 – Joseph as Hamlet – Opening Scene of a Play

    Fr. John and Danny continue to reflect on Genesis 42 by portraying Joseph as a Hamlet-like figure who “recognizes” his brothers and deliberately stages a dramatic re-enactment of past sins to awaken their consciences. We explore the dual themes of recognizing and remembering, showing how perception, memory, and God’s delayed promises shape both Joseph’s inner […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 62 – Gen 42 – Back Home in Palestine; Slowly Going Nowhere

    In this podcast, Fr. John and Danny reflect on Genesis 42 which shifts the focus from Joseph’s rise in Egypt back to Jacob and his sons, highlighting how famine forces a family still paralyzed by guilt, favoritism, and unconfessed sin to confront its past. They explore how the brothers survive for years through self-justification and […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 61 – Gen 41 – Nagging Questions

    This time Fr. John and Danny reflect on Joseph’s marriage to Asenath, daughter of an Egyptian priest, as a moment of deep assimilation into Egypt’s nobility and spirituality. Though Joseph outwardly embraced Egypt and named his sons to signify forgetting hardship and finding fruitfulness, the names reveal lingering wounds and unresolved ties to his past. […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 59 – Gen 41 – Emerging from the Dark Night into Enlightenment

    In this podcast, Fr. John and Danny describe Joseph’s rise from prison to Pharaoh’s court as the fruit of his spiritual “dark night,” where he learned true mysticism through self-emptying rather than self-empowerment. His enlightenment, marked by union with God, set him apart from Egypt’s magicians and elevated him to a godlike status in Pharaoh’s […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 58 – Gen 40 – Joseph the Forgotten

    In this podcast, Fr. John and Danny discuss how Genesis 40 is structured as a chiasm that centers on Joseph’s vulnerable plea to the cupbearer, revealing his fear of being forgotten in the “pit.” This episode uniquely exposes Joseph’s inner anguish as he feels abandoned not only by people but seemingly by God, contrasting with […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 57 – Gen 40 – Joseph’s Initiation to the Dark Night of the Soul

    In the podcast this time, Fr. John and Danny explain how Joseph’s suffering leads him into what Christian mystics call the “dark night of the soul,” a divinely permitted experience in which God feels absent so that deeper love and purification can occur. Drawing on St. John of the Cross, our hosts distinguish between the […]

    Deep Dive Into Scripture – Ep 56 – Gen 39 – Joseph’s Self-Mastery

    Fr. John and Danny explore how Joseph’s resistance to Potiphar’s wife reveals a life of disciplined self‑mastery shaped by God’s presence and Joseph’s deliberate pursuit of purity. His integrity leads not to reward but to deeper suffering, as God uses the dungeon to strip Joseph of pride and refine his soul for greater purposes. The […]
