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 earlier chapters where God’s presence is explicitly affirmed. These verses invite readers to experience Joseph’s “dark night of the soul,” highlighting the spiritual weight of feeling unseen even while God is still silently at work.
