Jacob had twelve sons, but Joseph was the most beloved. His brothers, filled with envy and resentment, could not bear the special treatment he received. The coat of many colors, gifted by Jacob, only fueled their ire.

One day, in a fit of rage, Joseph's brothers seized him. They sold him to a passing caravan of Midianites who transported him to Egypt.

In Egypt, Joseph's honesty, intelligence, and hard work did not go unnoticed. He quickly gained the favor of his master, Potipar.

However, Potipar's wife falsely accused Joseph of misconduct, leading to his imprisonment. His faith never wavered, and he remained righteous.

In prison, Joseph's ability to interpret dreams became known. He correctly interpreted the dreams of his fellow inmates.

Word of Joseph's unique ability reached Pharaoh who was troubled by a recurring dream. Joseph was summoned to interpret it.

Joseph interpreted Pharaoh's dream as seven years of abundance followed by seven years of famine. He advised storing grain during the plentiful years.

Impressed, Pharaoh appointed Joseph as the governor of Egypt. Joseph's wise management saved Egypt from the famine.

Meanwhile, the famine had spread to Canaan. Unaware of Joseph's rise to power, his brothers traveled to Egypt for grain.

The brothers did not recognize Joseph. After testing them, he revealed his identity. They were filled with remorse for their past actions.

Joseph forgave his brothers and invited his entire family to Egypt. They settled in Goshen and flourished, eventually becoming the Hebrew nation.

Thus, the story of Joseph, a testament to faith, resilience, and divine providence, unfolds. Through adversity, he became a savior, not just for his family, but an entire nation.
