Most prominent about Joseph was his rise to Vizier for the Pharaoh of Egypt and ability to interpret dreams. He was favored by Jacob as the favorite son, and so was sold into slavery by his brothers in jealously. Despite the predicament, God was with Joseph and so he eventually rose to become his master's attendant.

| - Joseph was the first son of Jacob by his second wife Rachel, and the eleventh son Jacob had fathered. Joseph is mentioned in the Bible Old Testament Book of Genesis. Most prominent about Joseph was his rise to Vizier for the Pharaoh of Egypt and ability to interpret dreams. He was favored by Jacob as the favorite son, and so was sold into slavery by his brothers in jealously. Despite the predicament, God was with Joseph and so he eventually rose to become his master's attendant. After his master's wife tried to get Joseph to have an affair with her and he refused, she had Joseph imprisoned. Eventually the Egyptian Pharaoh began to having strange dreams, and when Joseph successfully interpreted them was given authority over the whole land of Egypt. When a famine arose in Canaan, Joseph's brothers came to ask for his aide, not realizing it was their brother. He then invited his family to move into Egypt.
