Genesis 37 Jealousy, Envy, Patience
37 Jacob lived in the land of Canaan where his father was an immigrant. Joseph was 17 years old and tended the flock with his brothers. While he was helping the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s wives, Joseph told their father unflattering things about them. 3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons because he was born when Jacob was old. Jacob had made for him a long robe (coat of many colors). 4 When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of his brothers, they hated him and couldn’t even talk nicely to him.
5 Joseph had a dream and told it to his brothers, which made them hate him even more. 6 He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had. 7 When we were binding stalks of grain in the field, my stalk got up and stood upright, while your stalks gathered around it and bowed down to my stalk.”
God is letting Joseph know of the good things to come to comfort him through the trials he must first endure.
This theme of sibling jealousy/rivalry hearkens back to Cain and Abel, Jacob and Esau and now Joseph and his brothers...
12 Joseph’s brothers went to tend their father’s flocks near Shechem. 13 Israel said to Joseph, “Aren’t your brothers tending the sheep near Shechem? 14 “Go! Find out how your brothers are and how the flock is, and report back to me.” 18 Joseph’s brothers saw Joseph in the distance, and they plotted to kill him. 21 When Reuben heard what they said,22 he said to them, “Don’t spill his blood! Throw him into this desert cistern, but don’t lay a hand on him.”.
23 When Joseph reached his brothers, they stripped off Joseph’s long robe, 24 and threw him into the cistern. 25 When they sat down to eat, they looked up and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, and decided to sell him to them for 20 pieces of silver. 26 Judah said to his brothers, “What do we gain if we kill our brother and hide his blood? 27 Come on, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites. 36 Meanwhile the Midianites had sold Joseph to the Egyptians, to Potiphar, Pharaoh’s chief officer
