Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָסַף (yasaph), meaning "to add" or "to increase." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent of the Hebrew name Joseph is Ἰωσήφ (Ioseph), corresponding to Strong's Greek Number G2501. This name appears in the New Testament, referring to the same individuals as in the Hebrew Bible, including Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Joseph of Arimathea. Usage: Joseph is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to several individuals, most notably the son of Jacob and Rachel, who became a prominent figure in Egypt. Context: • Joseph, Son of Jacob: Joseph is one of the twelve sons of Jacob, born to Rachel, Jacob's favored wife. His story is primarily found in the Book of Genesis, chapters 37-50. Joseph is known for his coat of many colors, his dreams predicting his rise to prominence, and his eventual position as a powerful leader in Egypt. His narrative includes being sold into slavery by his brothers, rising to power in Egypt, and ultimately saving his family from famine. Joseph's life exemplifies themes of forgiveness, divine providence, and redemption. • Joseph, Husband of Mary: In the New Testament, Joseph is the earthly father of Jesus Christ, a descendant of David, and the husband of Mary. He is noted for his righteousness and obedience to God's guidance, as seen in his acceptance of Mary's miraculous pregnancy and his protection of the young Jesus. • Joseph of Arimathea: A wealthy member of the Jewish council who, after the crucifixion of Jesus, asked Pilate for Jesus' body and provided his own tomb for Jesus' burial (Matthew 27:57-60).
