Joseph is loved by Jacob, but hated by his brothers. |
His dreams and the interpretation. |
Jacob sends him to his brothers, who counsel to slay him. |
At Reuben's desire they cast him into a pit; |
and afterwards sell him to the Ishmaelites; |
while Ruben grieves at not finding him. |
His coat, covered with blood, is sent to Jacob, who mourns him inordinately. |
Joseph is brought to Egypt and sold to Potiphar. |
