Portions: Genesis 37-39

Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons,
because he had been born to him in his old age;
and he made a richly ornamented robe for him.
When his brothers saw
that their father loved him more than any of them,
they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
Joseph had a dream . . ..
(Genesis 37:3-5)

Judah said, "Bring her out and her her burned to death!"
As she was being brought out,
she sent a message to her father-in-law.
"I am pregnant by the man who owns these," she said.
And she added, "See if you recognize
whose seal and cord and staff these are."
(Genesis 28:24-25)

Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt.
Potiphar, an Egyptian who was one of Pharaoh's officials,
the captain of the guard,
bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.
The Lord was with Joseph and he prospered,
and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
(Genesis 39:1-2)
