hello everyone in the previous episode we told you about the birth of the 12 tribes and the development of ysep in this para ysep is already 17 years old he was handsome his father Yakov loved him immensely for a few reasons because he was Rachel's son for whom Yakov worked seven years and he was the smartest he was very similar to Yakov and he knew that ysep would be righteous so made him a special Coat of Many Colors even though ysep wore the coat he never boasted when ysep saw the sons of Leia doing things that seemed wrong to him he would try to correct them but when they didn't listen he went to Yakov and told him it's important to know that the brothers were truly righteous and didn't do anything wrong from that day on they started to hate him one day Yosef had a dream he came to tell his father and brothers I dreamed that we were in a very large field there there are a lot of sheaves and we're bundling them all into bundles and suddenly my bundle stood up and your bundles bowed down to it they were jealous of him after some time ysep came to his brothers again and told them about another dream I dreamed that the Sun the moon and 11 stars were bowing down to me the brothers were silent and their hearts were full of anger towards ysep Yosef saw that they weren't responding so he told his father Yakov the dream in the presence of his brothers Yakov scolded him and said do you think that I your mother and your brothers will come and bow down to you I'll tell you a secret Yakov wasn't really angry he just pretended so the brothers wouldn't get even more jealous and hate ysf he knew the dream was real and even wrote it down with a quill and kept the note to see if it would actually come true after that the brothers went out to the city of sheem and stayed there Yakov worried about them he asked Yosef to go check on them ysf of course did it happily and Yakov accompanied him a little when they parted they studied the section about the decapitated calf together Yakov and ysep parted ways and ysep continued on to shahem there he met a man who told him that the brothers had traveled to a city called Daton he went towards them and as ysep approached the brothers said Here Comes the one who wanted us to bow down to him let's release the dogs that guard the Sheep to attack him but the dogs didn't move Shimon decided to shoot arrows at him but the arrows didn't fly they just fell hey what's going on here meanwhile ysep reached them and greeted them peacefully shimone and Levy said Now's the Time to kill him and we'll tell father that a wild animal devoured him it's important to note that the brothers were righteous and we don't fully understand what happened we know one thing that it was hashem's Will for them to go through such a process rayu vain heard about Shimon and Levy's plan and said let's throw him into a pit and take his coat slaughter a goat and stain the coat with blood then we'll tell father that a wild animal devoured ysep Shimon and Levy threw him into a pit and there were snakes and scorpions there but don't worry Hashem protected him so he wouldn't get hurt the brother sat down to eat suddenly a group of ishmaelites arrived Yehuda said what will we gain if we kill him let's sell him to the ishmaelites who are going to Egypt ysep was sold ruven arrived and saw that ysep wasn't in the pit he was shocked and asked what do we do now how do we tell father the brothers Drew Lots who will go and show Yakov the coat dipped in goat's blood and in the draw it was Yehuda who was chosen Yehuda went and told Yakov Yakov cried a great cry and refused to be comforted the brothers said to Yehuda it's your fault you're the eldest and we're our leader and if you had told us not to sell him we would have brought him back you're no longer our leader meanwhile yehuda's wife passed away and he went to another city there a son was born to him named Petes from whom the Messiah is destined to come do you know why because his mother Tamar was very careful about respecting others and she was willing to throw herself into the fire the main thing is that Yehuda her father-in-law wasn't embarrassed at this time ysep arrived in Egypt there he was sold from one person to another until he ended up with po one day poar saw ysf mumbling he was startled and asked what are you doing there witchcraft ysf replied God forbid I'm asking Hashem to make my path successful and to do everything the right way potifar said in that case you'll be in charge of my entire household and so it was puar's wife tried to persuade ysep to marry her but ysep refused he said I'll only do what Hashem tells me one day she grabbed him by His Garment and asked him to marry her ysf left the Garment in her hands and ran away puar's wife was outraged and told her husband that it was ysep who wanted to marry her pfar was angry and threw him in jail because of her but there there were two of parro's officials whose dreams ysf interpreted and they got out of prison the chief cup Bearer and the chief Baker what happened next and how did it affect ysep we'll tell you in the next episode
