The Incredible Journey

Joseph Part 1: The Slave


Listen Later

Joseph belonged to a big, messy family of 13 siblings, four wives and one father. Joseph had a pre-eminence position as the oldest son of his father's most beloved wife. His father, Jacob, doted on him and lavished him with love. Jacob's unwise favouritism towards Joseph stirred up his older brothers' jealousy. While visiting them while they were away from home, grazing the family's extensive flocks and herds, Joseph's brothers sold him as a slave. It was a turning point in both Joseph's life and the life of his entire family. His grief-stricken father refused to be comforted, his guilt-ridden brothers couldn't escape the shame of what they had done, and Joseph himself faced the horror of a life of slavery in Egypt. Instead of choosing to despair, Joseph chose to surrender his life fully to the God of his father and therein lay the secret of his remarkably successful life. Join us as we take a look at the remarkable story of Joseph's journey into a life of slavery in Egypt.
