Seventeen-year-old Joseph shares dreams that suggest his family will one day bow before him, stirring jealousy among his brothers. When Jacob sends him to check on them, they conspire against him, strip him of his robe, and sell him into slavery. They deceive their father with Joseph’s bloodstained garment, leading Jacob to mourn deeply. This chapter introduces the story of divine providence—that what others mean for harm, God uses for good. It teaches that God’s plans often begin in pain but lead to redemption, preparing the way for deliverance beyond imagination.
