“...that one day you will bow to me!” Joseph told his brothers. They were not amused. Genesis 37 is a tale of jealousy and envy, dreams and deception, and ultimately betrayal. Joseph, the favored son, shares dreams of greatness. These dreams were revelations from God, but coming from a haughty teenager, they seemed to be nothing more than arrogance to his siblings. Thus, what begins with a coat of many colors and a father’s favoritism ends with a brother sold into slavery.

The Rev. Dr. Curtis Deterding, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, FL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Genesis 37.
