The Story of Genesis 37: Joseph’s Dreams and Betrayal

  Genesis 37 marks the beginning of one of the most compelling and dramatic narratives in the Bible—the story of Joseph.  This chapter introduces Joseph as the favored son of Jacob and sets the stage for a series of events that highlight themes of jealousy, betrayal, divine providence, and resilience.Joseph’s Favoritism and DreamsThe chapter opens by noting that Joseph was seventeen years old and that he was favored by his father Jacob above all his other sons because he was born to Jacob in his old age (Genesis 37:2-3).

God’s holiness demanded precise care in how offerings were handled, ensuring that His people worshiped Him with reverence and obedience. The Lord said, "The person who brings a burnt offering must keep the fire on the altar burning continuously; it must never go out." This fire symbolized God’s constant presence and the ongoing need for dedication and atonement. God also instructed Moses about the grain offerings: the priests were to take a portion as their own to eat, but they had to do so in a holy place, for these offerings were sacred. When it came to sin offerings, the priests were given specific duties to make atonement for the people. They were to remove the fat of the sin offering and burn it on the altar, while the rest of the meat was to be eaten in a sacred place by the priests only, symbolizing their role a...
