Gn 37:1-4, Joseph, the son made his dad happy

Gn 37:1-4, Joseph, the son made  his dad happy

(Rev. JaeSoo Choi, Montgomery Yongnak Church)


1.  Jacob lived in the land where his father had stayed, the land of Canaan.
2.  This is the account of Jacob. Joseph, a young man of seventeen, was tending the flocks with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and he brought their father a bad report about them.
3.  Now Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because he had been born to him in his old age; and he made a richly ornamented robe for him.
4.  When his brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
