Joseph, a figure from the Hebrew Bible, was indeed sold into slavery by his brothers, as depicted in the book of Genesis. This act of betrayal ultimately led Joseph to Egypt, where he faced numerous trials and eventually rose to a position of power. His story is a powerful tale of resilience, forgiveness, and divine providence.
In Genesis 37, the story of Joseph being sold into slavery by his brothers is depicted. This event marks the beginning of Joseph’s journey, leading him to Egypt where he faced trials before rising to a position of power.
Genesis 37:28 (NIV)
“So when the Midianite merchants came by, his brothers pulled Joseph up out of the cistern and sold him for twenty shekels of silver to the Ishmaelites, who took him to Egypt.”
