=== Life Sketch ===
Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall: The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him: But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:) Even by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb: The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.
Deuteronomy 33:13-17
Blessed of the Lord be his bland, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath, And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon, And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills, And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren. His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.

He was sold into slavery by his brothers, who were jealous of their father's favoritsm toward him. Taken to Egypt, Joseph rose to authority in the house of Potiphar, only to be imprisoned on the false accusations of Potiphar's wife. Released after interpreting Pharaoh's dream, Joseph rose in Pharaoh's favor. He was reunited with his family when, as governor of Egypt, he helped them during a famine.

(Josephus, Ant. of Jews, Book 1 chap 8:2) "Now the posterity and sons of these men [sons of Jacob], after some time, carried their bodies, and buried them at Hebron: but as to the bones of Joseph, they carried them into the land of Canaan afterward, when the Hebrews went out of Egypt, for so had Joseph made them promise him upon oath"
Bible Dictionary Chronology Table (birth 1745 BC, death 1635 BC)
BIOGRAPHY: His father [Jacob] loved him above the rest of his sons, both because of the beauty of his body, and the virtues of his mind, for he excelled the rest in prudence. This affection of his father excited the envy and the hatred of his brethren; as did also Joseph's dreams. Joseph was thus sold by his brethren into Egypt, by reason of their hatred to him; and how he there grew famous and powerful, and had his brethren under his power.
(Josephus, Ant. of Jews book 1 chap 6:1) Joseph was ow grown up to 30 years of age, and enjoyed great honors from the king, who called him Psothom Phanech (the revealer of secrets).

=== THE KING JAMES VERSION OF THE HOLY BIBLE ===
THE KING JAMES VERSION OF THE HOLY BIBLE: Genesis 46:19---The sons of Rachel Jacob's wife; Joseph, and Benjamin. And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On basre unto him. And the sons of Benjamin were Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, and Naaman, Ehi, and Rosh, Muppim, and Huppim, and Ard. KING JAMES VERSION OF HOLY BIBLE: Genesis 37:2---These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethern; Joseph brought unto his father thir evil report. Genesis 37:26-27---And Judah said unto his brethren, what profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood? Come and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he is our brother and our flesh. ANd his brethren were content. KING JAMES VERSION OF HOLY BIBLE: Genesis 41:45-46---And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went all over the land of Egypt. And Joseph was thirty years old [so thirty years old when married to Asenath] when he stood before the Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went throughout the land of Egypt. KING JAMES VERSION OF HOLY BIBLE: Genesis 41:50-52---And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him. And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh (Genesis 46:20; Exodus 29:42-43; Leviticus 16:2; Joshua 17:1, 5 and Alma 10:3): For God said he hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house. And the name of the second called he Ephraim (Doctrine and Covenants 113:4; 133:30-34): For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. KING JAMES VERSION OF HOLY BIBLE: Genesis 46:20---And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On bare unto him. B IBLE DICTIONARY: page 716. Joseph son of Rachel, Jacob's second wife (Genesis 30:22-24: 37:3). An extensive account of his life is given in Genesis 37-50. The story is especially instructive in showing the discipline of misfortune and also that the Lord rewards his obedient children according to their faithfulness. The story of Joseph is also an illustration of the way in which God works in history, preserving his people. Joseph's Valor in resisting the allurements of Potiphar's wife is an unequaled example of faith, chasity, and personal purity. His protection was his faith, as illustrated by his words: "How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God" (Genesis 39:9). In the New Testament, Joseph is mentioned only once (Hewbrew 11:21-22), as an example of faith. Joseph obtained the brithright in Israel because he was worthy and because it was his natural right. When Reuben, the actual firstborn, lost the privilege by transgression (1 Chronicles 5:1-2), Joseph as the firstborn son of Jacob's second wife, was next in line for the blessing. Joseph was a visionary man, a dreamer and interpreter of dreams, "a man in whom the Spirit of God is" (Genesis 41:38). Special blessings and prophecies on the head of Joseph and his posterity are found in Genesis 48:1-22; 49:1, 22-26 and Deuteronomy 33: 13-17. When Joseph died, in Egypt at age 110, he was embalmed; but, in keeping with his own previous request, he was kept from burial until Moses and the children of Israel took his bones to Canaan, to be buried next to his father and other ancestors (Genesis 50:22-26; Exodus 13:19; and Joshua 24:32). Latter-day revelation confirms many of the biblical details about Joseph and adds other important facts (see 2 Nephi 3: 4-22; 4:2; Alma 10:3; 46:23-27 and Joseph Smith's Translation of Genesis 50). It is through latter-day revelation that the larger mission of the family of Joseph in the last days is illustrated. The tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, Joseph's children, were among the ten tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel, and thus among the "lost tribes". Also one portion of Joseph's descendants came to America about 600 BC and establishedtwo great peoples. The record of their doings is called The Book of Mormon. It has also been primarily Joseph's descendants whom the Lord has called upon the first in these last days to carry the gospel to the nations of earth, in compliance with the covenant God made with Abraham.

=== 125th Great Grand Uncle of Lawrence W. P ===
125th Great Grand Uncle of Lawrence W. Pavlowich. Joseph (Hebrew, “he shall add”), in the Old Testament, the 11th son of the patriarch Jacob, or Israel, by his favorite wife, Rachel. According to the account in Genesis 30-50, Joseph was the firstborn of Rachel. Joseph was envied by his brothers, particularly after Jacob expressed his partiality toward him by giving him a “coat of many colors,” and they sold him into slavery. Taken to Egypt by his master, Joseph later won the favor of the pharaoh by interpreting his dream and prophesying from it seven years of prosperity to be followed by seven years of famine. The pharaoh made Joseph his highest official and charged him with collecting food to be used during the years of famine. When the famine came, the Egyptians were able to survive as a result of Joseph's foresight. Joseph's brothers came to Egypt for supplies, and Joseph revealed himself to them. In the reconciliation that followed, Jacob moved his entire family to Egypt and settled in Goshen, where his descendants remained and multiplied until Moses led them out of Egypt. The story of Joseph was used by the author of Genesis to account for the Israelites' presence in Egypt before the exodus. Moses carried Joseph's bones during the exodus march and subsequently buried them at Shechem. Hebrews (people), group of tribes of Semitic stock that, according to tradition, migrated from Mesopotamia to Palestine during the 2nd millennium BC. Some scholars, however, trace their origin to the Wilderness (that is, the Sinai) rather than to Mesopotamia. The Hebrews moved to Egypt, where they were enslaved. When released from bondage in Egypt under the lawgiver Moses, they journeyed through the Wilderness and thereafter, under Joshua, conquered and settled Palestine. The term Hebrew is applied in the Bible to Abraham (see Genesis 14:13). Etymologically, the name Hebrews seems to mean “those who pass from place to place” or “nomads,” a designation applied to the m by the Amorites. It is generally assumed, although denied by some scholars, that the Hebrews are the people called Habiru or Habiri in the tablets found at Tall al ‘Amarinah, Egypt; written about 1400 BC, these were found in 1887. This assumption coincides with biblical tradition; the Amarna correspondence, however, makes no reference to the origin or ethnic character of the Habiru. In Genesis 40:15, Joseph explains to the Egyptians that he had been kidnapped from “the land of the Hebrews”; in Exodus 2:6, the daughter of Pharaoh recognizes Moses as “one of the Hebrews' children.” The implication of these sources is that in early times the Israelites were known to foreigners as Hebrews. In later times the Israelites applied the name to themselves, as in Jonah 1:9. Contributed by: Samuel Sandmel
