Have you ever been picked on?
Who stood up for you or recued you?
Have you ever played a prank on someone? Did it go too far?
Description:
Joseph, Jacob’s favorite son was hated by his half brothers, because of the dreams he shared with them, which elevated him above the rest of the family. When an opportunity arises they take advantage of it and put him in harms way. Reuben starts to feel guilty and tries to rescue Joseph, but fails.
Read: Genesis 37:12-36
