Parasha Vayeshev
Vayeshev, Vayeishev, or Vayesheb (וַיֵּשֶׁב—Hebrew for “and he lived”)
Parasha Vayeshev, in Genesis, details Yoseph's experiences in Egypt, beginning with his dreams that provoke jealousy among his brothers. They sell him into slavery, and he rises to prominence in Potiphar's house. Falsely accused, Yoseph is imprisoned but interprets dreams for fellow inmates. His insights reach Pharaoh, leading to his release and appointment as a high-ranking official. The Parasha explores themes of jealousy, resilience, and divine providence as Yoseph navigates trials. Vayeshev lays the groundwork for future events, including the reunion with his brothers, illustrating how Yoseph's journey shapes the destiny of the Israelite people in the unfolding narrative.
