DECEMBER 19, 2023 - Vayigash: Was Joseph the Golden Calf?

Vayigash: Was Joseph The Golden Calf?

In Parshat Vayigash, Joseph finally reveals himself to his brothers, and they realize that the Egyptian official they had bowed down to was none other than their long lost brother. What did Jacob's sons think about their powerful brother now? Why does Joseph have to emphasize God's role in orchestrating the events of their lives?

Join Ari Levisohn and Adina Blaustein as they explore the striking similarities between Joseph and the Golden Calf.
