Acts 7:9-16

The Betrayal of Joseph

Acts 7:9-16
9
“The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him,
10
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11
Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.
12
But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
13
On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s race was revealed to Pharaoh.
14
Joseph sent, and summoned Jacob, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
15
Jacob went down into Egypt, and he died, himself and our fathers,
16
and they were brought back to Shechem, and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem.
