Reading Notes Part B: Egypt: The Two Brothers, Part One Extra credit

This reminds me greatly of the Story of Joseph, the prophet of ancient Egypt who wore a rainbow coat, was betrayed by his masters wife after becoming trusted.


Joseph is tempted by masters wife.

  1. Hi Jake! You missed the regular B window, but you can declare this for extra credit reading this week. And you are so right about the parallel to Joseph: it's one of the most clear cases where there looks like the Bible story was influenced by the Egyptian folktale. There a whole Wikipedia article about this Egyptian story if you are curious. It's one of my favorites! :-)
