First world power- Egypt's Empire Joseph the dreamer. Abraham is the great grandfather of Joseph. Abraham was commanded to leave his place UR and to go to Canaan "the promise land" and will make him a nation in there. Isaac was the son of Abraham whom the father of Jacob. Jacob has 12 son's and one of them is Joseph. Later on, Jacob's named was change into "Israel" And his 12 son's become 12 tribes and their descendants become nations of Israel. Due to envy of Joseph's brother, they sell him as slave to the Egyptian. But then, Pharaoh has a dream and Joseph interpreted the dream through God's help. The dream was interpreted as 7 years of abundant then another 7 years of famines. So the Pharaoh hired Joseph to lead the gathering of food during the 7 years of abundant. Finally when famines came, only the Egyptian has food but other nations doesn't know about the 7 years of famines. So people go to Egypt to buy food or they make trade for food. By this Egypt become more wealthy and powerful. The family of Joseph the Israelites are also affected by the famine. Through Pharaoh's consent, Joseph get his entire family from Canaan to Egypt. After so many years, when Joseph's generation died, the Egyptian make the Israelites as their slaves. They even killed all the male babies of Israel. But God save Moses and used him to lead the Israelites out of Egypt and go back to Canaan "the promise land." There are movies about Joseph the dreamer but most are not accurate. To get the accurate story, read Genesis chapter 37 to 50. https://youtu.be/aG8bSNpEGoE
