Genesis 37:34-36
37:34 Then Jacob tore his clothes, put on sackcloth,
and mourned for his son many days.
37:35 All his sons and daughters stood by
him to console him, but he refused to be consoled. “No,” he said, “I will go to the grave mourning my son.”
So Joseph’s
father wept for him.
37:36 Now in Egypt the Midianites sold Joseph to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard.
