Genesis 37:33-36

Genesis 37:33-36 TPT

Jacob recognized it instantly and cried out, “It’s my son’s robe! Some wild animal must have killed him. My son Joseph has been torn to pieces!” Overcome with grief, Jacob tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and mourned for his son a long time. All his sons and daughters came and tried to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He told them, “No, I will mourn for him the rest of my life, until I join my son in the realm of the dead.” Joseph’s father wept and wept for his son. Meanwhile, the Midianites took Joseph to Egypt and sold him to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard.
