Joseph or Yosef (Hebrew: יוֹסֵף , Standard Yosef Tiberian Yôsēp̄, Arabic: يوسف, Yusuf ; "May Yahweh add"), was the eleventh son of Jacob and first son of Rachel in the book of Genesis. He is also known as Zaphnath-Paaneah. The favorite son of his father Jacob, Joseph is sold into slavery in Egypt by his jealous brothers, but rises to become Pharaoh's viceroy, and brings the Children of Israel (i.e., of Jacob) to Egypt to live in the land of Goshen. Joseph is one of the best-known figures in the Torah, famous for his coat of many colors. His story is told in Genesis, chapters 37-50 (one of the longest continuous narratives in the Bible). He is also mentioned prominently in the Qur'an as a Prophet, most notably in the 12th chapter, named after him. The shrine called Joseph's Tomb in Nablus is traditionally considered to be his tomb.
