Joseph
His story is my favorite. Well, okay, when animated by Disney and Vision Video(find their content all on YouTube). When done for the general audience it's really a captivating watch full of character depth and nuance.
Some that I certainly feel should have been included in the book proper. LOLZ. First time ever the movie did it better.
But really, in any reality, in any time historians could pore over the story of the beloved youngest son, set to some grand destiny and so is overtly favored by his Father that his elder brothers grow jealous. And it isn't like they ever have anywhere to go rather than home where they have to watch. It becomes, understandable. Well, almost. And that wasn't even adding in the prophetic dreams this spoilt, overly arrogant boy couldn't explain quite well if movies are to be believed.
Without realizing the story really touches on themes of parental favoritism and how even without malicious intent, when you're blinded by some grand expectation of one child, you begin to put them on a pedestal they don't deserve. It deals with how those bonds between brothers at their strongest are degraded over time stewed in envy. A story that as a writer, itches to be modernized and considered from a more literary angle.
I for one, want to know what happened in Egypt with Joseph, Benjamin, and their Father now in the know. Benjamin was there when his brothers confessed and prostrated themselves to their brother! Youngest Benjamin was the only one who could "rejoice," that his brother was alive and not eaten by wolves! The lie that had been told to their Father and now thrown back at their faces from the brother they'd also lied to.
