This is the tragic story of a half-Israelite half-Egyptian man who left Egypt with Moses' Exodus. It is told with added insight from the great Jewish Interpreter, Rashi (Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki).

In this bonus episode, W. Scott McAndless has a wide-ranging and very important discussion about the story told in Genesis 45:1-47:12 with Micah Belong the Wise Old Llama Enby, host of "The Word in Black and Red." I'm pleased to be able to share this with my followers.
What does Joseph's weeping have to teach us about the redemptive process? How can we reimagine our family dynamics in ways that bring healing? And how can you scam your boss even better?
Note: Some explicit language.
