The latest retelling of the story of "Joseph" continues. This time around, they skipped the reason Joseph wound up in an Egyptian prison (his master's wife had a thing for him, he turned her down, and she lied to her husband about him).
I find it interesting that while Reuben was the one who didn't want to kill Joseph earlier, it was Benjamin that their father Jacob wanted kept safe. Meanwhile, I wonder, did any of them worry about Simeon, who was arrested and held captive-- possibly for MONTHS-- while, back home, they ate all they had bought? (Maybe Jacob didn't care that much about Simeon?) What a family.
Once again, the story of "Joseph" leads into the story of "Moses". This marked the 7th time the BOYS' LIFE series would cover this material.
Frank Bolle's only signature appears 3 times this year-- February, March & September.
