Genesis 38-40
Feb. 20th, 2010 08:32 pmMore of Joseph's story, with a short interlude for a tale of one of his brothers, Judah.
* Judah has 3 children with a woman he's not married to and the first two get killed because God doesn't like them. Judah also has twin boys with the widow of his two sons.
* A rather big innacuracy in the Joseph musical, when he's sent to jail because Potiphah's wife says Joseph tried to sleep with her (when it was actually the other way round) he sings the moving song 'Close Every Door' but in the bible he actually has a pretty good time in jail, being put in charge of the other prisoners rather than kept alone in the dark as the song implies!
