#Pharoh joseph

My favorite Andrew Lloyd Webber character trope is Elvis inspired, slightly promiscuous, Cassanova; which song consists of his praises and the female ensemble swooning.

so in regards to wpisode 8 of tmagp, i this episode reminds me to the biblical story of Joseph and the Pharoh where Joseph interprets the dream of the pharoh. the dream was about 7 full ears of corn being strangled by 7 dry, shrivled ears of corn and the 7 full cows being eaten by 7 skinny cows but remaining. skinny. the dream was a warning of 7 years of good harvest followed by 7 years of famine. just food for thought

I'm watching Joseph for the first time in a couple years, and I'm so confused why the pharoh looks so familiar... he's the sexist football coach from she's the man 😭 that's way too big of a plot twist for 00:20 in the morning

Genesis 44 Joseph now governor of all pharohs assets

[christessays]

Joseph foreshadows the Savior.

The history of Joseph, who saved his family and all Egypt from death due to starvation, foreshadows the Messiah to come, who has the power to save us, whether Jew or Gentile, from eternal damnation. Joseph was greatly favored by his father, Israel. Israel sent Joseph into the fields to find his brothers. Joseph sought his brothers and found them. But when Joseph's brothers saw him coming, they conspired to kill him. They stripped his coat off him and sold him into slavery for 20 pieces of silver. Jesus, too, was favored by His heavenly Father, who sent Jesus into the world in search of us, His brothers and sisters. But when Jesus "came to His own... His own did not receive Him". Those of the same bloodline as Jesus demanded that He be crucified. Jesus was eventually stripped and beaten and, through an exchange of silver, Jesus was betrayed by His own disciple.

After a lengthy imprisonment for a crime he did not commit, Joseph was called to serve Pharoh. Pleased with Joseph's service, Pharaoh exalted him to a high position of authority. When Joseph's brothers later come to him for help, Joseph forgave them for their betrayal of him and saved their lives by providing the food they needed. In these details, Joseph continues to foreshadow the Savior to come, who took the form of a slave, was crucified as a sacrifice for sins He did not commit, and was then raised from death. God the Father was "well pleased" with Jesus and exalted Him to the highest position of authority. Compare the account of Pharaoh's exalting Joseph in Genesis 41:40-44 with descriptions of Jesus in Eph. 1:19-22, Matt 28:18, Phil. 2:7-10. And compare the risen Christ in John 17:2, "You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given him" with Joseph's statement to his brothers in Gen. 45:7, "And God sent me before you... to save your lives by a great deliverance"

Genesis 42:6 This is the fulfillment of the dream Joseph had in Gen 37:7:"Then behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright, and indeed your sheaves stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf." Pharaoh had set Joseph over all the land of Egypt and all the people bowed the knee before him. God has given Jesus Christ a name that is above every name, and the day will come when all humanity will bow the knee to Jesus Christ (Phil. 2:10)

Genesis 45:5

Joseph forgave his brothers, the sons of Israel, explaining that God used their act of betrayal to bring him to Egypt, so he could save their lives.

Jesus, during the trial before his crucifixion, told Pilate that his authority to sentence Him to death was due only to God’s will: “You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above” Jesus, too, forgave those who crucified Him.

God I forgot how much Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was both a gay's dream come true and filled with so many almost naked women....for a movie about the scriptures.

[kettterdams]

so you mean to tell me that jake gyllenhaal played the pharaoh in joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat when he was in high school??? cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool

[thosebrotherslynch]

Me and a girl at work were behind the till singing along to 1D on the speakers and I admitted I didn’t really know the band that well (I don’t sorry) and she hits out with ‘yeah me either but I learned some because I went to school with Harry Styles and it seemed rude not to.’

EXCUSE ME

[vaguelyangelic]

Can knowing all the colours of Joseph's technicolour dreamcoat in order count as a 'special talent'?

[shiny-peach-water]

joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat is rlly underrated and is one of those things that doesn’t really have a “fandom”

so i would just like to introduce the idea of joseph x pharoh. that’s it. headcannons possibly coming soon

[funnygirlthatbelle]

Normally I’m pretty meh about opt-ups, but there are four I find essential and they’re all in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat:

“And I don’t speak E/gyp/tian very well”

“For I know we /shall/ find our own piece of mind” (final)

“A land /of/ our own” (final)

“My service to Pharoh has begun. Tell me your problems /mighty one/“

[shatar-aethelwynn]

If the pharoh said that the hebrews were citizens then why did he kill newborns. I think I worded that right

The short answer is that they weren’t citizens. They were pretty much legal aliens until they were perceived as a threat, and once they were a threat it was pretty much the king's moral duty to make them not one. It’s debatable whether a concept similar to our “citizenship” would have even existed at this time. The way we use the word now is tied to modern ideas that may not have been recognized by the people then.

In Exodus 1:9 the king “said to his people, ‘Look, the sons of Israel are more numerous than us’”, which marks a clear distinction in his mind about who his people are, and it doesn’t include the Hebrews. This sort of “they’re not part of us” language continues through the rest of the chapter with “the Egyptians” being marked as a separate group. If we consider that enough time had passed for a new king “who did not know Joseph” to take the throne then, under our modern ideas of citizenship, enough time should have passed for the Hebrews to be counted as Egyptians since that was where they were born, but clearly they are not. Again, when he orders the midwives to kill the children and they don’t, their argument is that the Hebrew women are not like Egyptian women (1:19), once more drawing a clear distinction between the two groups.

We also need to consider why he gave this order. The king’s fear is that the Hebrews will join his enemies and attack Egypt (1:10). This, again, draws a distinction between the two groups because it marks them as people who have no “real” tie to the land, or to the Egyptian people. This also explains the order to kill the boys and leave the girls (1:16). Boys become men, and men may decide to fight. By specifically killing the boys it's possible that he was attempting to prevent the Hebrews from becoming a stronger military force than he already perceived them to be.

People I have had a crush on: A handicapped boy in my primary class. I don't even remember what I liked about him but I think about him sometimes. I hope he's doing well. A dancer at my sister's dance competition. He was doing the disco dressed as a stormtrooper. No idea why he was a stormtrooper! It was so extra and so beautiful.

9. Favorite Bible story and why? This has got to be the Parable of the Lost Sheep for me and The Parable of the Sower. The lost sheep because i felt like that was me. The sower because it describes all the kinds of faith that people possess. I also love the story about the wedding at Cana. It's that one story where Mary and Jesus in the Bible and it's the story that showed how much they trust and love each other as a a child to a mother and a God to a mortal. What about you?

Oh I have a quite a handful too. I love the parables of the Prodigal Son. I can identify with him most! I like parable of Heaven being like a treasure hidden in the field! I love when Jesus is on the shore and calls out Come follow me and I’ll make you fishers of men. Jesus is so awe inspiring even His simple words. I like the story of Jesus healing ten lepers and only one comes back to thank Him- the only leper who thanked God for healing was a Samaritan foreigner. I love when St. Michael the angel rises up the ranks and cries out Who is like God?!, when Lucifer speaks of ascending. What a powerful moment. I like the story Moses putting plagues upon Egypt to make Pharoh let the Hebrews go. I like when Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego are thrown into the fiery furnace that they do not get burned by the flames and there is a forth person walking around with them, all four unburned and unharmed! I like when Nathanael asks Jesus how He knows him, Jesus answered, Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree. Wow. Can you imagine that feeling?! I also like when the multitude of angels visit the shepards in the field telling them of Jesus being born, and the visitation of the Three Kings. Lastly, I love when Mary and St. Joseph find Jesus in the temple after an emotional three day search and Jesus said, Why were you searching for me? Did you not know I would be in my Father’s house? I also like the leper approaching Jesus and asked to be healed, if Jesus was willing.
