1. Chapters 16-17 - Part 1: Yehuda and Yosef

   Rabbi Michael Hattin

   Chapters 16 and 17 of Sefer Yehoshua spell out the tribal boundaries of Yosef. Yehuda and Yosef were the most important tribes in ancient Israel. Their pivotal tribal roles were already indicated by the Divinely-ordained arrangement of the camp of Israel, during the peregrinations in the wilderness. This lesson will explore the traditional roles of the two tribes in earlier sources, and the effect of these roles on the boundaries on the two tribes in the division of the land.

2. Chapters 16-17 - Part 2: The Tribe of Yosef

   Rabbi Michael Hattin

   This lesson will examine the detailed borders of Yosef, and compare them with those of Yehuda. Both accounts preserve very lengthy and detailed descriptions of the respective tribal boundaries. The tribal portion of Yosef mirrors that of Yehuda, with several unique and parallel features. Both also include an emphasis on the challenges in inheriting and settling the land.

13. Vayeshev: The Fulfillment of the Decree of Bondage in Egypt

    Rabbi Gad Eldad

    In our parasha, we encounter the tense relationships that developed in the house of Yaakov. The members of Yaakov's family eventually find themselves moving from Canaan to Egypt, and from there the story progresses to servitude and slavery that continues for centuries. Avraham had already been warned about this enslavement in the Brit Bein Ha-Betarim.

    At first glance, these appear to be two parallel processes, without any connection between them; they simply meet at the end. In this study, we will attempt to demonstrate that in the course of the narrative, which seemingly advances through human actions, Scripture indicates that God is tracking the events for the purpose of ensuring that the story will conclude with the fulfillment of His promise.

14. "And Yisrael Loved Yosef"

    Rabbi Shimon Klein

    The story of Yosef and his brothers is a dark and painful episode in the history of the Jewish People. A son is sent by his father to his brothers, and they conspire to kill him. Eventually, they decide to sell him instead. How are we to understand the brothers’ conduct? And what is Yosef’s role in what takes place? In this shiur, we will examine the verses closely and try to attain deeper insight into Yosef, the brothers, and what really happened.
