Genesis 37:1 - 37:4
The Generations of Jacob
Now Jacob lived in the land where his father had sojourned, in the land of Canaan. 2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, when seventeen years of age, was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth, along with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives. And Joseph brought back an evil report about them to their father. 3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a varicolored tunic. 4 And his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and so they hated him and could not speak to him in peace.
