God gave great dreams to Joseph when he was 17 years old. The dreams showed that his parents and brothers would raise him up. Later though, he was sold as a slave because of his brothers¡¯ jealousy and even imprisoned on account of false accusations against him, yet he never forgot the dreams. It doesn¡¯t mean that he was conceited and arrogant thinking that he would be an honorable person. Rather he lowered himself by repenting that he had not considered his brothers¡¯ hearts. Consequently, he became a great person that harbored all people as a second ruler of Egypt.
