The Joseph of Genesis was appointed by Pharaoh to be the vice-regent over Egypt. Among other things, he was in charge of the granaries and storage and disbursement of grain (Genesis ch.41 and 47). Before that, Joseph had been employed as the steward over Potiphar's house (Genesis ch.39), and overseer of an Egyptian prison (after he had been placed there on trumped-up charges. Genesis ch.39-40).

There is also Joseph, the 11th son of Israel (and Tribe receiving the birthright promise) who was sold into slavery by his jealous brothers. He arose by God's blessing and became the 2nd in charge of all Egypt - saving his family and the Egyptian people. His two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, and Ephraim would become the predominant tribe of Israel. Some believe both tribes became the modern-day English speaking peoples.
The Bible doesn't give details, but he probably was provider and teacher, as most Jewish men were. He was a carpenter by trade.
The Bible doesn't given any details of him except at Jesus' birth and when Jesus was about 12. We can know from both of those accounts that he was a righteous man and good man.
Joseph was the legal father (but actually the step-father) of Jesus. His role in Jesus' life was to protect Him, be a role-model, and teach him his own trade of carpentry.
St. Joseph was the husband of Mary and the foster father of Jesus. He served as a loving and supportive protector of both Mary and Jesus, guiding and caring for them as they fulfilled their role in the divine plan of salvation. St. Joseph is often portrayed as a model of humility, obedience, and faith for believers to emulate.

Mary was Jesus' mother... there are two Mary's though... the other one was Martha's sister... Mary was much more patient than Martha when they were preparing their house for his arrival... When Jesus was there Mary washed his feet with her best perfume while Martha stared with disbelief.
he was his father on earth and he took care of him when he was growing up . his father was a carpenter .
Of course! Jesus is the Lamb of God, Mary is His mother. White represents His purity and innocence. Jesus "followed Mary to school," meaning He preached in the Temple. It was against the rules-- the Pharisees and Sadduces had Him persecuted because Jesus (the Lamb) was preaching against them. Still, "It made the children laugh and play." The people were happy because Jesus brought them salvation. Hope this helps! I<3 God
Joseph of Arimathea asked Pontius Pilate to release Jesus' body to him. Matthew says Joseph was a rich man, Mark and Luke say he was an honourable counsellor, while Johnsays he was a secret follower of Jesus. It is certainly possible that Joseph was all three, although somewhat unlikely that a counsellor, or member of the Sanhedrin, would be a secret follower of a person considered to be a rebel.The gospels say Joseph was from a town called Arimathea. Extensive searching through historical records and archaeological data have so far failed to identify this town, but it has been pointed out that, in Greek, Arimathea could mean 'best disciple town'. If so, this could be a play on words because, at least in the synoptic gospels, only Joseph remained faithful to Jesus when he was crucified, making Joseph the 'best disciple'.
A Miracle Play is a re-enactment of the lives and miracles of the Catholic Saints, usually Mary or St. Nicholas. These were extremely popular in the Middle Ages, the church having clamped down on all secular theater.
Joseph became a saint through the process of canonization by the Catholic Church. This process involves official recognition of his holiness, miracles, and intercessions. After a thorough investigation and verification of his life and contributions to the faith, Joseph was formally declared a saint by the Church.
A:We do not know how old Joseph was, and the Bible offers no clues. The Bible says that Mary was a virgin, which would mean she was still quite young, in those days probably just having reached puberty. A rich older man could have married a young virgin, but a village carpenter would be amongst the poorest of the poor, so he was probably not much older than Mary.The Church gradually developed an aversion to the concept that Mary would ever have sex, even after the birth of Jesus, developing the tradition that she remained a life-long virgin. This led to the problem of how to explain the presence of so many brothers and sisters mentioned in the Bible.One solution was to explain that these were not really his brothers and sisters, but cousins. Another popular solution was to say that they were born to Joseph from a previous wife. This would mean that Joseph would have been a much older man, probably in his forties at least. While this would explain why Joseph immediately drops out of the story after Jesus was twelve years old (Luke 2:42-43), it creates a greater problem by making James, brother of Jesus, too old for the role he seems to play in Paul's epistles. Thus the most likely answer, on the information available in the Bible, is that Joseph was in his late teens or early twenties.
Caesar Octavian/Augustus ruled at the time of Jesus Christ of Nazareth's birth. Octavian's stepson was Tiberius Caesar, whom ruled at Jesus' death. Jesus was executed under the Authority of Pontius Pilate, Roman Governor of Judea. Caesar Augustus ordered a census to be taken throughout the Roman Empire. (Luke 2:1) This census, although abhorrent to the Jews, forced Joseph to leave Nazareth and take Mary to Bethlehem (House of Bread).
