What is Joseph known for in the Bible?
Joseph was one of the sons of Jacob - who fathered the 12 founders of the 12 tribes of Israel. He had a gift for interpreting dreams, and, as his father's 'favourite' was given a coat of many colours (a real luxury in those days) making his brothers very jealous. To add insult to injury Joseph claimed he had dreams that predicted he would one day rule over them all. In a fit of rage they sold him as a slave to passing traders, when he was taken to Egypt to be sold to a rich man, Potiphar. He trusted Joseph as the head of his household, but when Joseph refused the sexual dvances of Potiphar's wife, she claimed he had attacked her, and so Potiphar had Joseph flung into prison. Whilst there, Joseph interpreted dreams and became famous. When the Pharaoh had disturbing dreams, he sent for Joseph who predicted seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine. Joseph was made overseer second only to Pharaoh to ensure that there were enough supplies stocked up to cope with the famine years. During these years, Joseph's family came to Egypt seeking food. At first they didn't recognise Joseph, and, after putting his brothers to a test of their contrition, revealed himself, and the family were united. The story of Joseph can be read at different levels - as a straight piece of Biblical history, or as a wonderful lesson in human nature and forgiveness.

Who was pharaoh of Egypt when Joseph Mary and Jesus went there?
Matthew's Gospel says that the young family fled to Egypt and stayed there until Herod died (4 BCE). The Gospel implies that Jesus was born several years before Herod died, so they would have stayed there several years. After his death, they began to return to their home in Bethlehem but, being warned in a dream, turned aside and travelled to Nazareth in Galilee. Luke's Gospel says they did not stay in Egypt at all. Luke 2:21-39 says that they went immediately to Jerusalem and then returned peacefully to Nazareth in Galilee.

Who was pharaoh when Moses sent the Plagues?
A:This should be an easy question to answer, but there is no mention in the extensive Egyptian records from the late Bronze Age,of the plagues, nor of the escape of a large number of slaves or the destruction of a great army in pursuit of those slaves. Without these records, we have establish who was the pharaoh of the Exodus and therefore at the time of the plagues. We can establish the biblical date of the Exodus from Egypt, and the Book of Exodus says the pharaoh at this time was also the pharaoh at the time of the plagues.The Bible very clearly places the Exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt around 1440 BCE (1 Kings 6:1), but we now know from archaeology that Egypt was at that time very much in control of Canaan and remained so until the thirteenth century, which brings us to the time of Ramesses II, or Ramses II, pharaoh from around 1290 to 1224 BCE. It is a historical impossibility for any earlier pharaoh to have been the biblical pharaoh. Moreover, it was Ramses II who built the city of Ramses (Pi-Ramesses), mentioned in the story of the Exodus, thus ruling out his predecessors. For these reasons, a more modern Jewish tradition redates the early history of Israel and places the Exodus much later.Unlike the biblical pharaoh, who was drowned in the Red Sea, Ramses II died peacefully as an old man and was buried in a tomb in the Valley of Kings. His body was later moved to a royal cache. For Ramses II to have been the Pharaoh who let the people go, we would have to move the date of the Exodus forward by around two centuries and therefore move Solomon's reign to a historically impossible period. We would also have to have Ramses escape the Red Sea, in spite of Exodus 14:28. Assuming there really was an Exodus from Egypt, which few scholars now accept, Ramses II could not have been that pharaoh, regardless of popular tradition.Ramses' son, Merneptah, ruled from 1213 to 1203 BCE and died peacefully as an old man, buried in the Valley of Kings. Merneptah's successor was also buried in the Valley of Kings, thus ruling out all possible pharaohs until long after the traditional date of the Exodus and even after Israelite settlers began to appear in the Canaanite hinterland.It is not possible to identify any historical pharaoh with the biblical plagues. The history of the Hebrews must have been in some way different to that told in the Book of Exodus.
